Logistics
The main locations for our lumber and saw mills are Vista Alegre, Labrea, Monicore, Manaus and Apui. All these locations in Amazones have direct access to river ports along the Madeira River, which flows into an international port in Manaus. We also have lumber at saw mills in Manaus itself.
It is on average a 4-hour drive from the saw mills to the river ports and a 5-day trip down the river to Port Manaus. These pathways can provide capacity to deliver up to 40,000 cubic meters of lumber per month on a consistent basis.
Trees in the forest can only be harvested during the dry season, April to December, however the saw mills operate all year round and transportation from the saw mill to Port Manaus is available throughout the year. We therefore can offer product 12-month a year.
