In the publication The Good Book Arctic Paper celebrates the transformation of the book from an everyday object into a cultural asset through highest quality in design, paper and content.

Munken Agenda is a collaboration between the paper manufacturer Arctic Paper and creative institutions and design schools in Europe. The 2025 Agenda, titled "Calendar as You Like It," was designed by two students from Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design in Halle, Germany, and its playful design and colors are a delightful nod to the 1990s.

Hope is the third issue of the Surface series. Spanning 336 pages, ‘Hope’ showcases creative professionals whose work combines sustainability and diversity with aesthetics and good taste. The beautifully designed book brings together people from a wide range of sectors who all inspire hope – from architects and designers to artists, chefs, inventors, photographers, engineers, producers and graphic designers. All of these people believe that their actions can bring about change and have poured their energy and innovativeness into developing products and projects which make the world a better place.

Every design begins with a sketch: The Munken Papeterie Collection distills paper into its most concise, clear and sustainable form to enable maximum artistic liberty. Combining a radically minimalist design with a sustainable approach, the thoughtfully crafted products, Munken Works and Munken Notes, offer this prime medium in its purest form: no lamination, no coating and no plastic packaging.

Munken Agenda 2024 challenges our way of perceiving time. In the agenda you will discover how the days of the year are visualized in percentages, from zero to one hundred. Day by day, no matter what goals you reach or whatever the day will hold, you slowly reach your one hundred percent throughout the year. The colourful edition of 2024 is designed by students Eli Rebekka Haugen, Mailinn Stensen, Ina Skogstad and Josefine Krystad at the Kristiania University College based in Oslo, Norway.

The Munken Creator was recently awarded at this year’s European Design Awards in Luxembourg and the Art Directors Club Awards in Hamburg, Germany.

The Munken Creator is the outcome of a collaboration between Munken and Patrik Hübner, in dialogue with JUNO. It is a new and unique tool for creating individual, visually animated messages with the Munken Sans.

Arctic Paper stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian people and is donating 1 million SEK to support refugees, with focus on the children coming to Poland from Ukraine. As a company we are aligning with the international sanctions and supporting the efforts on the ground on the Polish border to save lives and provide relief to those affected by the war.

Arctic Paper presents Surface N° 2 – a second edition featuring a specially curated selection of images created by an international group of 15 well-esteemed artists and collectives, printed on paper from the Arctic Volume Range.

The full coated woodfree product range of Arctic Paper Grycksbo have been awarded a Silver Level Material Health Certificate as part of the multi-attribute Cradle to Cradle Certified® Products Standard. In addition, the entire production process of the mill in Grycksbo was inspected and achieved the Silver Level which therefore represents the overall level of product certification.

Arctic Paper is commissioning the expanded hydropower plant at the mill in Munkedal. The investment of just over SEK 100 million increases the power from 2 to 6 MW, which in combination with the planned solid fuel boiler is sufficient to meet up to 80 percent of Arctic Paper Munkedal's energy needs with its own sustainable energy.

Collaboration, diversity and unique experiences form the roots of creativity. Today, we combine these elements to kick off our new Munken CoLab initiative, which is done together with the Swiss Type Foundry, Lineto. Inherent to collaboration is the idea of sharing, a concept that is essential to our cultural identity and progress.
