Paper Segment
According to IBÁ, domestic sales of printing and writing paper and paperboard decreased by 5% in 2024 compared to 2023, while imports increased by 13%.
Our domestic sales increased by 9% compared to 2023, as demand for printing & writing papers grew, influenced by the election cycle and resilient demand for uncoated paper , in comparison with the low sales volume of last year, when overstocked inventories hampered demand. Regarding paperboard, sales increased 6% compared to 2023 pushed by the good performance of the Brazilian economy and families’ consumption. On the tissue side, we experienced an upside as a result of the acquisition of Kimberly Clark's tissue business in Brazil, impacting 12 months on 2024.
