UPM has been listed as the only forest and paper industry company in the Dow Jones Global and European Sustainability Indices (DJSI) for the years 2024-2025. The indices cover environmental, social and governance aspects of responsibility.

“We are committed to creating value for our customers by using sustainable, renewable resources, reducing our environmental footprint, and increasing our positive societal impact. Sustainability is a core strategic value for UPM,” says Sami Lundgren, vice president, Responsibility at UPM. 

This commitment is strongly visible in the company’s updated strategy published in September. UPM’s business portfolio is based on sustainable feedstocks and fossil-free energy, positioning the company for growth in renewable fibers, advanced materials, and decarbonization solutions, while graphic papers continue to generate strong cash flows. 

UPM has also successfully issued a new EUR 600 million Green Bond in 2024 under its Green Finance Framework. With the fourth issuance, UPM has further strengthened its position as one of the largest corporate Green Bond issuers in the Nordics, with a total of EUR 2,350 million issued.

“These Green Bonds link our financing to our sustainability goals and support our overall strategy,” Lundgren adds.
