Comments relating to the consumption of water: The majority of the water consumed during board production is drawn from Lake Mälaren. This is the third largest lake in Sweden, after Lakes Vänern and Vättern. Its surface area is 1,140 km² with a water volume of ~14.3 billion m³. Lake Mälaren spans 120 kilometres from east to west. Fresh water from the public network is not used in production.Comments relating to the consumption of recovered energy and materials: This product makes use of recycled paper and recycled gypsum. The paper liner used to encase the gypsum core is made of 100 % recycled paper fibres. The gypsum blend that is used contains more than 50 % recycled gypsum in the form of DSG, reprocessed internal gypsum production residue and recycled construction and demolition waste gypsum.An effective collection and recycling system for construction and demolition waste gypsum run by Gyproc AB and partners has both reduced the need for new raw materials and the need for landfill.
