As a response to the raw material shortage in the industry, Sveaskog raises the prices for the private forest owners who sell their wood to the company.
The sawn timber prices are adjusted up by between SEK 80 ($7.6) and 100/m3fub and the pulpwood prices are adjusted up by SEK 25 ($2.4)/m3fub, which means that the price for softwood pulpwood is SEK 500 (47.8)/m3fub.
Sveaskog, a state-owned company, is the largest forest owner in Sweden. Sveaskog’s core business is to manage the forest, and provide timber, pulpwood, wood chips, biofuel, seedlings and forest services.
