Bort allt vad oro gör…

“Away, all that makes unrest, everything is but dust and ashes,” sang Carl Michael Bellman in the late 1700s.

During the summer period, between May and the beginning of October, we handled about 27 thousand tonnes of waste bales for our clients. Everything was then burnt to dust and ashes to provide hot water and electricity to households in the Mälardalen region. The bales were brought with RoRo vessels whose main task is to transport paper products to markets in Europe. The summer was warm. Handling went very well and we were able to keep our promise to the public of Oxelösund. “It will not create any inconvenience.”

Paper products put very high quality demands on the logistics chain. Any form of smell effecting the products is unacceptable.


This condition provides the desired quality level for waste imports. They must be dry. The bales must remain intact. They must not smell.


I want to pay great tribute to everyone involved in the shipping companies, the cargo owners, the carriers and our own terminal staff who have handled the flow as expected. Very well done.


“Neighbour, do exactly as I do, know that this oil brings good temper,” sings Bellman at the end of his chorus. We have just had a good dialogue with the public in Oxelösund. We have taken the public’s concerns seriously and demonstrated what we are capable of. And we are capable of a lot!
