The first book printed on “Livonia Recycled by Lessebo Paper”.

Karl-Adam Bonnier’s autobiography En ny tid (”New Beginnings”) is the first book printed on “Livonia Recycled by Lessebo Paper”. 

Lessebo Paper, Livonia Print and Bonnier Books take the next step in reducing the ecological footprint of book production by launching a new paper, produced from recycled paper waste.

Through this initiative, Lessebo Paper collects unprinted paper waste accumulated at Livonia Print, and recycles it into high-quality paper for printing. This process does not only minimise waste but also reduces the environmental impact of paper- and book production.

Jens Olson, CEO of Lessebo Paper, emphasizes the significance of this milestone: “The launch of ‘Livonia Recycled by Lessebo Paper’ is another step in our commitment to the circular economy. We look forward to continued collaboration in promoting sustainability across the publishing sector.”

“Bonnier Books chose Karl-Adam Bonnier’s autobiography En ny tid (”New Beginnings”) to be the first book printed on this high-quality recycled paper. ‘Livonia Recycled by Lessebo Paper’ is a good example of finding new solutions to a traditional process, much like the theme of Karl-Adam’s book, where he describes the renewal of an old financial system through entrepreneurship and audacity. It’s a perfect match” says Albert Bonnier, Senior Publisher, Bonnier Books.
