Europe and Russia: A Region of Contrasts Shaping Global Softwood Markets
Europe and Russia account for roughly 43% of global industrial roundwood supply. However, the outlook differs significantly between Russia, the Nordics, the Baltics, and Central Europe, reflecting differences in forest resources, harvest intensity, industry structure, and exposure to forest damage.
Our latest report, “Global Softwood Roundwood Supply Outlook – Europe & Russia”, examines Europe and Russia’s very different market conditions and long-term outlooks. While the region remains one of the world’s most important suppliers of softwood industrial roundwood, future growth is expected to be modest, with tighter markets and generally higher log prices through 2035.
The report is the second regional study in a three-part series analysing global softwood roundwood supply and pricing across all major regions. The first report was published in April and focused on North America, while the third report, covering Latin America and Asia-Pacific, will be released in June.
The studies are conducted by Glen O’Kelly, O’Kelly Acumen (Stockholm, Sweden), and Håkan Ekström, Global Wood Trends (Seattle, USA).
