Invitation to supplementary Consultation under the Swedish Environmental Code
Information in English
Invitation to supplementary consultation under the Environmental Code regarding Natura 2000
TreeToTextile AB is developing a new technology for producing textile fibers from cellulose derived from wood and plans to apply for a permit under the Environmental Code for its demonstration plant in Nymölla, Bromölla municipality. During the spring, the company has carried out a consultation process in preparation for the application.
During the consultation, the County Administrative Board indicated that the operation’s discharges to water may have such an impact on nearby Natura 2000 areas that a permit under Chapter 7, Section 28a of the Environmental Code may be required. TreeToTextile therefore invites stakeholders to a supplementary consultation on this matter.
The company has prepared a supplementary consultation document containing information about the Natura 2000 areas and how the operation may affect them. The document can be requested via email at maria.stjerndahl@treetotextile.com or by phone at +46 76 775 3178 (Niclas Nelson).
You are welcome to submit comments no later than July 17, 2026, to maria.stjerndahl@treetotextile.com.
This supplementary consultation concerns only impacts on the Natura 2000 areas. Comments that have already been submitted during the previous consultation do not need to be resubmitted.
Inbjudan till kompletterande samråd enligt miljöbalken
Information på svenska
Inbjudan till kompletterande samråd enligt miljöbalken avseende Natura 2000
TreeToTextile AB utvecklar en ny teknik för att tillverka textilfibrer av cellulosa från trä och planerar att ansöka om tillstånd enligt miljöbalken till sin demonstrationsanläggning i Nymölla, Bromölla kommun. Bolaget har under våren genomfört samråd inför ansökan.
Under samrådet har länsstyrelsen framfört att verksamhetens utsläpp till vatten kan medföra sådan påverkan på närliggande Natura 2000-områden att tillstånd enligt 7 kap. 28a § miljöbalken kan komma att krävas. TreeToTextile bjuder därför in till kompletterande samråd avseende detta.
Bolaget har upprättat ett kompletterande samrådsunderlag med information om Natura 2000-områdena och hur verksamheten kan påverka dem. Det kompletterande samrådsunderlaget kan beställas via mail till maria.stjerndahl@treetotextile.com eller på telefon 076-775 3178 till Niclas Nelson.
Välkommen att lämna synpunkter senast den 17 juli 2026, till maria.stjerndahl@treetotextile.com.
Detta kompletterande samråd avser endast påverkan på Natura 2000-områdena. Synpunkter som har lämnats tidigare under samrådet behöver inte skickas in igen.
The story behind the innovation
TreeToTextile started as a research project in Sweden, exploring new, better, and scalable ways to dissolve cellulose. This was initiated by the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE) and brought to life by the entrepreneur Lars Stigsson’s vision to use cellulose to revolutionize the textile industry.
Together with the industry leaders H&M Group and Inter IKEA group Lars founded TreeToTextile, later joined by Stora Enso. The shared mission was to provide a unique cellulose fiber through innovative technology and ensure its scalability to textile suppliers and brands globally.
In 2025, the Lenzing Group joined as a strategic partner, bringing extensive experience in fiber production to the company, and in 2026 becoming the majority owner.
Together, we continue to carry on the legacy of Lars, turning his idea into reality. Join us as we uncover the inspiring tale of innovation, sustainability, and the cellulose fibers that are shaping the future of textiles.
Better fibers to all.
Our fiber
Our fiber is a pure cellulose fiber, meaning that it is made from natural raw materials and is bio-based. Amongst other characteristics, the fiber has a natural dry hand-feel, semi-dull luster and high drapeability. It can serve as an alternative or complementary material to cotton, viscose, and polyester, proving useful both in its pure form and when blended in both textile and nonwoven products.
