SCA Curtain Wall

SCA Curtain Wall is developed to meet the demands of tomorrow’s architecture. Tested, approved, and ready for the market.

Slow-grown and responsibly managed forests are the foundation of the value SCA creates. In our competitive industries, the raw material is refined into products with a steadily growing long-term demand. With modern technology, we make full use of the tree’s potential, transforming it into climate-smart, high-quality products tailored to our customers’ needs, while new trees are planted to secure resources for generations to come.

With a well-developed and locally rooted industry, we contribute to a sustainable future where climate and nature values are at the core. We aim to be a clear driving force for sustainable material choices in the building projects of the future.
