Segmentation - Plywood Market

Plywood is a wood panel material manufactured from thin layers or "plies" of wood veneer that are glued together with adjacent layers having their wood grain rotated up to 90 degrees to one another. It is an engineered wood from the family of manufactured boards which includes medium-density fibreboard (MDF) and particle board (Chipboard). Plywood has been manufactured since the 19th century and is one of the most widely used wood products globally. It finds applications in construction for use in flooring, doors, cabinets, and specialist applications like marine construction where its structural integrity and water resistance provides advantages.

Market Dynamics

Growth in the construction sector remains the key driver propelling demand for plywood globally. Rapid urbanization and infrastructure development projects especially in developing Asian markets is translating to increased consumption of plywood for applications in formwork, shuttering, flooring and structural uses. Meanwhile, the market also benefits from the product’s advantages over solid wood like uniform strength, stability of dimensions, resistance to cracking, and warping which have supported its uptake. However, volatile raw material prices pose a challenge as wood costs impact plywood prices too. Also, the market sees restraints from growing adoption of engineered wood products and other substitutes. On the positive side, ongoing product innovation towards moisture resistant grades and focus on sustainability offer new opportunities in the coming years.
