The 26 March the collapse of Baltimore\u2019s Francis Scott Key Bridge following a collision by a massive container ship that lost power is causing supply-chain disruptions among many industries, including the industries that use plywood and other wood products.<\/span><\/p>\n

While the collapsed bridge blocks the primary route into the Baltimore port, imports will not be able to enter the port and exports cannot leave. Imported commodities from overseas will need to be diverted to other ports of entry.<\/p>\n

The Port of Baltimore is the most important US port for plywood imports. Plywood, veneered panels, and similar laminated wood totalling US$425.07 million in imports moved through the port in 2023, which represents 16% of the US total import value. Baltimore is also the top port for the import of gypsum, handling 14% of the US total import value for 2023 and a key port for sawnwood imports, handling 3% of total import value last year.<\/p>\n

In January of this year, the Port moved more than 62,000 container tons of forest product, reported Furniture Today, citing Maryland statistics. That\u2019s the largest amount moved since August 2023.<\/p>\n

Far East American is one company to import hardwood plywood primarily through Baltimore. The company imports thin panel plywood from Indonesia, China, Russia, and other countries to be used in the building industry, cabinet industry and for large specialty manufacturers, according to its site.<\/p>\n

Products moving through Baltimore include Russian birch and Chinese raw and prefinished plywood panels. China Emburg Plywood is another company to use the port, importing plywood, film faced plywood and melamine boards to the US market.<\/p>\n

In 2020, major international forest product supplier Metsa\u0308 Group signed a contract with the Port. Per the agreement, Metsa\u0308 leased 75,135 square metres of warehousing space at two of the port\u2019s terminals, an increase of more than 60% compared with its previous contract signed in 2016.<\/p>\n

Based on Census data, the United States imported more than US$3.08 trillion worth of goods from overseas. Baltimore imported US$58.8 billion worth of goods in 2023, making it the 5th largest port of entry on the eastern seaboard and 15th largest overall in the US.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
