The current supply and price situation is also an increasing burden for many German industry companies.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sales in the German wood industry rose by 9.1% in March 2021 compared to the same month of the previous year. This was a turnaround and the decline in sales in the first two months of 2021 was compensated.<\/p>\n

In January, sales fell by 7.9% compared to the same month last year, and in February by 0.5%.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe current situation is really extraordinary.\u00a0Most companies have good order books, but sourcing materials is difficult.\u00a0There is less planning security for companies, \u201dsaid Johannes Schw\u00f6rer, President of the Main Association of the German Timber Industry (HDH).\u00a0\"Business expectations for the next six months are becoming increasingly gloomy.\"<\/p>\n

In the first quarter of 2021, the German wood industry generated a sales increase of 0.6% compared to the same period of the previous year.\u00a0The significant increases in sales in the sawing industry (+27.1%) and wood-based materials industry (+7.9%) are mainly due to a significant expansion in production (+17.8% and +6.5%) and only partially due to price effects .\u00a0The export volumes of softwood lumber did not grow at the same rate as the production index.\u00a0It can therefore be assumed that more sawn timber remained in the currently tight domestic market.\u00a0Sales in the construction-related area of \u200b\u200bthe wood industry (+ 0.2%) remained roughly at the previous year's level.\u00a0The furniture industry (-7.7%) and the wood packaging industry (-4%), on the other hand, had to cope with significant losses in sales.<\/p>\n

The current supply and price situation is also an increasing burden for many industry companies: \"If the price increases and supply bottlenecks for raw materials and intermediate products continue, this can put a strain on the liquidity of some industry companies,\" reports Schw\u00f6rer.\u00a0\u201cIn particular, the costs for steel, solid structural timber, panel materials and plastics are rising continuously.\u00a0Especially in times of coronavirus, they represent an unforeseen additional burden for companies and make price agreements and delivery promises more difficult. \"<\/p>\n

In the German wood industry, it is primarily the processors of sawn wood products and panel materials such as the furniture and packaging industry as well as wood construction who report delivery problems with primary products.\u00a0The furniture industry, for example, is not only worried about the rise in prices; important intermediate products (wood-based materials, metal components, upholstery materials and plastic parts) are also more difficult to obtain.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see a similar situation in the plastics processing industry.\u00a0Here there are restrictions on the ability to produce and deliver because plastic deliveries are missing or delayed.\u00a0The tense situation on the global shipping routes also contributes to the difficult situation, \u201dsaid the HDH President.\u00a0All known products in the plastics processing industry are affected: standard plastics such as polyethylene (PE-LD \/ PE-LLD and PE-HD), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polystyrene (PS);\u00a0through to engineering plastics such as\u00a0B. acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyamides (PA) and polycarbonate (PC).\u00a0Similar developments can be seen in high-performance plastics in the electrical and electronics industry and the automotive industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorldwide there are disruptions in supply chains due to pandemic-related production downtimes.\u00a0At the same time, many national economies have launched economic stimulus programs to support the pandemic-ridden economy.\u00a0It is now important that the international deliveries of goods level off again.\u00a0In this exceptional global situation, only careful behavior on the part of all market partners currently helps, \u201dconcludes Schw\u00f6rer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
