package
n 2012, our industry faced major turbulence due to the global
macroeconomic scenario, which slowed the pace of recovery in paper
and pulp prices and forced us to concentrate our efforts on maintaining
in the fourth quarter. In this regard, we intensified our efforts to reduce
costs and continued our biotechnological research, which will bring us real
productivity gains through FuturaGene. We also focused efforts on structuring
an adequate financial protection package, which gave us a significant liquidity
horizon. This package also included the R$3.5 billion loan from the Brazilian
Development Bank (BNDES) and export credit agencies for the Maranhão
project. We also received a firm offer for divesting non-core assets, such as
the 17% interest in the Capim Branco Hydroelectric project for R$320 million.

intensifying our efforts to ensure the project’s delivery by year-end
2013, as planned. We took other parallel actions during the year.
We intensified our efforts in the Productivity Project to reduce costs,
which has brought results on several administrative and production
fronts and should be expanded in the industrial and forestry areas
in 2013. We ended 2012 with pulp and paper sales of 3.2 million

Certifications
NOur certification processes are conducted as new units are incorporated and
in accordance with the growth strategy and the need to adjust management
practices to excellence models.
Our industrial and forestry units (São Paulo and Bahia) are certified by the
standards ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and FSC (Forest Stewardship
Council®).
We helped 76
rural producers
obtain certification
in 2012.
The São Paulo and Bahia forest units are also certified by CERFLOR. We also
continued the management of our internal social responsibility processes in line
with the scope of SA 8000. The Maranhão forestry base, which is in the initial
stage of the 2013 harvest, already adopts the FSC scope in its management.
We continued our project of encouraging our forest partners to obtain
certification for small rural properties, which helped increase the number of
eucalyptus producers in the Mucuri Unit with the FSC seal.
Directed at members of the Forestry Partnership Program, the project has
76 certified rural producers and 41 recommended for certification. A total
of 25,000 hectares of forests have been either certified or recommended for
certification, of which more than 11,000 were certified in 2012. This industryleading initiative is in line with our objectives of strengthening our actions to
increase income generation in the region, encouraging better labor relations in
the field and promoting compliance with social and environmental legislation.

Various tools support the application of these principles to

which establishes the guidelines and behaviors we expect
from our administrators, managers and employees. Upon
admission, all employees receive a copy of the Code of
Conduct, and later receive regular training on its provisions.
The Code of Conduct contains a series of conducts and
ethical values that must be observed by employees, such as
the principles of integrity, equality, transparency, professional
recognition, sustainable development and corporate
governance.

To ensure compliance with the Code of Conduct, we
have an External Ombudsman service provided by an

In a highly competitive and challenging market marked also by fluctuations in inventories and prices,
we remained focused on our targets: before year-end, we had already contracted 80% of our production
for 2012, increasing customer loyalty. Furthermore, despite the macroeconomic scenario, our prices
remained at satisfactory levels.
The healthy performance of 2012 is the result of successful efforts on the following fronts:
• Strategic planning: The area has been building closer relationships with international analysts and
consultants in various events and forums, such as the London Pulp Week in England, the Market Pulp
Association (MPA) in Canada, and China Pulp and Paper in China, where pulp companies from all over
the world discussed the marketing issues related to the industry. All these initiatives are aligned with
the strategy of prioritizing clients that pursue a high value-added partnership with Suzano in sectors
with excellent growth potential.
• Strengthening integration: greater interaction between the international offices and the teams
based in Brazil.
• Focus on continuous improvement: the same attention is given to technological infrastructure, which
leaves us more confident that we are prepared for the next leap in production at the Maranhão Unit.

We also launched a version of coated paper Kromma® with a

In 2012, our net revenue was R$ 5,192.3 million, 7.1% more than

Capex in 2012 totaled R$2,783.5 million. Capex for maintaining
current production capacity totaled R$495.3 million, with R$156.0
million directed to the industrial area and R$339.3 million to the
forestry area. A sum of R$2.3 billion was invested in expansion
projects, mainly in the Imperatriz Unit. In 2011, capex totaled
R$3,224.9 million, of which R$518.2 million went to maintenance,
R$1.5 billion to the acquisition of Conpacel and R$1.2 billion to other
expansion projects, especially the Imperatriz Unit.

