FIC Heliport

The closure appears to be for economic and corporate strategic reasons. The heliport was a private facility for the Rhodia chemical company, which was acquired by the Solvay Group in 2011. It is common for such private aviation assets to be decommissioned following corporate mergers and restructuring as part of cost-cutting measures and changes in executive transportation policy. There is no evidence to suggest the closure was due to an accident or military conversion.

The site is the rooftop of an administrative building within the active Solvay Group industrial complex in Paulínea. The physical helipad structure remains, but it is no longer in use for aviation. The painted markings, including the 'H', are almost completely weathered away, and the area now serves as a simple rooftop, not maintained for helicopter operations.

FIC Heliport (Heliponto FIC S/A) was a private rooftop heliport serving the large and historically significant Rhodia/Solvay chemical complex in Paulínea. Its primary operation was executive transport, allowing high-level personnel, clients, and officials to bypass ground traffic between the industrial plant and major cities like São Paulo. It was a key logistical asset for the plant, reflecting its importance in the chemical industry. The ICAO code BR-2439 designated it as a registered private aerodrome within Brazil's national aviation system.

There are no known public plans or prospects for the reopening of FIC Heliport. Given that its closure was a result of a corporate decision to streamline operations and reduce costs, its reactivation is highly unlikely unless the Solvay Group's logistical needs and transportation strategy for the Paulínea site change dramatically.
