Investments in Russia´s wood processing will be even more profitable in the future. Only the half of the strong demand for furniture, building material out of timber and paper can be produced in Russia, although almost a fourth of the worldwide tree population stands on the Russian territory.
The business journal Kommersant points out that timber products amounting to 6,8 billion US$ are delivered to Russia. This is 40 % of the whole market volume. A huge problem is the low quality in the wood processing in Russia. Machinery and equipment are often obsolescent. In order to reflate the processing of timber in the own country, Russia subsidized investments in the timber industry. For example import duties for machinery and equipment are decreased or even eliminated. Besides Russia solicits for foreign investors with low costs for vacant land and connection fees. In this sector an interesting market opens for foreign investors.
So that foreign companies can present their competence and know-how in a professional surrounding e4win organizes together with the forum holzbau and their affiliated universities the international trade fair for the wood industry:
