Eucatex

What Eucatex does

Eucatex S.A. is a Brazilian industrial manufacturer founded in 1951, publicly listed on B3 (ticker EUCA3), that produces floors, paints, panels, partitions, and doors for the Brazilian construction and real estate sectors. The company operates a vertically integrated, closed-loop production model spanning forestry operations (1.8 million cubic meters of annual wood consumption, 7,500 hectares of annual replanting with 13 million clonal seedlings), industrial manufacturing across five core product lines and 1,300+ SKUs, and Latin America's first industrial-scale recycling center in Salto, processing over 100,000 tons of materials annually.

The company's revenue is generated primarily through direct B2B sales to construction companies, real estate developers, and building material retailers across Brazil, with roughly 75% of consolidated revenue derived directly from its self-sufficient forestry base. Approximately 50% of factory electricity is supplied by its proprietary R$ 300 million Castilho Solar Plant (269 MWp), developed in partnership with Comerc Energia, which underpins the company's sustainability positioning. Recent operational investments include a R$ 555.7 million capex program during 2023-2024 and an AI-driven supply chain transformation via RELEX Solutions (announced 2026-07-21), implemented by Sintec Consulting, to deploy demand forecasting and integrated inventory management across the full SKU portfolio.

Eucatex is led by CEO Flávio Maluf, who has held the role since 1997. The company is headquartered in São Paulo, operates manufacturing facilities in Salto and the broader São Paulo state, and reported R$ 3.1 billion in consolidated revenue for fiscal year 2025. Its product strategy emphasizes sustainable construction materials with verified environmental credentials, an area reinforced by the Abrart 2025 'Best Product – Real Estate Line' award for its paint line.
