In 2023, China led global non-coniferous roundwood imports with a significant gap, reaching 12.099 million cubic meters. Portugal, Belgium, Italy, and Sweden followed, but with much lower import volumes. The data for 2023 shows stable import volumes across all countries, with no year-on-year variation. The top buyers predominantly belonged to Asia and Europe, with a few North American and African countries.
Future trends to watch in the global non-coniferous roundwood market include potential shifts towards sustainable forestry practices, implications of trade policies, and increased demand from emerging markets, especially within Asia and Africa. Monitoring these shifts will be critical for stakeholders.
