Amazonas Florestal receives purchase order from Trackwork Limited

Dec 18, 2012. /Lesprom Network/. Amazonas Florestal, Ltd. received a purchase order for $2.6 million from Trackwork Limited for 4,000 cubic metres of sleepers and bearers (railroad ties), as the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network. Having passed an on-site quality control inspection and filled previous orders for Trackwork, Amazonas receives this purchase order as the next step in a growing relationship with Trackwork, its longest-standing and largest client. This larger order provides Amazonas with leverage to harvest current forest management projects, which will, in turn, provide additional supply of species for production at low cost. “As a product, sleepers are a perfect fit for us: the approved species for sleepers are abundant in our properties, they’re a high-yield product, and they don’t need kiln-drying, which significantly boosts our profit margins,” says Michael Ibar, CEO of Amazonas; “we’re excited to begin the fulfillment of this order and hope to continue expanding our relationship with Trackwork.” Amazonas Florestal is a diversified forest management company generating profit through innovative, sustainable management of its large tracts of land in the rainforests of Amazonas, Brazil.
