We know our responsibilities. Selling lumber and wood products is not enough. Our strategy is to preserve nature at the same time. Investment in the areas of reforestation, research & development is heavily reinforced by WZ®, its management, our partners and co-shareholders at Florevale.

Our own tree nursery at Florevale is responsible for the continuing development of forest area. This important activity assures self-sufficiency in the availability of high-quality raw material.

We grow and care for our forests so that they'll provide wood for customers and maintain a natural habitat for existing wildlife, not only today, but for generations to come. By doing so, we not only protect our lands from development and urban sprawl, we reduce the need for trees to be harvested in the more sensitive tropical forests.

Investment in research, introduction of new tree species and the development of new alternatives for the substitution of native woods are all measures that continue enhancing our future production and quality.

We are preserving huge areas of own native forest and assure the conservation of soil and water resources.

Our more than 790 sq./kilometer (494 sq./miles) of forests provide wood to make our fine wood products. They provide wood for other important items, such as homes and furniture. And through our popular recreational program, our forests allow people from all over Brazil to enjoy outdoor recreation in a beautiful, natural environment.
