5. Pulp Business Unit
Net price for pulp exports in 3Q07 was US$613/t, compared with
US$594/t in 2Q07, and US$587/t in 3Q06;
Strong demand, restrictions related to wood supply and low
inventories;
169,300 tons produced, reflected maintenance shutdowns at the
Mucuri and Americana units and the startup of Line 2.
Cash cost of R$ 535/t. Increased by the maintenance shutdown (R$
69/t) and higher percentage of wood from local farmers (R$ 24/t).
Without these additional costs, cash cost would have been R$ 442/t
(R$ 446/t in 2T07).
