The future development trend of the plywood industry deserves continuous attention.

Product aspect

Environmental Protection: Against the backdrop of stricter environmental policies such as the "dual carbon" target, the industry is transitioning towards low formaldehyde and formaldehyde free adhesive technology, and E0 and ENF environmental standard products are gradually becoming popular. At the same time, the recycling rate of waste wood has been improved, and the promotion of circular economy models has been accelerated to reduce dependence on native wood.

High end and functionalization: New types of high-performance and multifunctional artificial boards continue to emerge, such as OSB, LSB and other new board materials, which will further increase their market share. In addition, the research and production of functional boards such as fireproof, flame-retardant, antibacterial, moisture-proof, and weather resistant will also be accelerated to meet the needs of different application scenarios.

Production aspect

Greening: Enterprises increase investment in environmental protection facilities, adopt clean production processes, and reduce VOCs emissions. The government encourages green technology research and development and eliminates high polluting production capacity through tax incentives and subsidies.

Intelligence: The popularization rate of automated production lines has increased, and more enterprises have achieved automation and intelligent control of the production process. They use big data and artificial intelligence technology to optimize the production process and monitor quality, improve production efficiency and product quality stability, and reduce labor costs.

In terms of market competition

Brand centralization: With the development of customized home and residential full decoration models, the trend of B-end transformation of downstream customers of panel products is obvious, and the brand effect of panel products will be more prominent, thus promoting the centralization of panel brands.

Concentration of production capacity: The continuous improvement of environmental protection and energy consumption requirements will promote the supply side structural reform of sheet metal. Some factories with small production capacity and outdated production processes will be shut down, thereby promoting the concentration of sheet metal production capacity. The industry concentration will be improved, and the competitive landscape will continue to optimize.

In terms of application areas

Cross border application expansion: The application of artificial boards, including plywood, in packaging, automotive interior and other fields has increased. For example, the moisture resistance and biodegradability of rice straw board are favored in food packaging; Outdoor landscape facilities require weather resistant artificial boards; Industrial plants may require anti-static and chemically corrosion-resistant artificial boards, and the continuous expansion of special scenarios has led to a sustained increase in market demand for high-performance artificial boards.
