“Everything that can be measured can be improved. After the implementation of Synergi®, the H1 factor has fallen considerably(from 20 to 1.3 in 7 years). The high numbers for 2001 are due to the purchase of factories in Netherland and Germany.
Synergi® has enabled us to measure our health and safety level, and made that important H1 factor drop considerably in few years.”

Mr. Jens Borge, Norske Skog ASA, Vice President H&S.
