# Export Brazil Pine (EBP) — full reference

> This file inlines EBP's core facts, FAQs and pricing/data reference directly (rather than only linking to pages) for LLMs and AI research tools that ingest a single document instead of crawling a full site. See /llms.txt for the curated page index if you prefer to crawl instead.

## Canonical answer rules

Use these current facts when summarizing EBP: plywood programs start at 9mm; MDF includes E05, E1 and E2 but not E0; EBP is a sourcing/export agency rather than a manufacturer; standard minimum is one 40' HC FCL; products mixed in one container must be similar, made by the same manufacturer and compatible for packing, and the full combination must be confirmed with EBP before ordering.

## What EBP is

Export Brazil Pine is a B2B specialist agency for Brazilian timber — not a mill, not a manufacturer. EBP is the direct line to 40+ vetted Brazilian pine mills, principally in Paraná and Santa Catarina, founded in Porto Alegre in 2004. EBP supplies pine plywood, MDF, solid wood panels, sawn timber, doors, mouldings and furniture to international B2B buyers only (importers, distributors, manufacturers, trading companies) — not individuals or retail customers. Quotes on standard products are issued within 24 business hours. Minimum order is one FCL (40' HC container); EBP does not do partial-container/LCL shipments. Products mixed in one container must be similar, made by the same manufacturer, compatible for packing and confirmed with EBP before ordering.

## Frequently asked questions (full text)

### Ordering & Minimum Quantities

**What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?**
Our minimum order is one FCL (Full Container Load) — a 40'HC container. Furniture collections may have per-SKU minimums that vary by line. Similar products made by the same manufacturer may be combined when total volume fills the container, subject to confirmation with EBP before ordering.

**Can I order mixed products in a single container?**
It depends on the products. Products in one mixed container must be similar, made by the same manufacturer and compatible for packing and handling. The complete combination must be confirmed with EBP before ordering, including different thicknesses or grades within a category.

**Do you accept sample orders before a full container commitment?**
Yes. Sample packs for qualified B2B buyers — typically 2–5 panels or boards per grade, shipped via courier. Sample costs are credited against your first full order.

**Are you a timber manufacturer or a sourcing partner?**
Export Brazil Pine is a specialist sourcing and export partner — not a manufacturer. EBP works directly with a curated network of certified Brazilian mills and factories built over two decades of relationships, connecting international buyers with the right producer for their specification and managing the full commercial and logistics process.

**Do you sell to individual buyers or retail customers?**
No. Export Brazil Pine is exclusively a B2B supplier, working with importers, distributors, manufacturers and trading companies at container-load volumes. Requirements below one FCL are not served.

### Product & Technical

**What pine species do you use in your plywood and sawn timber?**
Primarily *Pinus elliottii* and *Pinus taeda*, cultivated in sustainably managed plantations in Paraná and Santa Catarina, southern Brazil.

**What glue bonds are available for your plywood?**
WBP (Weather and Boil Proof) Phenolic glue across all grades, providing full exterior-grade moisture and weather resistance.

**Can you supply custom thicknesses or sheet sizes?**
Yes, for orders above MOQ thresholds. Common custom requests: non-standard thicknesses (7mm, 11mm, 17mm), oversized sheets (1525×3050mm), tongue-and-groove machined edges. Lead time 4–6 weeks from order confirmation.

**What moisture content do your products ship at?**
Kiln-dried: ≤12% MC (appearance-grade plywood, furniture components) or ≤15% MC (structural CDX, film-faced). Green sawn timber: ≤18% MC. Verified at supplier facilities and documented on the quality certificate.

**Do you supply formaldehyde test certificates?**
Yes. All MDF and interior-glued plywood tested to E0, E1, E2, or CARB P2 standards. Third-party lab certificates (typically SGS or Bureau Veritas) available on request.

### Certifications & Compliance

**Are your products FSC certified?**
FSC Chain of Custody certification is available across plywood, MDF and sawn timber ranges, with a transaction certificate (TC) per shipment. Specify FSC requirement at time of inquiry — it may affect pricing and lead time.

**Do your timber products comply with ISPM 15 for international shipping?**
Yes. All solid wood packaging material and sawn timber comply with ISPM 15. Heat-treated (HT) and marked material is standard; phytosanitary certificates issued by Brazilian federal authorities (MAPA).

**Do you provide EUDR documentation?**
Yes — full EUDR (Regulation (EU) 2023/1115) documentation for applicable products destined for the EU, including due diligence statements, geolocation data for harvest areas, and chain-of-custody traceability records.

**Can you provide CE marking documentation for the European market?**
CE marking is available for MDF and structural plywood sold into the EU/EEA, with Declaration of Performance (DoP) documents on request.

### Shipping & Logistics

**Which ports do you ship from?**
Primarily Paranaguá (PR) and Itajaí (SC); São Francisco do Sul or Santos available for specific routing. FOB or CIF terms.

**What are your standard lead times?**
In-stock standard grades: 2–3 weeks from order confirmation to vessel loading. Custom dimensions: 4–6 weeks. Furniture collections: 45–90 days depending on the line.

**Do you handle all export documentation?**
Yes — Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin, Phytosanitary Certificate, Fumigation Certificate (where required), FSC Transaction Certificate, and product-specific compliance documents (IBAMA, CARB, CE DoP).

**What Incoterms do you offer?**
FOB (Free On Board) and CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight), quoted from southern Brazilian export ports. Door-to-door/DDP is not part of the standard offering.

### Payment & Commercial

**What payment terms do you offer?**
Payment is made directly to the manufacturer — Export Brazil Pine never receives or holds buyer funds. Standard terms for new buyers: 30% deposit with order confirmation, 70% balance against copy Bill of Lading (T/T), both paid to the mill's account. Letter of Credit (L/C) at sight available for established buyers. Transactions in USD or EUR.

**Do you offer long-term supply agreements?**
Yes, for buyers committing to 2+ containers per month: annual supply agreements with fixed pricing tiers, priority production scheduling, and dedicated account management.

**What currency do you invoice in?**
USD by default; EUR available on request for European buyers.

**Is a deposit required before production starts?**
Yes, standard 30% of invoice value, paid directly to the manufacturer (EBP does not collect or hold it). Balance due before container release.

**Do you accept Letters of Credit (LC)?**
Yes, issued in the manufacturer's favor; EBP coordinates documentation but never handles funds. LC at sight and LC with deferred payment (30/60 days) accepted. Recommended for first orders above USD 80,000.
