Scandbio manufactures, markets and sells wood pellets fuel to Sweden, Denmark and the Baltic States as well as stable pellets for the Swedish market. The company provides both industrial facilities as well as municipal and state-owned operations, local entrepreneurs and individual home owners with 100 per cent renewable energy.

The transaction is subject to the requisite approvals by the competition authorities.
