Mondi SCP Ružomberok

Mondi SCP in the central Slovak town of Ružomberok is not only the largest paper mill in Slovakia but also one of the most significant facilities of its kind in Europe. The factory has a rich history dating back to the 1880s, when the abundant timber resources of the scenic Liptov region were first utilized on an industrial scale. Today, Mondi SCP is a prime example of modern, integrated production, processing locally sourced pulp to manufacture high-quality office paper and durable packaging materials that are exported globally. As by far the largest employer in the Liptov region, the company holds immense economic and social importance for the local population. In recent decades, Mondi has invested heavily in advanced, environmentally friendly technologies to minimize water and energy consumption and drastically reduce emissions, establishing the site as one of the cleanest pulp mills on the continent.
