Biomaterials for a renewable future

Over 62 million tree seedlings. That is the number of seedlings Stora Enso planted or delivered to its customers in 2024. And its significance is something to celebrate especially today on the International Day of Forests, when we are reminded of the importance of maintaining these ecosystems as a source of food, livelihood and renewable materials.

In 🌲 Designers Forest Talks 🌲 three designers share their thoughts on how they can influence change on the industry. NeoLigno® by Stora Enso is a bio-based binder that makes a visible difference. If you want to lower emissions in your projects, NeoLigno® is the natural choice. Made from lignin, it is not only bio-based but also free from formaldehyde without compromising on the performance. By switching to NeoLigno you can replace harmful chemicals and fossil-based binders in various applications—especially in the construction and furniture industries. 📽️ Watch the whole Forest Talks roundtable https://lnkd.in/eRMCcUck

Great minds don’t think alike. Lennon needed McCartney, just as Pierre Curie relied on Marie. Likewise, our engineers, material specialists, and regulatory experts unite their strengths to bring you better options—powered by diverse ideas 💡

What a fantastic week at MIPIM in Cannes! We had many insightful discussions on how we can build more sustainably in the future—and how NeoLigno can play a key role in that transition. A huge thank you to Stockholm Business Region for hosting us in your fantastic booth and to Differ for this great opportunity. Exciting times ahead as we continue driving innovation for a more sustainable built environment! #SustainableBuilding #NeoLigno #MIPIM2025 #FutureOfConstruction
