\n

Austrian wood-processing company HS Timber Group, formerly known as Holzindustrie Schweighofer, said it will reduce its timber cutting capacity in Romania's Suceava by a third at the end of the first quarter of the year due to difficult general conditions.<\/p>\n

According to the announcement, parts of the operations in R\u0103d\u0103u\u021bi, specifically the sawmilling operations, will cease. However, the production of posts and beams at the site will remain in operation. The panel plant in Siret, which processes sawn timber from the R\u0103d\u0103u\u021bi mill, will be closed down in its entirety. With this step, the cutting capacity of HS Timber Group\u2019s sawmills in Romania will be reduced by 30%.<\/p>\n

HS Timber said that one of the primary reasons for the restructuring is the ever-increasing challenges in wood production in Romania. The purchase of Romanian roundwood has been restricted for HS Timber Group since 2016. Ukraine and Russia are not available markets for raw material purchases, due to export bans in force there.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, pending modernization of railway infrastructure in the region, as well as laborious import bureaucracy, make timber imports from other member states of the European Union challenging. In addition, the production of green energy and selling of green certificates has been made more difficult.<\/p>\n

Larger investments are required at the Siret site, which are not economically feasible under the current framework conditions.<\/p>\n

HS Timber Group GmbH will continue to operate two sawmills and one blockboard factory at other locations in Romania, which will employ approximately 2,400 people. These factories are not affected by the restructuring and will be further strengthened.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
