Renewable energy for SCA plant in Poland
Feb 28 2011 SCA's site in Olawa, Poland, is its first production facility for personal care products in Europe to manufacture products with renewable energy only.
All electricity consumed in the Olawa plant, built in 1999, now comes from a green resource, the Suwalki Wind Park, which is located in the north-east of Poland, where there are favourable conditions for wind farms."A certificate confirms that the energy we consume comes from 100 percent renewable resources,” Senior Purchaser Marta Sokalska says."Not only does green electricity add to our environmental targets, it is also cost-effective and beneficial for the business,” explains Olawa plant manager Marcel van den Hurk.
