\n

Birch plywood is the largest single UK timber product category which will be directly affected by the trade restrictions being put in place on Russia and Belarus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The UK imported around 200,000m3\u00a0of birch plywood in 2021, of which about a third came directly from Russia, while Finland represents the largest supply source.<\/p>\n

Birch plywood is a high-quality consistent throughout product used in a very diverse range of end use applications, ranging from transport, shop and office fit out, to furniture, die-cut manufactured components and specialist packaging containers.<\/p>\n

UK's Timber Trade Federation (TTF) said it endorsed the view of the FSC and PEFC chain of custody certification schemes that goods from Russia and Belarus be classified as \u201cconflict timber\u201d and as ineligible for certification or responsible trade.<\/p>\n

However, the TTF also recognises that there are already considerable stock of birch ply in the UK or in transit, which had already been paid for prior to the conflict starting, therefore making them valid for trade.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are concerns that birch product from Russian sources is being sold into China and other countries, processed into plywood, and offered back for sale to UK and EU markets,\u201d said TTF.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever route Russian timber may take, it is still classified as conflict timber and ineligible for placing on the market.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
