Analysis of latest trade figures for plywood supply to the EU tally with importers\u2019 comments. Total EU plywood imports have picked up a little this year, hitting 686,000 cu.m in the first quarter, nearly 5% more than the same period in 2017. However, supply constraints have meant that imports are still well below levels prevailing two years ago in 2016.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Lack of supply has been a significant drag on EU imports of tropical hardwood plywood this year. Imports from all the EU\u2019s leading tropical suppliers except Indonesia declined in the first quarter of 2018.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The volume of EU plywood imports from Indonesia increased only slightly, by 0.3% to 23,000 tonnes, in the first quarter of 2018. However, import value from Indonesia fell 10.9% to euro23.9 million during the period.<\/p>\n

In the first quarter of 2018, EU imports of tropical hardwood plywood from China contracted 16.5% by value to euro16.5 million and 5% in volume to 26,900 tonnes, and Malaysia\u2019s were down 40% to euro8.4 million and 36% to 11,350 tonnes.<\/p>\n

Imports from Gabon were 37% lower by value at euro4.6 million and 37.5% by volume to 3,250 tonnes, and from Morocco down 29% by both value and volume to euro1.9 million and 1,137 tonnes.<\/p>\n

Together with other sources, this meant total first quarter EU tropical plywood imports were 23% lower by value at euro61.9 million and 15% by volume to 74,029 tonnes.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

By individual EU country, in the first quarter of 2018, imports of tropical plywood declined in the UK by 12% to 35,331 tonnes, Belgium by 34% to 11,630 tonnes, Netherlands by 15% to 6,601 tonnes, Italy by 8% to 4,592 tonnes and Greece by 7% to 723 tonnes.<\/p>\n

In contrast, German imports increased 5% to 6,480 tonnes and French imports were up 32% to 5,530 tonnes in the first quarter of 2018. (Chart 3).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
