Suzano S.A. (NYSE: SUZ) is a leading global pulp and paper company headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil. The company specializes in the production of market pulp derived primarily from its expansive eucalyptus plantations. Suzano’s integrated operations encompass every stage of the pulp and paper value chain, from sustainable forest management and seedling production to industrial processing and distribution of pulp, paperboard, specialty papers and tissue products.
Tracing its origins to the Brazilian state of São Paulo in 1924, Suzano has evolved from a regional forestry concern into one of the world’s foremost suppliers of eucalyptus pulp. A landmark moment in its history came in 2019 with the merger of Suzano Papel e Celulose and Fibria Celulose, which created the largest pulp producer by capacity. Since then, the company has continued investing in capacity expansion, research and development initiatives focused on low-carbon technologies, and innovation in bio-based chemicals.
Suzano’s operations are anchored in Brazil, where it maintains several forestry units and industrial plants strategically located near Atlantic ports for efficient global distribution. Its products serve a diverse international customer base across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America, supporting the production of a wide range of consumer and industrial applications, including packaging, tissue, printing and writing, and specialty paper markets. Suzano emphasizes logistical efficiency through a network of terminals, port facilities and commercial offices in key markets such as the United States, China and Europe.
Under the leadership of CEO Walter Schalka and a board of directors with deep expertise in forestry, industrial manufacturing and sustainability, Suzano has positioned itself as a pioneer in environmental stewardship. The company adheres to strict certification standards, including FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®) and CERFLOR, and has set ambitious targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, optimizing water use and promoting social development in the communities where it operates.
