As a producer of advanced wood adhesives, we recognise the high energy consumption in manufacturing and the need for energy-intensive raw materials. Being ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certified, we continuously work to increase energy efficiency through process optimalisation and sourcing the best available technology.

Green-House Gas Emissions

We monitor our green-house gas emissions and report them annually to the Norwegian Environmental Agency (Miljødirektoratet). We disclose our estimated annual scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions on CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) and Ecovadis.

An Energy Efficient & Circular System

Being energy efficient and utilising excess heat and off-gasses from production are actions Dynea take to reduce costs and lower the environmental impact. We set annual energy targets, analyse issues, and implement improvements.

Formaldehyde production is at the core of our business. This chemical compound is produced by dehydro-oxygenation of methanol, and thermal energy is released. We utilise the thermal energy to produce steam, which is sold as energy to other manufacturers located at Dynea Industrial Park.

what we do

  • Recover exothermic energy from formaldehyde production to generate steam and heat buildings and infrastructure on-site
  • Use hydrogen-rich exhaust gas as fuel for various applications
  • Produce and sell energy to industries at Dynea Industrial Park

A Certified Energy Management System

Dynea is certified according to ISO 50001 Energy Management, which guides the organisation to increase energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact.

We are also ISO 14001 certified, which gives us a framework to identify, manage, and continually improve their environmental impacts.

Emissions Trading System

Dynea is subject to the Emissions Trading System regulations and holds a permit for greenhouse gas emissions. We report our annual level of activity per sub-installation.

Commitment Through Policies

As outlined in our HSEQ and Sustainability Policies, one of our key objectives is to make full use of available energy and continually seek ways to improve energy efficiency. We do this by identifying major energy consumers and sources of energy loss across our operations, and by working to reduce them.
