By Public Technologies
  • Stora Enso will retain its Central European sawmills and building solutions business following a strategic review launched in November 2025.
  • Planned restructuring could affect up to 250 employees as the business faces slow market growth and rising costs.
  • The Brand sawmill’s small-log line in Austria is scheduled to close by the end of Q1 2027, avoiding significant investment requirements.
  • Wood procurement and the remaining production line would continue operating normally; other mills would serve affected customers.
  • Final decisions on the closure and employee impact are subject to stakeholder consultations.
