The Forest Product Market encompasses a range of goods derived from forests including lumber, pulp and paper, fuel wood, and other wood products. This market plays a critical economic role globally, supporting jobs in logging, processing, distribution and more.
The pulp and paper sector accounts for the largest share of the overall forest products market. Major products include graphic paper, packaging materials, tissues, paper towels, and more. There has been declining demand for graphic paper due to digital substitution, but growth in tissue and packaging papers. Top pulp and paper producing regions are North America, Europe, and East Asia.
Lumber production represents another key segment, used heavily in construction and housing markets. Softwood lumber is especially important in North American markets. However, there has been increased global competition from wood exporters like Russia and European nations.
