Maykon Souza

I have been Klabin's Industrial Director for Santa Catarina, São Paulo, and Pernambuco states since August 2023, which is a new phase in my 25-year journey working for the Company. During these years, I built my career in Utilities, Chemical Recovery, kraft liner, sack kraft, and recycled paper areas, where I was able to deepen my knowledge and interests in the paper and pulp industry. My academic background in Mechanical Engineering, MBA in Environment, and specializations in Pulp, Paper, and Process Kaizen Engineer have reinforced my commitment to technical excellence, efficiency, and sustainability in everything we do. I believe that the industry can and should be an agent of positive change for the environment. Another value that has always guided my career has been contributing to people’s development. I believe that any organization's success is fundamentally linked to the growth and training of its team. Promoting a learning culture, collaboration, and innovation provides each person the opportunity to reach their full potential.
