Biofuels and biochemicals are natural evolutionary steps in wood-based value creation EVOLUTION OF WOOD USAGE bioMOLECULE Biofuels Biochemicals FIBRE Pulp, Paper and Packaging Label Biocomposite LOG Sawn goods Plywood Direction: Bottom to top. • Mankind has started using wood basically by utilizing the tree as such tens of thousands of years ago for heating or cooking. • Later on, technologies to utilize logs (e.g. for sawn goods or plywood) were developed, followed by processes that broke down the wood all the way to its fibrous constituents (for pulp, paper or labels). • Modern biofuels and biochemicals processes are now going even one step beyond by disintegrating the wood all the way to its (bio)molecular structure. • We regards this as the natural next step in the evolution of wood based value creation. UPM is developing new business with the potential for increasing added value in UPM’s value chain UPM aims to grow in biomolecule businesses. The Lappeenranta Biorefinery was the first significant investment in new innovative wood-based products, UPM BioVerno renewable diesel In 2013 UPM combined its biochemical related business initiatives to form UPM Biochemicals UPM Biochemicals offers and develops innovative, sustainable and competitive wood-based biochemicals. The product segments are chemical building blocks, lignin products, biofibrils and biomedical products TREE puu | © UPM Energy
