TAYGRA is a pioneer in environmental preservation and launches the CURUPIRA project, incentiving reforestation through a large-scale ecological policy. For this, TAYGRA is involved in donating 1 EURO at least by sold pair (active eco-participation) that will be used to produceyoung plants of Teak between which will be later planted nativetrees from Brazil (Cerejeira, cedro, ipê, castanha do Para, and so on...), and pay a monthly wage to the small farmers who got involved into this project. The basic idea is to finance the transformation of plots of pasture into plantations of trees & to show to the investors that this can be more profitable than any other activity in this area.

It will contribute to attenuate the global warming and to promote the rainforest as the worldwide heritage of the humanity.
