Over the weekend, a fire broke out inside the premises of Hylte Paper, formerly known as Stora Enso, in Hyltebruk. Shortly after 4 p.m., the emergency services announced that the fire had been extinguished, according to reports from SVT.
The blaze is believed to have started in a boiler room before spreading further inside the building. Eighteen emergency units were dispatched to the scene, working intensively to put out the fire and prevent it from spreading.
No injuries have been reported.
Stora Enso sold the facility to Sweden Timber at the beginning of 2023.
