In 2023, Italy dominated the European sold production of timber drying, impregnation, and chemical treatment services, capturing the largest share, followed by Latvia and Sweden. Norway and Finland also held notable positions. Remarkable year-on-year growth was observed in Greece and Slovakia, driven by substantial increases in demand for timber treatment services. Meanwhile, the UK and Poland experienced declines. Over the last five years, Croatia showed prominent growth, highlighting increased investment and specialization in timber services.
Looking forward, increased demand for sustainable construction materials is expected to drive growth in this sector. Countries with robust forest management policies and technological advancements like Italy and Latvia are likely to maintain their lead. Environmental regulations and carbon footprint considerations will further shape market dynamics.
