Stora Enso is planning to build a new sawmill in Imatra, Finland, Metsälehti reported (5-2-25). The project has reportedly been planned for a long time, but Stora Enso has not commented on the matter publicly.

The company’s application for an environmental permit and a permit to start operations was submitted to the Regional State Administrative Agency on April 30. The Agency’s information on the initiation of proceedings was made public on May 2, but it does not provide any other information about the project.

Currently, Stora Enso has the Kaukopää and Tainionkoski mills in Imatra, which produce pulp and consumer paperboard. Stora Enso’s sawmill closest to Imatra is the Honkalahti sawmill in Lappeenranta.
