Internationally, however, the demand for sawn timber remained at a satisfactory level, writes Moelven.<\/p>\n<p>Inflation, rising interest rates and higher costs generally cause private consumption to decrease. People have to prioritize what to spend their money on, and that affects the sale of wood products.<\/p>\n<p>Uncertain times affect<\/p>\n<p>The group CEO explains that the result has decreased more than the turnover with the uncertain times.<\/p>\n<p>\"The market is changeable and unpredictable. The increased costs result in lower profits on our products, and the margins are exposed to increasing pressure throughout the value chain. The market will always go up and down, but we are convinced that climate-smart products and services are more important than ever,\" says Morten Kristiansen.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moelven had a turnover of just over seven billion (EUR 619.57 million) NOK during the first six months of the year.
