The only producer of three types of pulp in the country, the largest manufacturer of corrugated cardboard boxes, and the main supplier of packaging paper, Klabin is on the way to consolidating a mega logistics structure in the Port of Paranagua, which in 2023 will reach a capacity of 3 million tonnes per year. After inaugurating the country’s largest private operation of non-refrigerated containers in 2021, the company plans to open a new terminal by January next year. The lease won in 2019 in a federal government auction should add a capacity of 1.25 million tonnes per year to the port. The new terminal leased by Klabin in Paranaguá, which will start operating soon, will be used to move loose cargo produced with the infrastructure created during the first phase of the Puma project. In addition, it will serve as an alternative outlet for the Puma II. The terminal will also have a rail connection.
