ICT Poland was inaugurated in 2001, in Kostrzyn, on the border with Germany: an ideal location to efficiently cater for the countries in Central and Central Eastern Europe. Today the facility is the most technologically advanced European site in the industry and is one of the most important production sites in Europe by size. From the outset, converting was designed around the paper mill’s continuous machine, with an XXL converting facility of the same width, capable of converting paper reels without any intermediate processing. Thanks to expansions in 2008 and 2015, it has reached a production capacity of 210,000 tonnes with three continuous machines. Furthermore, within its plans for technological development, in 2010 ICT Poland set up a fully automated warehouse, capable of handling 90,000 pallets of finished product on 12 levels and loading 220 trucks per day. Another record that strengthens its technological leadership.

More schools, more knowledge! This year's Job Workshop
More schools, more knowledge! This year's Job Workshop
What does it really mean to work in finance, logistics or maintenance? Showing, not just telling. Once again. The third edition of the Job Workshop was definitely special - we hosted 269 students from 4 schools in 9 days of workshops! Our aim, as in previous years, was to simulate real tasks and inspire young people to grow.
Our Job Workshop programme in the previous editions has shown that there is a huge interest in vocational training and practical learning. In response to this enthusiasm, we expanded the workshop format this year, with as many as four colleges accepting the invitation to come to us this autumn:
- The Maria Skłodowska-Curie school complex in Kostrzyn nad Odrą,
- The no. 1 Juliusz Słowacki school complex in Dębno,
- The school complex of the Ignacy Łukasiewicz Educational Association in Dębno,
- The Agricultural Training Centre school complex in Kamień Mały.
For nine intensive days, 269 final year students from secondary and vocational schools had the opportunity to cut their teeth on against the tasks our professionals face on a daily basis. The workshops covered five key sections: Finance, Safety, Production, Logistics, and Maintenance.
The team competition formula proved to be a success once again. Working in a safe environment under the guidance of our experts, the students showed great commitment. It was not only an opportunity for them to test their skills, but also to talk directly with our employees about career paths and the reality of working in manufacturing.
As per tradition, there were prizes for the best teams and a delicious pizza, a certificate and corporate gifts for all.
In our eyes, the positive reception and energy that the young people have shown are all the proof we need that the Job Workshop programme deserves a permanent place in our calendar. See you next year!
The new EU Bioeconomy Strategy also highlights the Tissue sector
The new EU Bioeconomy Strategy also highlights the Tissue sector
The European Commission has just presented the updated EU Bioeconomy Strategy, unveiled by Commissioner Jessika Roswall in a room filled with bio-based innovations of every kind. And our tissue products were right there, proudly representing our sector in Europe’s bio-based future.
This is a moment to celebrate. Not because tissue received special attention, but because we are now clearly part of the EU’s vision for the bioeconomy — a strong signal of recognition for the contribution our sector can bring to a more sustainable Europe.
A promising step forward and an additional motivation to keep engaging, innovating, and ensuring that the tissue sector remains actively involved as Europe shapes its bio-based transition.
Bioeconomy in action. Tissue included.

ICT Group obtains SBTi validation for its emissions reduction targets
We are proud to announce that ICT GROUP greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets have been officially validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) revision committee.
SBTi is an international organization that validates and approves companies’ emissions-reduction targets, ensuring they are science-based and aligned with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming.
In particular our near-term target commits us to reducing our absolute GHG emissions across our operations (from 2020 base year):
- Scope 1 and 2 → - 42% by 2030
- Scope 3 → - 35% by 2034
