How does Aracruz view the issue of a companys social responsibility?
Aracruz understands that a company’s main responsibility is to generate wealth – and, consequently, jobs and taxes – through investment, acting in a way that is beneficial to society and the environment. This is what the Company has been striving for since its inception. Since 1989, in taxes alone, Aracruz generated more than US$1,232 million. More than US$4,951 million was invested in the purchase of materials and services. Besides the benefits that result from its daily operations, Aracruz runs a number of social activities in the regions where it operates. The Company invests both human and financial resources in projects designed to bring about self-sustaining results for the communities that are benefited.
