We love the forest

 As a cooperative of 52,000 forest owners in southern Sweden, we know exactly where our wood comes from, because our members own it. 

Many of our members are sixth or seventh-generation foresters who regard themselves as custodians of their estates, nurturing them to pass on to the next generation. We are fully committed to sustainable forestry and sustainable forest management. About 70 percent of our members hold FSC® and/or PEFC™ certification. Södra’s membership, comprising many small-scale forest farmers with a range of ideas and targets, contributes to highly-varied and diverse forest characteristics.
