Borregaard is the world’s most advanced biorefinery

Integrated production system serving diverse markets

Trussel: Kortfiber eter seg innpå langfiber markedene

• Før brukte man 70% langfiber

(bartrær) i tekstiler,

• Nå bruker man 30% gran og 70%

løvtre

• Eter og acetat er foreløpig dominert

av langfiber

• Løvtreprodusenter er i ferd med å

trenge seg inn også på disse

markedene.

• Løvtre i lavkostland, plantasjer,

store enheter, kosteffektive

• Strategi for å overleve:

The Exilva Project

The first step towards commercialisation

• Exilva has the potential to become a new business area

• First plant to verify market and technology

– Location: Sarpsborg, Norway

– Capacity: approx. 2000 mt

– Investment estimate: 200-400 mNOK

– Decision on investment during 2014

– Construction time: approx. 18 months

Tosidig fokus i markedet:

• Nisjeprodukter for å toppe profit

• Volum produkter for å skaffe

størrelsesfordeler

Innovasjon Effektivisering

Tosidig fokus internt:

• Innovasjon

• Kontinuerlig effektivisering

Vær forberedt på dynamikk

• I et bioraffineri vil markedene

for de forskjellige strømmene

sjelden være i balanse

• Vær forberedt på dynamikk

• Velg fleksible teknologier og

alternativer som har mulighet

til utvikling

• Bygg en kultur som alltid er på

jakt etter muligheter og

forbedringer
