And took it from pilot to full scale, launching the service in 15 countries in Europe. Since February 2022, she has been head of OnceMore®, Södra’s investment in sustainable and circular textile pulp. Which creates completely new conditions in the textile and fashion industry through the recycling of blended textile waste that turn into new viscose mixed with renewable forest. Since 2019, Åsa has also been part of the reference group to the Delegation for Circular Economy appointed by the Swedish Government.
