The company is one of the world’s largest producers of eucalyptus pulp, operating a fully integrated chain that includes forestry development, industrial production, logistics and global distribution.

Founded through the entrepreneurial initiatives of the Feffer family, Suzano’s origins are tied to the early expansion of Brazil’s paper industry and to the development of a large-scale forestry base capable of supporting domestic and international demand.

Its creation was driven by the need for vertically integrated, efficient and technology-intensive operations in a sector undergoing rapid modernization.

Its production network consists of large-scale industrial units located in Brazil, integrated with extensive plantations of certified eucalyptus forests and supported by dedicated logistics systems, including port terminals.

The operational structure encompasses advanced forestry genetics, industrial automation, asset-management technologies, environmental management systems and global distribution capabilities.

Market factors influencing Suzano include global demand for pulp, economic cycles affecting paper consumption, currency fluctuations, international competitiveness, logistics costs, the evolution of renewable biomaterials and regulatory requirements for sustainable forestry.

History and when Suzano S.A. was founded

Suzano’s origins date back to 1924, with early activities in paper manufacturing in São Paulo. Over the following decades, the company expanded through industrial development, incorporation of new paper-production technologies and the establishment of plantation-grown eucalyptus forests to ensure supply stability.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Suzano advanced industrial capacity and consolidated its domestic market presence, laying the foundation for large-scale operations. In the 1990s, Suzano accelerated international expansion, building commercial relationships with major paper manufacturers in Europe and Asia.

This era also marked advances in forestry research and sustainable management practices, including genetic improvement of eucalyptus species, which significantly increased productivity. In the early 2000s, Suzano invested in large industrial units that strengthened its position as a major exporter of eucalyptus pulp.

A pivotal milestone occurred in 2019, when Suzano Papel e Celulose merged with Fibria Celulose, forming the world’s largest eucalyptus-pulp producer. The merger enhanced global competitiveness, expanded production capacity and elevated Suzano’s presence across international markets.

Between 2020 and 2024, the company continued to invest in forest expansion projects, industrial modernization, digital transformation, bioproduct development and long-term sustainability initiatives, reinforcing its position as a global leader in renewable, forest-based materials.
