Multinational Bracell Will Transport Its Pulp Factory Output via MRS Road-Rail System to the Port of Santos (SP)

Bracell’s new factory under construction, one of the largest producers of dissolving pulp and specialty pulp in the world, is partnering with MRS to transport pulp from its factory in Lençóis Paulista to the Port of Santos. To make this entire logistical structure feasible, the companies have made significant investments, such as the construction of an operational base in Pederneiras, with an estimated generation of up to 70 jobs.

Expected to begin operations in the second half of this year, the new production volume from Bracell’s factory will require a complex logistics operation for transporting pulp from Lençóis Paulista to the Port of Santos.

The pulp will be transported by trucks to the Intermodal Terminal in Pederneiras, which will then proceed on the network operated by MRS to the terminals at the Port of Santos. The railway route from Pederneiras to Santos spans 510 km.

Produced by Greenbrier Maxion, the first hundred wagons have already been delivered and are ready to begin operations, totaling around 463 wagons of the FTT total side-opening model, characterized by the canvas opening along the entire side of the wagon. Equipped with the Motion Control truck that adapts to the operational conditions of Brazilian railways, the FTT offers advantages over older models, such as reduced wagon tare weight, significant increases in loading capacity per train and per wagon, as well as better ergonomics in operation and watertightness, preventing load loss due to water ingress during the rainy season. The compositions will operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each composition will consist of 60 wagons and transport the equivalent of 113 trucks.

To make this entire logistical structure feasible, Bracell, in partnership with MRS, has made significant investments, such as the construction of an operational base in Pederneiras, with an estimated generation of up to 70 jobs.

For Alberto Pagano, Head of Supply Chain at Bracell SP, the logistics solution adopted by the company, prioritizing the rail modal, brings a range of benefits aligned with environmental sustainability, such as a reduction in the volume of atmospheric emissions during product shipment. “In addition to adhering to Bracell’s sustainability guidelines, the logistics operations will create job opportunities both in the area around the factory and at the Port of Santos. The delivery of the first wagons is an important milestone in the progress of the project that will ensure Bracell’s export capacity,” he commented.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

African country launched a $145 million project to rehabilitate 35 dams and drill deep wells seeking water stored for millennia beneath the desert, a plan that Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s government presents as a path to the country’s water sovereignty.

A 400-meter colossus powered by natural gas has just set sail from Shanghai to Europe, carrying over 24,000 containers. It is the world’s largest dual-fuel container ship and can cross the planet without refueling even once.

The largest highway concession company in Brazil already belongs to an Italian group, and now the railway sector may be next to receive billions in investments from Italy amid the progress of the Mercosur and European Union agreement.

A new study overturns the central idea we learned about planets and suggests that Earth is the exception rather than the rule; most rocky worlds in the galaxy may not have a core or mantle, just a single turbulent fluid extending to the center.
