Who is Acelen Renewables?

And INFLOR was chosen to join Acelen in this innovative project

“Our challenge is to develop an innovative culture, which has not yet been domesticated in Brazil, which is very important for the decarbonization process of the transport means. We are very excited about this partnership, which has complete synergy with our mission to make the world greener.”

What is the partnership between Acelen and INFLOR?

The alliance between Acelen Renewables and INFLOR aims to build a pioneering operating solution for Macaúba plantations, to provide better management practices for forestry crops in the long term. The partnership will involve the administration of all production factors, including elements of the investment life cycle such as:

• Silviculture;
• Land Management;
• Nursery;
• Quality Checks;
• Harvest;
• Logistics.

To perform the process in an organized and effective way, each life cycle factor will have a specific module, which will be implemented in stages called “waves”. This is a project that aims to integrate all the knowledge generated by research, innovations, agronomic developments, and the results obtained throughout the investments already made in Macaúba.

“We can only do something so bold with excellence in forest management when we combine technology with a cutting-edge team. In the course of actions, through experienced processes and reliable systems, we will be able to optimize resources, maximize returns, and guarantee the sustainability of the project.”

– Luiz Fellipe Arcalá
