How does the global recession caused by the coronavirus affect the exports and prices of the Finnish forest industry?<\/em><\/p>\n

For Finland, the most important export destination for sawn timber is Egypt, whose main export revenue comes from tourism and oil.\u00a0Both are doing badly.\u00a0The second is China: there, industrial production slowed sharply for a while, now the situation is apparently improving.\u00a0In Japan, the situation has remained reasonable.\u00a0In Britain, construction has apparently almost come to a halt but will reopen in May.\u00a0In Saudi Arabia, the sharp fall in oil prices will reduce construction.\u00a0In Germany and France, construction has fallen sharply.\u00a0This is the situation in Finland's main sawn timber exporting countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

In many Central European countries, sawn timber production has also fallen sharply, but it is likely to recover there faster than construction.\u00a0The situation is exacerbated by the bark beetle infestation, which is sure to hit the market.\u00a0The Russian ruble has weakened sharply against the euro, the Swedish krona has also weakened, but less.\u00a0Both countries are Finland's key competitors in the sawn timber export market.\u00a0Now they have a competitive advantage as the currency weakens.<\/p>\n

For plywood, the situation is pretty much the same as for sawn timber.\u00a0As for printing papers, the situation is bad.\u00a0In most countries, people buy magazines from kiosks and shops.\u00a0Due to the coronavirus Korona, reading magazines online is growing rapidly, and advertising is also moving online.\u00a0The change is probably permanent.<\/p>\n

In cartons, the situation varies from species to species.\u00a0Demand for folding boxboard, which is made into fine packaging, will fall for a while, but will return to normal reasonably quickly.\u00a0Demand for corrugated board will increase slightly as e-commerce becomes more common.\u00a0The change will remain permanent as we learn to buy more and more products online.\u00a0Demand for liquid packaging boards will remain unchanged.<\/p>\n

Demand for tissue paper is growing steadily.\u00a0The change is not big, but still positive.\u00a0Paper handkerchiefs really become disposable and handkerchiefs made of fabrics disappear.\u00a0At the same time, the hand dryers that spread bacteria and viruses in restaurants will disappear.\u00a0Presumably, dishcloths will also be replaced with paper, dishcloths are disgusting bacterial nests.\u00a0People want to protect their own health and the health of their loved ones.<\/p>\n

Cellulose is an intermediate product of papers and board.\u00a0Its demand is important for the Finnisf forest owners.\u00a0Not only as pulpwood, but also because about 35% of the subsidies end up in the chemical forest industry as a by-product after sawing.\u00a0Demand for cellulose had already recovered before the interest rate crisis, but now it is also likely to falter for a while.<\/p>\n

Finland also produces soluble pulp, which is used to make viscose and viscose clothing.\u00a0China is the largest producer of viscose, and demand for soluble pulp has temporarily declined.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
