storaensoStora Enso expects to begin temporarily shutting down its Finnish mills in the near future due to the strike by the stevedores at Finnish ports.

The impact of the strike on Stora Enso's financial results is estimated to be approximately EUR 2.5 million per day.

"The impact of the strike will be wide and indefinite. The strike will severely tarnish the reputation of the Finnish forest products industry and its whole value chain," says Juha Vanhainen, Stora Enso Country Manager Finland.
