Log

Eucalyptus and pine export is a growing economic activity in the South of Brazil, especially in the Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul States. Eucalyptus and pine logs are used as raw material for the wood, cellulose, construction and energy industries. The main destinations for the export of eucalyptus and pine logs from the region are China, India, and European countries. Connexion Export works through the ports of Rio Grande, Itajai, and Imbituba, sending certified logs abroad. Respect for the production chain - from caring for the collaborators to the quality of the machinery, from operation dynamics to the social insertion of shared value - makes Connexion Export a reference in log operation in the country.
Chips

Eucalyptus and pine export is an important economic activity in countries with significant wood production. Wood chips are small pieces of wood obtained from wood processing. They are mainly used as a raw material for cellulose and paper production, as well as to generate biomass energy. Wood chip export represents an important source of money for the export country in addition to contributing to the development of the forestry production chain. It is important that the wood logging and production are sustainable, respecting environmental legislation and the rights of local communities. Connexion Export works with wood and wood chips with FSC and SBP certification, which allows it to reach the global market sustainably and with the best partners and procedures at every step of the operation.

What our customers and partners say

Pedro Rodrigues

The Navigator Company

In 2019, Connexion and The Navigator Company established a solid partnership for the export/import of eucalyptus wood from Brazil to Portugal through the ports of Rio Grande and Imbituba, in a continuous optimization of processes. The partnership involves Connexion, as well as the companies RDK, Sagres and 3nergy, with high quality standards, innovation, and safety in operations. This has contributed decisively to a relationship of mutual trust and the permanent search for efficient solutions, thus guaranteeing The Navigator Company, the acquisition of wood in the medium to long term by Connexion, based on sustainability criteria.

RDK Logs has had the privilege of working with Connexion in log and wood chip export projects, which today are a worldwide reference in their field. The understanding of sustainability and the commitment to responsible practices in the supply chain are attested by the certifications obtained by Connexion.
