Tervakoski Oy is a Finnish paper industry company. Its paper mill, founded in 1818,[2][3][4] is located in the village of Tervakoski in Janakkala, Tavastia Proper. Since 1999, it has been owned by the Austrian company Delfort Group.[4][5]
By the end of 2022, the company made €207,9 million in turnover and its result was €13 million with the company's net profit percentage being 6.28%.[1]
In the years 1956–1984, the company gained a controversial reputation when a paper mill polluted Tervajoki River and Lake Kernaala with PCB compounds. PCB concentrations are still so high that restrictions have been placed on the use of fish in the lake.[6]
