Södra Timber is cutting production by a total of 40,000m³ of sawn timber.
It is limiting production at two sawmills – Langasjo and Ramkvilla – in week 44 and at some other mills over the Christmas and New Year break.
“Demand for timber products has fallen, and we have profitability problems,” said chief executive Peter Nilsson.
Kinda, Unnefors, Ramkvilla, Orrefors, Torsas and Langasjo will halt production between December 23 and January 9.
“These measures will allow us to start the year with balanced stocks, something we must have if we are to see a better market for timber products,” he added.
