London Softwood Club hear Finnish market update

12 November 2015


Pekka Sainio of Metsäntuottajat Oy, which handles export sales for two Finnish mills Kuhmo Oy and Iisveden Metsä Oy, gave a market report at the London Softwood Club recently.

Mr Sainio said Finnish sawmill production would rise in the future due to forest growth and due to new biorefineries, with export markets being sought for the extra volume. He said sawmillers were recovering from the financial crisis.
