1. Conduct a fauna survey and estimate the biomass of native vegetation.
2. Identify fauna species serving as indicators of forest ecosystem quality.
3. Develop a diagnostic assessment and a management plan aimed at enhancing the ecological quality and conservation of the priority areas.
Met Completed Stages

1. Conducting a workshop with subject‑matter specialists to establish the foundational assumptions of the project.
2. Identification and delineation of Bracell’s priority areas for conservation.
3. Definition of reference areas within the broader landscape context.

Build regenerative systems that benefit nature, biodiversity and ecosystem services

As part of our Sustainable Landscapes and Biodiversity targets, we aim to conserve 230,000 hectares of native forest by 2030. At yearend 2025, we reached 301,000 hectares of conserved public land across the states of São Paulo, Bahia, and Mato Grosso do Sul.

Beyond land conservation, we also invest in research on biodiversity conservation. In 2025, we supported eight research projects on environmental conservation.

Our goal is to conserve
230,000
hectares

of native forest by 2025

We reached
301,000

in the states of São Paulo, Bahia, and Mato Grosso do Sul

In 2025, we supported
8
research projects

on environmental preservation

We are also committed to wildlife rehabilitation. By 2030, we aim to double the number of certified sites for the release of wild animals into nature. We ended 2025 with five certified release sites in the Northeast of Brazil.

Protecting forests and biodiversity is intrinsic to our business. In our forestry operations, we implement targeted strategies to protect native vegetation and biodiversity within the Caatinga, Cerrado, and Atlantic Forest biomes hosting our operations.
