Empresas CMPC SA
Investor Relations

In the lush landscapes of Chile, where forests weave their green tapestry, Empresas CMPC SA carves a notable place in the global pulp and paper industry. Founded in 1920, this venerable company has grown from its roots, deeply entrenched in the rich Chilean woodlands, to an influential player on the international stage. CMPC’s core business revolves around the production of pulp, paper, tissue, and packaging products, drawing strength from its sustainably managed forest plantations. By harnessing one of the world’s most renewable resources, wood, CMPC creates a seamless supply chain—from forest to finished product—ensuring both environmental and economic sustainability. The company's vertically integrated operations not only allow for control over quality and cost but also pave the way for diverse offerings that support sectors from hygiene to industrial packaging solutions.

Central to Empresas CMPC’s business model is its commitment to sustainable practices, which breathes life into its operations and brand. The company capitalizes on a closed-loop system to minimize waste and leverage the by-products of one process as raw materials for another, embodying efficient resource utilization with a conscience. This holistic approach feeds directly into its profitability, as CMPC serves markets across the Americas, Europe, and Asia, responding to varying demands for high-quality cellulose, paper, and tissue products. Furthermore, through continuous innovation and investment in technology, CMPC enhances its production efficiencies and expands its product portfolio, solidifying its position in an ever-competitive market. The company's dedication to sustainability not only resonates with environmentally conscious consumers but also aligns with global trends, fueling its business growth and reinforcing its stature as a steward of green manufacturing.
