The forest is the bridge to tomorrow

We exist to preserve the planet for future generations, nurturing forests so they can flourish forever. As a Brazilian company, we are reshaping the standards of the timber industry, harnessing the reforestation potential of the Atlantic Forest. Reforestation is a process that requires patience and dedication, as well as an understanding of the forest's needs. To make this vision a reality, we manage the entire cycle, from selecting species and mother trees to caring for seeds and seedlings, all the way to the final product. By nurturing every step, we ensure benefits for the biome, the economy, and the communities involved. The forest grows, the community thrives, and the economy strengthens — all in balance. In any vision of a responsible future, reforestation plays a central role.

Responsible Operation

Selective logging, the practice of extracting specific trees from forested areas, remains a common approach among many companies. However, this method falls short of ensuring a sustainable and responsible future. The cultivation of new forests is imperative to foster a truly sustainable and economically viable model, integrating innovation with a commitment to social and environmental stewardship.

FSC® Certification

The FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) certification serves as a hallmark of excellence, ensuring that our wood originates from responsibly managed forests that adhere to stringent environmental, social, and economic criteria. Attaining this prestigious certification involves rigorous independent audits to confirm compliance with international forest management standards. By supporting enterprises bearing this distinction, like Symbiosis, consumers actively champion the conservation of tropical forests and biodiversity, transforming consumption into a force for environmental stewardship and sustainable progress.

The Atlantic Forest is our home

We are based in the Atlantic Forest, a critically endangered region facing severe habitat and biodiversity loss, where over 93% of the original forest has been devastated in the past 500 years. However, this biome holds immense potential for reforestation. Our mission is to harness this potential by combining timber production with carbon sequestration.

Our story

Bruno Mariani believes that Brazil has the potential to restore 12 million hectares of forests. This restoration must go beyond environmental benefits for the country and the planet—it must also create jobs and income for local communities. With this vision, he founded Symbiosis, committed to proving that it is possible to reforest Brazil with native species, restoring soil and water, producing high-quality timber, and preventing the deforestation of natural forests.
