Abstract
The Brazilian Forest Sector is one of the most productive in the world with a good share of the Brazilian Gross Domestic Product. The furniture sector represents about 18% of the consumption of planted wood in Brazil and employs about 35% of the workforce in the sector. They are micro and small companies that generate a lot of jobs and fix the workforce in the countryside; however, the obsolete machinery and poorly trained workforce are responsible for the low productivity and profitability of the sector. The objective of this work was to identify the main problems and point out solutions for them. The main raw material and machinery indicators were identified, as well as corrective measures for each of them. The main conclusions were that the sector must organize itself in productive poles seeking the maximum specialization or the smallest number of products per establishment.
