## Description

Few regional airports are as defined by a single company as Telêmaco Borba Airport (IATA: TEC), which sits in the Paraná town that the Klabin paper group effectively created around its Monte Alegre mill. The airport mainly handles business and regional aviation and operates no scheduled cargo terminal. The crucial point for logistics is that the region's huge pulp and paper output leaves by rail, not by air: Klabin built a dedicated railway and the KBT container terminal linking Telêmaco Borba and Ortigueira directly to the seaport of Paranaguá, moving some 16,000 export containers in its first year alone. Air shipments for the area are therefore handled through Curitiba Airport (CWB), while industrial freight rolls to the coast by train and truck. TEC illustrates a region whose logistical strength lies on the ground rather than in the air.
