LONDON, Dec. 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — According to The Business Research Company’s research report on the wood products market, wood is increasingly being used as a building material due to the numerous advantages of wood buildings over concrete buildings, thus driving the market for wood products. Currently, the building industry is causing 25% of greenhouse gas emissions globally and therefore the concept of green building construction has evolved, which is expected to reduce CO2 emissions and store carbon. In addition, constructing buildings with wood produces less waste and allows for quicker construction when compared to a concrete building.
For instance, The University of British Columbia inaugurated an 18-storey wooden hybrid building, which was built four months faster than similar non-wooden buildings take, reducing construction time by almost 20%. Wooden building construction has increased the demand for wood components such as cross-laminated timber (CLT) and laminated veneer lumber (LVL). According to Karl-Henrik Sundström, CEO of Stora Enso, timber is becoming the building material of the future and therefore needs to meet the increasing demand from construction industries. According to the Central Statistical Office, the number of wooden buildings in Poland in 2020 almost doubled over the last five years. Countries such as the US, Japan and China are also witnessing an increase in wood construction due to its economic and environmental benefits.

According to a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), around 60% of the world’s population is expected to live in cities by 2030. This rapid urbanization is expected to boost the demand for wood materials for construction and furniture and drive the manufactured wood materials market going forward.

The global wood products market is expected to grow from $624.2 billion in 2020 to $666.3 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.%. The growth is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The market is expected to reach $866.3 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 7%.
