The plant produces 152,000 tons of tissue annually.

Saab

During the COP29 climate conference, Saab revealed a new drone designed to combat climate change. Developed by Swedish and Colombian students from Universidad EAFIT and KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the drone will fly at 5,000 meters over Colombia’s rainforests and mountains using electric propulsion. It will be equipped with monitoring technology to support environmental monitoring efforts in the fight against climate change.
