Innovation for proﬁtable growth SCA has a long history of successful innovations. Successful innovation activities lead to differentiation and increased added value for SCA’s customers and consumers, thereby contributing to strong, market-leading positions and brands, and creating value for SCA’s shareholders and other stakeholders. SCA’s general innovation process is deeply embedded in the Group’s strategy and business model. It represents a fundamental framework for concept generation and innovation.6 This is SCA

Innovation activities Innovation in the hygiene business Innovation in the hygiene segment is a prerequisite for retaining and strengthening market shares, building strong brands and creating new values for customers and consumers. A faster innovation and launch pace are two focus areas. Innovation in Packaging SCA’s Packaging business area has innovation expertise in many areas throughout the organisation. Packaging seeks to develop optimal packaging solutions with regard to function, design, logistics, transport, and environmental footprint. Another innovation area is strengthening retail points of sale and reducing the complexity of the industry’s packaging solutions. Innovation in Forest Products Innovations are a tool used by the Forest Products business area to further strengthen its competitiveness. Efforts in this respect permit Forest Products to move up the value chain and produce products and solutions with higher value and margins. By this means, SCA differentiates itself from the rest of the industry, while also meeting the requirements of business partners and customers.8 This is SCA

Sustainability For SCA, sustainability is not just a buzz word. It is an integral part of our operations and a part of our strategy for growth and value creation. We have a long tradition of taking responsibility for people and for nature. As early as the 1950s, SCA had an extensive social programme for its employees. And our origins as a forest products company have given us a deep connection with and responsibility to the environment. All around the world, SCA is involved in sustainability initiatives based on our core values: respect, excellence and responsibility. We have a systematic approach and our intent is to be as transparent as possible. The foun- dation of our sustainability strategy comprises on four long-term targets.32 This is SCA
