Research Development and Innovation

Klabin's Research and Development + Innovation (R&D+I) front works on perfecting practices and processes focused on improving the performance of its forests and production processes; on developing multiple-use forest-based products that are renewable, recyclable, and biodegradable; and on managing interference throughout the production chain.

With about 0.5% of its revenues allocated to investments in R&D+I, the company maintains in Telêmaco Borba (PR), the Technology Center and the Forestry Research Center, structures that operate in five research routes: development of the forest base, pulp development, paper lines, new forestry-based technologies, and reduction of environmental impacts.

As support for the Company's growth cycle, the New Business Directorate was created in 2021, which receives support from the R&D+I area for the anticipation of trends and technologies. More information in Corporate Governance.
