    Problems in the availability of construction materials such as metal and insulation, increasing transport costs and inflation have reduced demand and the average price of thick softwood logs in Latvia by almost 3% in June. At the same time, the demand for firewood increased the prices of hardwood firewood by 8%.

    The demand for coniferous sawlogs is decreasing

    At the end of May 2022, the demand for softwood normalized and the prices of softwood sawlogs experienced a slight drop. Meanwhile, energy wood prices reached unusual heights for May, and the demand for all wood types in Latvia is also growing. Due to the expected complete exit of the sanctioned regions - Russia and Belarus - from the European market, as well as logistical problems and the generally uncertain situation, the sawlog market will be difficult to predict.

    Wood prices rise, foreign interest increases

    April 2022 was marked by an increase in wood prices for all kinds of assortments, which can be explained by general inflation and the demand for technological wood - firewood and pulpwood. The price of small conifer sawlogs also increased proportionally. Foreign interest in buying technological wood and wood chips in Latvia has also increased, which is a consequence of the absence of Russian and Belarusian products on the market.

In the 1st quarter of this year, the price of softwood sawlogs increased by as much as 21 euros per cubic meter compared to the 4th quarter of 2021.

    Roundwood prices for softwood reach new records

    The situation of the wood market in 2021 is characterized by a rise in prices in the wood market, reaching the historically highest prices of pine and spruce. Taking into account the geopolitical situation at the beginning of 2022, the price increase will continue in 2022 as well, where the sanctions against Russia largely affects the increase in the price of wood.
