Brazil is a global reference in the planting of trees for industrial purposes which are used to produce wood panels, laminate flooring, pulp, paper, charcoal and biomass – items that are present in our homes and our daily lives. The planted tree industry has invested in technology to 30 m FOREST-BASED turn the waste and by-products of these processes into innovative, renewable products that are essential for the development of a low-carbon economy. Many of these products are still in the research and development stage, or are being produced on an incipient scale. As investments are made in innovative technologies, the products from this industry will move out of the laboratories PRODUCTS toward new markets and different segments, providing additional benefits to society as a whole. Products already Products in the research and development on the market stage or produced on an incipient scale Honey SECTORS OF USE Aviation Electronics Flowers Civil construction Pharmaceutical and Printing/Publishing medical 25 m Food Furniture Seeds Automotive Chemicals Cosmetics and personal Textiles hygiene Various industries Fruits Essential oils Natural fabric dyes Oils FOOD Leaves Cellulose is used as an Cellulosic ethanol ingredient in various food products. In ice cream, Pig iron syrups, dairy cream and juices, it acts as a stabilizer and provides Smoke Flavorings consistency. It is also Charcoal added to grated cheese Preservatives to prevent moisture Crown Pyroligneous absorption and clumping. extract Cellulose is also a source of fiber that comprises Energy whole food products. Combustion Smoked delicacies use a flavoring extracted from MDP/HDP burning wood during the process of charcoal making. This extract, MDF/HDF pyroligneous acid, is basically condensed smoke. Over the last Laminate flooring Sanding decade, Brazilians have Wood panels come to appreciate the Hard fiber board use of this flavor, for example in barbecue Cooling sauce. Today, even dog OSB food and smoked bones contain these products Cutting Besides these uses, Adhesives pyroligenous acid is also used as a fertilizer in Pressing Tall Oil* Disinfectants agriculture. and detergents Forming the panel Asphalt roofing sheets Medications and cosmetics Processing wood into HEALTHCARE Biomass fibers or Adhesives particles Substances derived from cellulose fibers can be Flavorings used in manufacturing Branches capsules for medications.
