<\/span>Irish sawmills are set to increase capacity by 30% to manage the surge in timber supply following widespread forest damage caused by Storm \u00c9owyn earlier this year, according to Forest Industries Ireland (FII), the timber and forestry group within business lobby Ibec.<\/p>\n

The association said it had assessed the national sawmilling capacity and determined that timber processing levels could be scaled up significantly to accommodate the needs of forest owners seeking to bring storm-damaged logs to market.<\/p>\n

FII also confirmed that over 30 new timber harvesting machines have been brought into the country to accelerate recovery operations, bringing the total to more than 70 machines currently active on windblown sites.<\/p>\n

An analysis of satellite imagery following storms Darragh and \u00c9owyn identified 26,050 hectares of wind-damaged forestry, equivalent to more than two years of typical roundwood supply in Ireland. The majority of this \u201cwind-blown\u201d timber is expected to be harvested and processed within the next 18 months, Irish timber processors said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are fortunate to have Europe\u2019s largest timber importer on our doorstep,\u201d said FII Director Mark McAuley, referring to the UK. \u201cIn fact, the UK is the second-largest importer of sawn timber products globally.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIreland\u2019s timber processors are now stepping up their production in line with the increased supply of sawlogs stemming from Storm \u00c9owyn,\u201d he said. \u201cThere is an important message for Ireland\u2019s forest owners: the industry has the capacity to cope with the post-storm situation and to process and market the increased volume of timber.\u201d<\/p>\n

McAuley added that a well-planned and coordinated approach to harvesting and marketing would be vital to delivering the best possible outcome for affected forest owners and ensuring stability in the sector.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
