Stora Enso rethinks business structure and organization 

In Finland, Stora Enso plans to launch a Group streamlining and structure simplification project intended to achieve annual fixed cost savings of EUR 200 million, including the earlier announced EUR 30 million in the Building and Living Business Area, with the full impact starting from the second quarter of 2014. Stora plans to change from four business area to three divisions by integrating the current Building and Living Business Area with the Printing and Reading Business Area in a new Division mainly focusing on mature businesses and geographies. The other two Divisions would be the existing Renewable Packaging and Biomaterials Business Areas, which would remain as they are and concentrate on growth markets and businesses, as well as innovation.
