Pulp&Paper Innovation that
adds Values to our lives.
connecting to our vision of paper’s future
When Moorim makes paper, it is making the planet greener.
Moorim uses wood from sustainably harvested forests to make the pulp and
uses the energy generated in the process to make paper in a smart way.
Moorim Environmental Management Strategy and conducts three environment policies with response for climate change, development and management of eco-friendly products, and operating eco-friendly systems. Moorim conducts eco-friendly policies in accordance with ‘Low carbon and Green growth’ policy of governments. Moorim will provide customers with accurate information with clear eco-friendly management.

Moorim has established a company-wide organizational system to minimize the impact of climate change. We are making various efforts to preemptively respond to laws and regulations through a dedicated organization, review climate factors when establishing business direction and investing in large-scale facilities, manage the financial impact of carbon credits, and systematically manage emissions through an inventory system.
The ‘black liquor,’ a mixture of lignin and other extracts left over from pulp production process, becomes a biomass fuel. Moorim burns the black liquor in a recovery boiler to produce steam and electrical energy, and the remaining ash is recycled into chemicals needed for pulp production through a chemical recovery process, contributing to environmental protection and reducing carbon emissions.
