The Forest Company operates on a land base containing 73,000 hectares, of which 34,000 hectares are planted and 13,500 hectares are available to be planted. The remaining area has been set aside from production to be maintained as natural reserves made up of high-biodiversity areas such as wetlands and native forests. We have an area of 21,200 hectares planted with eucalyptus and 12,800 hectares with pine. Our eucalyptus forests mature by the age of 6 years and pine by 15. Our operations are carried out in three clusters comprising timber and timber-related assets. Two clusters are located in Brazil and one in Colombia.
