Imported wood has repeatedly soared wooden floor terminal offer will rise about 15%

It is reported that with the repeated rise in the price of imported timber, some wood flooring companies have implicitly raised the price of wood flooring to ease the pressure caused by the rise of raw materials in order to stabilize the market.

According to the analysis of the China Wood and Wood Products Circulation Association, this year will be the coldest year in the flooring industry. The overall sales volume of the industry is declining, and some small enterprises have stopped production. According to the survey conducted by the association, the sales decline in 2012 is also at least 20%. If the renovation season is still very poor in September-October, it may continue to decline by 30%. The response to the terminal, this year, the price of wood flooring will rise about 15%.

Since 2010, Southeast Asia and South America have further reduced the intensity of deforestation, resulting in rising prices of raw materials. Due to the earthquake, Indonesia also caused a shortage of timber exports. The major increase was mainly in wood species from Southeast Asia. The increase in Africa, Brazil, India, and South America was relatively small, and there were some materials that did not increase prices.

The wood species of solid wood flooring mainly depend on imports, which are affected by raw materials, so the increase in the price of solid wood flooring is naturally greater than the increase in wood flooring. The industry generally believes that raw materials prices, tight supply and demand, coupled with rising transportation costs, labor, etc., become the promoter of the rise in the price of wood floors. For resource products such as solid wood flooring, they always believe that price increases are an inevitable trend in the future.
