This study aims to investigate the potential advantages and disadvantages of bringing the production of MDF- and OSB-boards to Sweden, as well as the possibility of implementing such a plan. The goal is to give the reader a comprehensive analysis of the potential economic and environmental benefits of bringing the production of MDF- and OSB-boards to Sweden. As well as the challenges and obstacles that would need to be overcome to make such a change a reality. The world market has been affected by unexpected events, including a world pandemic and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Companies have realized the benefits of production closer to the market, and wood-based boards are essential in the construction industry. The study uses a qualitative interview approach to gain insights into the industry's current trends, challenges, and opportunities. The results show that while Sweden has the theoretical possibility to manufacture these boards, challenges such as profitability, raw materials, and competition on the market stand in the way. Porter's five forces model and the Triple Bottom Line were used for a comprehensive analysis, leading to the conclusion that the challenges for the manufacture of MDF- and OSB- boards in Sweden are currently too great.
