Brazilian pulp and paper producer, Suzano, is considering building an uncoated white paper machine outside of Brazil. The objective would be to forward integrate some of its
market pulp into paper, but do it closer to the final customer. One location reportedly under consideration is on/near the Texas gulf coast. Suzano would export pulp to the US for conversion into Paper. Suzano currently exports about 60K/tpy of various uncoated free sheet products into the US and has a near-term goal of moving to over 100,000/tons. Within Brazil, Suzano's estimated 2008 capacity is 1.64MM/mtons of market pulp and 1.1MM/mtons of paper.