amounted to R$10.7 billion, of which
54.8% was denominated in local currency
and 45.2% in foreign currency. We contract
debt in foreign currency as a natural hedge,
since nearly 50% of our revenue comes from
exports. This structural exposure allows us
to contract export financing in U.S. dollar at
more competitive costs than local financing
lines and to match financing payments with
receivable flows from sales.
The net debt/EBITDA ratio is 5.0x, while the

We intensified the
Capacitar program,
training more than
6,000 people in
Maranhão.
The year 2012 was marked by the planning and execution of the plan for
the recruitment and selection of workers for our Imperatriz Unit. The highlight
was the Capacitar program, which trained around 6,880 people in the state of
Maranhão to develop and qualify professionals from the local community to work
on the construction and operation of the new pulp plant, instead of bringing
already qualified people from other regions.
As part of this process, we considered the expectations of society identified by
the socio-environmental diagnostic study conducted soon after we defined the
investments in the region, which focused on vocational training and job creation
for the local population. We also innovated in the hiring of technical staff to
meet the project’s requirements by adopting the Consortium concept for the
training program. After analyzing the regional characteristics, we entered into
partnerships with the government (Municipal Government of Imperatriz and State
Government of Maranhão) and the National Industrial Training Service (SENAI),
the National Employment System (SINE), the Federal Institute of Education,
Science and Technology of Maranhão (IFMA), the Construction Workers’ Trade
Union, the Construction Industry Union (Sinduscon-MA), the Trade Association
of Imperatriz, as well as local companies and suppliers. This participatory process
allowed us to ensure the perpetuity of the initiative. (LA11)
Capacitar also expanded beyond its initial objective of training workers
to become a social project by incorporating significant investments in the
educational infrastructure. We innovated once again by allocating funds for

(60% local) and will reach 10,000, the training will help these people
find jobs on the other projects expected in the region, such as
shopping malls and hotels. (EC7)
Moreover, the Capacitar framework includes other training
programs, such as courses on Paper and Pulp and Harvest and
Maintenance Operations, which trained 240 people. At the end of
the year, 176 youth in the Paper and Pulp course worked as interns at
the Bahia Unit and in São Paulo as part of the Treinandos Project, who
will later return to Imperatriz to begin their jobs. Our next step is to

The Performance Management cycle, which translates our strategic
objectives into targets and our values into behaviors, involved all our
employees, including those in operational areas. The tool, whose timetable
includes the stages of self-appraisal, appraisal by manager, feedback and

The cycle employees to know the results and behaviors expected from

the director of the area responsible for the opening. Those approved
receive a stipend compatible with industry standards, meal vouchers
or meals (for industrial units), transportation voucher or chartered
bus (for industrial units), health plan and life insurance. In 2012, we
strongly encouraged the expansion of the Youth Apprentice program.
In partnership with the National Industrial Training Service (SENAI),
the National Rural Learning Service (SENAR), the National Commercial
Education Service (SENAC) and the Guarda-Mirim program of the
Municipality of Suzano, the ranks of our units were expanded by 104
youth who are regularly attending junior or high school. Lasting one to
two years and with a daily schedule of six to eight hours, the program
is divided into two modules: a theoretical part that is common to
all programs; and a specific part that focuses on the area where
the apprentice works at our company. The main operational
areas involved are: administration, industrial (production – pulp
and paper and maintenance – electrical and mechanical) and
forestry (forestry and maintenance of forestry machines).
Volunteer program
With a special focus on education, our Volunteer
Program registered 2,895 volunteers in the year. The
Escola Formare project alone, which was implemented at
the Embu, Limeira and Mucuri units and prepares youth
for the job market, registered 377 volunteers. Thanks
to their efforts, 90 youth were trained by the project,
including employees, service providers, interns and
apprentices, were hired.

Diversity
In 2012, the theme of diversity was widely disseminated internally. As
part of our People with Disabilities Inclusion Program, we carried out a
series of actions:
• Training our HR team through a workshop on the Inclusion of Persons
with Disabilities, in which 80 professionals from the Infrastructure,
Health, Occupational Safety and Quality of Life teams
participated;
• Sign language course at the Mucuri Unit, which trained 25
employees;
• Exhibition of paintings made by people with disabilities from
partner institutions;
• Internal Bulletins – Newsletters – Appreciating differences
“Recommend a Friend” program for recruiting persons
with disabilities – also continued to reflect our
commitment to hiring professionals and offering
them training in accordance with their area of
operation.
The theme of Persons with Disabilities
is the subject of the agreement (Termo de
Ajustamento de Conduta – TAC) maintained with
the Labor Prosecutor’s Office of Eunápolis, Bahia.

