Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, coniferous roundwood production in South-eastern Asia remained stable at around 1.74 million m³ annually, with the market volume reaching 1.93 million m³ in 2020.

Production grew to 1.93 million m³ in 2021, and market volume expanded to 2.26 million m³, driven by the strong rebound of China's real estate market which increased regional wood demand. The upward trend continued in 2022 as production reached 1.94 million m³, supported by rising demand for wood energy due to the green energy transition and recovering construction activity.

By 2023, production advanced further to 1.99 million m³. Market movements in the later period reflect broader influences such as global macroeconomic conditions affecting housing sectors in Asia and increasing labor costs impacting wood product prices.
