Domsjö Fabriker will save SEK 100 million through a restructuring program. This means that all costs will be reviewed.

 

Revenue should be increased through improved quality of the three main products cellulose, lignin and bioethanol.

 

The use of consumables such as chemicals, steam etc is reviewed as well as all agreements with suppliers, contractors, consultants etc.

 

 As part of the restructuring program, the organization will be changed, with the aim to reduce staffing by 50 FTE from today's almost 400.

 

It will be done through natural retirement and other solutions, but in the end, we might have to terminate people.

 

"Of course, this is a very sad situation, but it is necessary for the future. I am convinced that Domsjö Fabriker will come out stronger from this", says Björn Vedin, CEO.

 

The restructuring program covers the entire business, and trade union negotiations will start shortly. The goal for the new organization is to be manned by the end of November.
