Outlook for Pulpwood - Global Forest Industries - Hawkins Wright
Introduction. During the past 10 years, the Asian market for hardwood chips has surged to 23 million BDMT, from just 13 million BDMT 10 years previously.
Description:However, future export availability from several key regions is increasingly uncertain owing to a combination of declining yields, changing government legislation, and the increased incidence of pest, fire and disease. Furthermore, Japanese demand for biomass which may take the form of chips, pellets, or PKS is expected to rise sharply in the coming years. These large and modern pulp mills have relatively low conversion costs, but the relatively high price of importing woodchips ensures that they and other Asian pulp mills are amongst the highest cost pulp producers in the world. Even if Indonesian pulp capacity is fully utilised, these wood supply issues and those affecting other countries will undoubtedly inflate production costs across the Asia Pacific region as a whole.
