Crisis in the plywood industry: shutdown of the Sveza plant in Tyumen as a symptom of the LPC's systemic problems
The shutdown of the Sveza plywood mill in Tyumen, which led to the dismissal of more than 300 employees, has become an indicator of the systemic crisis in the Russian plywood industry. The company's production facilities were loaded by only 30-55%, and since 2022 the company has been incurring significant losses. Key industry issues The main challenges faced by the plywood industry in Russia:
Expert assessment "Plywood makers simultaneously lost about 50% of the sales market — this is the most affected industry," says Timur Irtuganov, General Director of the Association of Furniture and Woodworking Industry Enterprises of Russia. Systemic consequences The decline in logging volumes indicates the depth of the crisis. The turnover of the Russian LPC is almost 4 trillion rubles, which makes the industry one of the largest non-primary production sectors in the country. Necessary support measures To stabilize the situation in the industry, it is necessary: • The introduction of increased duties on furniture from unfriendly countries • Freezing of prices for forest resources • Development of targeted programs to support plywood manufacturers • Stimulating domestic demand through government orders in construction The prospects Global plywood consumption continues to grow, but Russian manufacturers risk losing their positions by the time markets open. Without systemic support measures, the crisis could lead to further reductions in production capacity in the industry. Crisis statistics • Dismissed employees: 300+ people • Capacity utilization: 30-55% • Loss of sales markets: ~50% • Turnover of the agricultural industry of Russia: 4 trillion rubles Tags: #plywood #kris_lpk #Sveza #Tyumen #plywood industry #export_fanery Переведено «Яндекс.Переводчиком» Offline
