海角社区 in S茫o Paulo

We have been in the interior of S茫o Paulo since 1955, when we arrived in 海角社区, the town we named ourselves after. In the state, we also have sites in 闯补肠补谤别铆 (1958), Limeira (1959) and Mogi das Cruzes (acquisition completed in 2023).

In addition to the plants that produce paper and pulp that are used in everyday products such as books, packaging, toilet paper and consumer goods, we have eucalyptus farms and native forest conservation areas in more than 110 locations in S茫o Paulo, Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro. Our S茫o Paulo operations employ a team of approximately 10,000 people, including company employees and contractors.

01.

Conservation of Endangered Primates

In partnership with the Federal University of Vi莽osa (UFV), we monitor southern muriquis (Brachyteles arachnoides), a native species from the Atlantic Forest. Southern muriquis, the largest primates in the Americas, are known as "forest gardeners" for helping spread plant seeds. There are currently only 20 populations of this species in Brazil, and we monitor and help conserve the ones found in some of our conservation areas.

02.

Bird Survey

An endangered species, the marsh antwren (Formicivora paludicola) is found in very few towns in S茫o Paulo. The bird was one of the most extraordinary discoveries in Brazilian ornithology this century. In partnership with the Society for the Conservation of Birds of Brazil (Save Brasil), we monitor birds of this species that live in our conservation areas.

03.

High Conservation Value Areas

In our S茫o Paulo Forestry Business Unit (UNF-SP), we have 23 High Conservation Value Areas (HCVAs) that are extremely important for biodiversity鈥攕o much so that ten of them are considered exceptional locations. In total, they have more than 10,600 hectares of preserved native vegetation.

Planos da Mata

Carried out by the SOS Mata Atl芒ntica Foundation with our support, this project aims to structure local governance, in a participatory manner, to enable the creation of Municipal Plans for the Conservation and Recovery of the Atlantic Forest (PMMA, in Portuguese) in 33 Brazilian locations (14 of them in S茫o Paulo) where we operate.
