Germany's exports of raw wood in 2020 amounted to around 12.7 million m3 with a value of \u20ac 845 million.\u00a0Compared to 2019, this is a quantitative increase of more than a third (42.6%).\u00a0The growth in exports does not continue at the beginning of 2021: In January and February 2021, the volume of exports fell by 12.4% compared to the same period of the previous year to 1.5 million m3 (value: \u20ac 100 million).\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The high demand for spruce and pine wood caused the export boom. In 2020 this wood made up 83.8% of the exported raw wood from Germany.<\/p>\n

In a long-term comparison, the amount of raw wood exported has more than tripled since 2015 (+ 238%), as reported by the German Federal Statistical Office (Destatis).\u00a0In 2015 exports reached 3.8 million m3 worth around \u20ac 329 million.\u00a0The import volume fell by a third (-32.4%) to 5.9 million m3 in the same period.<\/p>\n

The most important sales market in 2020 was China: half of exports (50.6%, 6.4 million m3) went there. The share has increased significantly since 2015 - at that time it was 10.1%.\u00a0In 2020, Austria (19.2% \/ 2.4 million m3) and Belgium (9.2% \/ 1.2 million m3) followed in second and third place.<\/p>\n

The suppliers of raw wood are currently hardly benefiting from the growing demand: Raw wood prices - measured by the index of producer prices for logging products - have recently increased moderately, but in February 2021 they were 2.3% below the level of the same month last year and well below 2015 level (-27.3%).\u00a0The price index for raw wood is collected from the forest administrations;\u00a0this price observation takes place when the wood is \u201charvested\u201d and thus at the very beginning of the production chain.<\/p>\n

The increasing demand from home and abroad, the shortage of supply due to the restrictions in logging as well as the construction industry have a price-driving effect on the foreign trade prices for raw wood: the index of import prices rose by 6.7% in March 2021 compared to the same month last year The export price index for this product group rose by as much as 11.0% over the same period.\u00a0In a longer-term perspective, import prices for raw wood in March 2021 were 16.1% below the level in 2015. Export prices rose by 4.0% in the same period.<\/p>\n

The development of commercial producer prices is very different in the individual product segments of the wood market, depending on the individual sawn timber ranges and wood-based materials.\u00a0For example, the prices for wooden packaging increased by 11.5% in March 2021 compared to the same month last year.\u00a0The producer prices for wood chips or wood chips, which are mainly used for heating, fell by 24.6% in the same period.<\/p>\n

Overall, however, the producer prices for processed wood rose at an above-average rate.\u00a0In March 2021, they were 13.9% up on the same month of the previous year for wood (sawn, planed or impregnated).\u00a0The prices for sawn softwood timber, including roof battens, construction timber and solid structural timber, rose the most: in March 2021 they were 20.6% higher than in March 2020.<\/p>\n

The sales of the sawing, planing and wood impregnation plants reached a record value of \u20ac 6.5 billion in 2020.\u00a0Compared to 2015, that was an increase of 18.3%.\u00a0The share of foreign sales in total sales in the industry was almost a third (32.5%) in 2020.\u00a0For comparison: in 2015 it was 26.7%.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
