We are now introducing Lessebo Colours, a new range of environmentally-friendly coloured paper, with maximal expression and minimal footprint.
Rooted in the Swedish forests
Lessebo Paper is located in a densely forested area right between large shallow lakes in the inland region of Småland. We have produced paper generation over generation, developing the most climate friendly paper in the world. It is in our nature to care and foster the surroundings for the coming generations. The result of our hard work is a fully biodegradable and recyclable paper, made of 100% TCF pulp. Produced with responsibility for our environment – and the coming generations.
More trees are planted than harvested
All forestry operations are FSC® and/or PEFC™ certified
Zero waste to landfill
The waste we cannot recycle is donated to local producers of biofuel
Energy from renewable sources
The waste energy supplies the houses in Lessebo with district heating
Lessebo Paper Studio
Lessebo Paper Studio is a platform where we together change the perception of what is possible to create out of paper. We have collected some of the most innovative and creative designers, sharing a mutual passion in our favourite material – paper.
Our brands
Welcome to the inspiring and diverse world of climate friendly paper. We have for generations developed our paper qualities and we frequently push the art of making paper beyond the limits.
