Essity Unveils World-First Tissue Machine Operating on Geothermal Steam

On March 12, Essity unveiled the world’s first tissue machine powered entirely by geothermal steam at its Kawerau, New Zealand facility. This upgrade, costing NZD $20 million, reduces the plant's annual CO2 emissions by two-thirds, equivalent to removing 2,200 cars from the road each year. The new technology marks a 25% reduction in emissions and supports Essity's goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. The Kawerau Mill produces essential hygiene products like Sorbent, Purex, and Tork, and the company is celebrating 70 years of manufacturing in the region.
