Our mill in Mönsterås

Södra Cell Mönsterås Flygfoto
One of the world’s most modern pulp mills, Mönsterås is also our largest with a production capacity of 750,000 tonnes per year of softwood and hardwood pulp. The mill's core business is pulp production, but it is also an important source of green electricity. And in 2020, Mönsterås started up the world’s first commercial biomethanol plant, confirming its position as a growing provider of biofuels.

At Mönsterås, we also produce district heating and pine oil which is converted into biodiesel. The mill is surrounded by raw materials grown by our members in a forestry region close to Kalmar Sound, some 10 kilometres from Mönsterås. The location is strategic, close to European highway 22, with Södra’s own harbour alongside the mill and the sawmill next door.

Is this the world's most connected mill?
