Fibria was created in 2009 from the merger between Votorantin Pulp and Paper (VCP) and Aracruz Celulose and currently ranks as the world’s largest pulp producer with a yearly production capacity of 5.4 million tons of market pulp and 358,000 tons of paper. It holds a 12% market share, with 37% in the eucalyptus pulp segment and 22% in the short fiber segment. It also produces special papers (thermal and carbonless) for printing and writing (coated, off-set and cut-size).

The Votorantim Group holds 29.3% of Fibria's total shares. The company shares are traded in the São Paulo and New York Stock Exchanges.

Fibria's main attributes are its high productivity and its quality standards. To maintain this level of excellence, the Company operates according to very high standards in all processes along the productive chain – from eucalyptus cultivation to distribution of finished products.

In 2009, Votorantim’s Sustainability Plan was adjusted to the new business profile. With the merger, Fibria became the only forestry company in the world listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index of the New York Stock Exchange, which trades securities from companies committed to sustainable growth. Fibria’s shares are also listed in the Business Sustainability Index (ISE) of the São Paulo Stock Exchange. During this year, Fibra has also taken the initial steps to join the Novo Mercado (New Market), Bovespa´s highest level of corporate management.

The Company was a pioneer in the sector receiving Carbon Footprint certification, which measures gas emissions in the production stages in Jacareí (São Paulo State), from forest planting to product delivery at the ports of destination.
