Integrated logistics

The pulp

journey

Eldorado Brazil's production chain includes growing eucalyptus seedlings in Andradina, São Paulo State, planting them in our certified forests in eastern Mato Grosso do Sul, harvesting the wood for pulp production in Três Lagoas, then transporting the product to ports for shipment worldwide. This complex operation is enabled by our integrated logistics process, which uses road, rail, and rivers to transport raw materials to their destinations and pulp to the country's biggest ports efficiently, safely, and sustainability. The process begins with box trucks taking seedlings to the forest to be planted. Harvested wood is then taken to the mill by three-trailer road trains, while wood chips are transported to the Onça Pintada power plant by two-trailer road trains, where they are used to generate clean energy. Pulp produced at the mill is transported to customers overseas via a flexible and diversified logistics network, with a river port at the Três Lagoas industrial complex, a railroad terminal in Aparecida do Taboado (Mato Grosso do Sul State), partnerships with road carriers, and the option to ship from port terminals in the south of Brazil or from the Port of Santos—Eldorado Brazil’s primary export point, where we have our own terminal and are currently expanding. This multimodal network, which includes transport by trains and boats, reduces risks related to road traffic and the environment and lowers carbon emissions, in addition to increasing logistical efficiency and cutting costs.

  • 1 truck every 5 minutes,

    loaded with wood from our own planted forests.

  • 100,000 truck trips

    per year transporting wood to the mill

  • 2 years

    is the average age of the trucks in our modern, low-carbon fleet

  • More than 130 trucks

    leave the mill every day, carrying pulp to the biggest ports in Brazil

  • 3 million tons

    of pulp can be shipped from our terminal at the Port of Santos, which is currently being expanded

Safer, more efficient

wood transport

The fleet of modern trucks that takes wood to the mill and chips to the Onça Pintada power plant consumes less fuel and emits less greenhouse gases. The technology these vehicles are equipped with, combined with Eldorado Brazil's logistical management, allows for quick decision-making, increasing operational performance and the availability of trucks, as well as driver safety. The trucks have remote sensing systems that provide data about their location and driver behavior, shared with our control tower in real time. This data analysis can be used as a basis for remote interventions, whether relating to safety or the need for repairs and maintenance. All vehicles are equipped with a telemetry system that sends the control tower information about fuel consumption, movement, braking, and other data. To improve driver health and safety, these technologies are used to manage their routines, ensuring they take breaks, for example, and cameras capable of detecting fatigue and distraction inside the cab reinforce safety—the cameras are monitored remotely by analysts.
Eldorado Brasil has a multimodal logistics network—road, rail, and river—connecting the company to the country's biggest ports. Our own terminal at the Port of Santos is where most of our pulp leaves Brazil, headed to more than 40 countries worldwide. In 2020, we acquired a new area in the port, which doubled the terminal’s pulp shipment capacity. The new area has two berths and can receive a 72-wagon train, increasing logistical efficiency and reducing costs.
