The aim of this work is to propose a new stock layout model for a large timber industry in the state of Para, in order to reduce activities that do not add value to the product, making the company in question more competitive. The study of the physical layout is of the utmost importance for optimizing manufacturing activities and improving stock handling. Flowcharts were used to illustrate the proposal for a new layout and its improvements in the flow of operations in the stock sector of the company studied.
