Norra Timber processes timber from the northern forests.

Norra Timber is part of Norra Skog, a member-owned organization driven by making the forest owner's life in Norrland as valuable as possible for our 27,000 members. We care about sustainable forestry and a vibrant countryside. Our members contribute to the diversity and sustainable use of the forest, and in our industries, we optimize the utilization of the raw material from each harvested tree.

Our timber comes from one of the best forest districts in the world – northern Sweden. The harsh climate causes the forest to grow slowly here. This makes it slow-growing, fine-branched, and with dense annual rings. Therefore, pine and spruce from Norrland are considered some of the most esteemed wood raw materials. We humbly refer to it as “vintage timber.” We take great pride in noting that our northern Swedish forests are processed into climate-smart products used across large parts of the world.

Norra Timber's operations include three sawmills, three processing units, and a pole factory. We produce nearly 800,000 cubic meters of sawn timber, 250,000 cubic meters of planed timber, as well as approximately 60,000 turned pine poles and 150,000 chip bales per year. About 60% of timber sales go to export. The association also owns 30 percent of the Husum Pulp AB pulp mill. Within the Norra Skog group, over 600 people work, and the turnover amounts to approximately 5 billion SEK.
