“I am very optimistic about the company’s future and confident that we are fully prepared to face the challenges that lie ahead. Our aim is to develop the renewable forestry business, investing in innovation and obtaining value from the forests, whether from pulp or from alternative uses. We want to generate admired profits, allied to environmental conservation, social inclusion and improved quality of life”, said Marcelo Castelli.
At the age of 47, with 25 years’ experience in the pulp and paper sector, Fibria’s new CEO has held positions of leadership in a number of different areas at major companies in the sector, such as Aracruz and VCP. At Fibria, he headed the Integration Project and was responsible for developing the conceptual and administrative guidelines for the new company that was formed by the merging of the two operations.
With Castelli’s move to the post of CEO, forestry general manager Aires Galhardo has assumed the post of forestry director at Fibria. Galhardo, with 6 years of his 10 year career devoted to the pulp and paper sector, was responsible for the development and execution of important integrated planning procedures. He joined VCP in 2005, where he was manager of forestry logistics. Aged 33, he has graduate and post-graduate degrees in business administration from the Getúlio Vargas Foundation.
The post of Industrial and Engineering director at Fibria, held by Francisco Valério, will absorb the general management of Supplies. The Business, Paper and Strategic Planning areas will now report directly to the CEO.
