Plywood exports in January-February 2015 amounted to approximately 170,000 cubic metres, which is equivalent to exports in the year-ago period. The value of plywood exports was 2.5% higher than in January-February 2014.
Finnish sawn softwood production in the 1Q 2015 totalled almost 2.6 million cubic metres, which represents a drop of 5% compared to the corresponding period in 2014. Export prices have also dropped from levels seen last year, which weakens sawmills’ competitiveness.
