Forest as a Resource
Fibre Science and Communication Network is a multi-disciplinary research centre at Mid-Sweden University.
We work on improving the profitability of today's paper industry, and on finding new ways to use the Forest as a Resource. We engineer materials that are extracted from the forest industry material flows, and then further refined to provide sustainable alternatives to e.g. plastics. We also develop ways to use wood fibres, paper and board in new ways, for example in three-dimensional packaging structures.
