The Log Sawmilling industry has faced challenging conditions in the past few years. Various factors have impacted revenue trends, including the adverse effects of COVID-19, weaker demand for timber products in the building construction markets, low pricing growth and lower demand from timber resawing and dressing companies. Nonetheless, new wood-based building products with broader applications have supported log sawmilling businesses by boosting their products' competitiveness over steel and other substitute building materials.
Industry firms operate sawmills and produce rough sawn timber, sleepers, palings and scantlings. The industry also includes resawn timber produced in the same establishments as sawmilling. Resawn timber that is manufactured after it has been sold to a specialist resawing operation is not included in the industry.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
