\n

It\u2019s been a roller coaster 12 months for the European plywood industry according to stockholder importers and distributors in the region. Prices have fluctuated following the rise and fall of key international markets, there have been supply issues due to raw material availability in some supplier countries and demand has ebbed and flowed in response.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

European importers also report increasing pressure to provide product legality, quality and performance assurance and now, with forecasts the European market will generally cool this year, plus the destabilising impacts of uncertainty surrounding Brexit, business conditions in the sector through 2019 are expected to become increasingly challenging.<\/p>\n

The market has certainly changed since the beginning of 2018, with one importer describing the first six months of last year as \u2018frenetic\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cDemand was strong across Europe, as was US consumption, with their importers buying significant volumes of Brazilian ply in particular and leading to Brazilian exports reaching around 2.2million m3 for the year,\u201d they said. \u201cConsequently prices just went up and up, with increases from Brazil accompanied by rises from China and Russia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Price inflation was also fuelled, said another importer distributor, by weather restricted raw material supply in China, Indonesia and Malaysia.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe dry season was apparently too dry, the rainy season too wet, so mills initially just weren\u2019t able to get sufficient logs and price pressure increased further,\u201d said an importer.<\/p>\n

This initial market buoyancy is reflected in the import statistics. Total EU imports for January to November 2018, comprising tropical, other hardwood and softwood plywood were up 11.1% at 2.27 million metric tonnes (MT).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
