Raw material and Finnish Forests
In Finland forest industry already today is an excellent example of circular economy. The raw material is fully used. Out of 2.2cbm of logs we can produce only about 1cbm of sawn timber but also the side products (bark, chips, saw dust) can be utilised as fossil free source of energy, for pellet production etc.
