We manufacture disposable, waterproof personal protective equipment with circular thinking. All PPE is made from virgin materials with no metal components, allowing full recycling after disposal.
We manufacture and distribute AISI 304 stainless steel meshes and filters for extruders, filtering and sieving. We serve the food, mining, ceramics, agriculture and construction industries with durable, fully recyclable products.
We supply steam for industrial processes and heat for drying from alternative fuels such as RDF and biomass. Vapo builds, operates and maintains the thermal plant so the industry can focus on its own business.
Our dream began with the business vision of Grupo Fortaleza's CEO and founder, Carlos Eduardo Simonetto. Born in the midwest of Santa Catarina, he ventured early on into São Paulo. In a short time he connected his region's demand for paper with the large amount of that material generated in São Paulo. That is where the Group's first business was born: buying and selling used paper.
Since 2005 we have grown and achieved a great deal. Our portfolio includes solutions and technology that enable a circular economy, from production to the correct disposal of all materials generated by the food industry.