Safety, health and quality of life
Various advances were made during the year with
regard to the safety, health and quality of life of our
employees. One of the highlights was the Linha Mestra
program, which is part of the Zero Accident Program and
clearly defines the consequences of not complying with
safety procedures. Various situations were characterized as
serious misconduct, for which we adopt a zero tolerance
policy. We constantly strive to train and raise awareness
among employees on respect for all safety rules and
prioritize retaining professionals who can adapt
to the level of discipline we have established.

To encourage sustainable practices, for the second consecutive year, in 2012
we held the Suzano Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Supply Chain Workshop,
in which 52 people from 14 companies (strategic suppliers) discussed the theme
of “Climate Change”. Our objective was to encourage them to report actions
related to the management of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as to
identify the related risks and opportunities.

Another important initiative in the period was expanding the

important from the viewpoint of compliance. We prepared a schedule
and made significant progress in regulations, in line with the objectives
of standardization of processes and professionalization.
We also consolidated the management of third parties that provide
fixed services at all units of Suzano, management related to compliance
with labor obligations of the companies contracted and which involves
the approval of the release of monthly access and control of labor
obligations. All companies that provide fixed services at Suzano’s units

Commitment to
communities
To identify and meet the needs and expectations of the communities
with whom we interact and maintain participative and perennial
relationships, we rely on several tools. This is the case of communities
where our relationships date back several years (states of Bahia,
Espírito Santo and São Paulo) or of cases where we are initiating a
closer relationship due to the construction of our new industrial unit in
Imperatriz, Maranhão.
One of these is the Socio-Environmental Diagnosis, as manifested
through the book “Suzano em Campo”, whereby we interact with
communities and register and respond to requests, basing our future
actions on the issues raised. Another initiative is the Stakeholder System
(Sispart) software to register and monitor the issues raised by our
stakeholders, which in 2012 registered 949 requests related to issues
on the environment, education, culture, social assistance and income
generation, among others. Of the total requests, 328 were met through
funds amounting to some R$410,000, which were invested in meeting
occasional requests from communities.

We also conducted the

Climate Change
Our leadership position on the issue and our constant pursuit of high
standards of sustainability led us in 2012 to implement improvements in carbon
management tools, especially in quantifying and offsetting greenhouse gas
emissions. We appreciate knowing and understanding our GHG emissions,
since these are fundamental steps for enabling us to identify opportunities for
reducing emissions in our production chain. The carbon footprint (base: 2010)
of our products was recertified by the British institution Carbon Trust, which
demonstrates that the values related to emissions from the life cycle of the
Suzano Pulp, Alta Alvura®, Symetrique®, Paperfect® and Report® products were
reduced from the levels previously calculated during the certification process,
with a base year of 2008.
(EN18).
To learn more please go to www.pegadadecarbonosuzano.com.br. For the
Suzano Pulp pulp and the Paperfect® paper produced at the Mucuri Unit, waste
management was the activity that most contributed to reducing greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions. More than 30% of the waste generated during pulp and
paper production was reused (incorporated into power cogeneration), thus
reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills. For the Report®, Symetrique® and
Alta Alvura® papers produced at the Suzano Unit, the reductions mainly came
from the change in the profile of the unit’s energy matrix, which reduced the
consumption of fossil fuels for power generation through the increased use of
biomass, especially wood chips.

This significant share of renewable fuels shows that the company

Since 2011, we have been offering the market a portfolio of papers

during their life cycles are offset through carbon credits acquired in the
market. Since we understand that demand for this type of product is
growing due to the positioning of companies with regard to the issue,

we believe that the creation of a tool to control carbon credits that
guarantees the credibility of the offset process would be fundamental for
our clients and consumers. As a result, we partnered with the consulting
firms, ICF and Ernst & Young to develop a system that controls the
consumption of carbon credits in accordance with the volume of offset
paper sold. We are aware that strategic management of carbon includes
the establishment of a plan for reducing emissions. We also understand
