2. ECOSYSTEM OF THE ARCTIC INDUSTRY
Operational environment and unique innovation platform
Worlds northernmost hub
of bio-, mining -, metal
industry and services
1,7 Mt of by-products and residues (excluding waste rock)
Responsible for 80% of Lapland’s industrial production, with over 5 billion EUR of exports annually (7-8 % of the total export value of Finland)
Industrial symbiosis estimated at 700 million EUR annually

Then we continue with secondary raw materials in Kemi-Tornio region in Southern Lapland where 1,4 Mt of by-products and residues with good utilization potential are generated annually. More than seventy trucks per day! Industry concists of… and is like miniature of industry cross-section or portrait in North Calotte.
This is the cradle of Ecosystem of the Arctic Industry! Two of the world’s northernmost pulp mills and paper and board mills and Sustainable use of raw materials: Sertified, responsibly managed and sustainable use of forests – More wood grows than it is used annually in Finland. Outokumpu Tornio is most integrated steel mill in the world. Outokumpu also owns the largest known chromite reserves in Europe, Kemi mine, and thus has unique competitive advantage in its access to raw material. The most significant raw material is recycled steel, and the recycled content in the ready-made products is in average more than 80%. Lot’s of arctic expertise in industry service companies. For example company called Tapojärvi which has their own plant inside Outokumpu where they are recycling and recovering metals and mineral back to production from slags and same time producing slag to by-product. Veinstone is left-over stone from mineral ore and it’s not included in the figures. Birthplace of a 1,3 million tons per year of industrial by-products, equals 25 000 trucks and that is almost seventy trucks per day all year round. But lot’s of potential is still to cash out in circular economy and industrial symbiosis point of view. Especially what comes to utilization of wastes and side streams: waste minimization is ongoing process, but We also need possibility to create symbiotic products from combinations of two or more streams.
