Canada's Tolko announced the temporary suspension of production at two lumber mills in British Columbia due to a shortage of fiber raw materials, which will affect China's high-end engineered wood product arrivals in June by 80,000 to 100,000 cubic meters.
The 2024 annual report of the American Softwood Council shows that 1.6 billion board feet of demand will be created throughout the year, affecting 1,498 construction projects. Experts point out that this will aggravate the tight supply of North American wood to China and suggest paying attention to alternatives to engineered wood products.

Chinese importers need to pay attention to the price impact of the increase in the supply of Douglas fir structural materials from Q4 2025. The new route to Prince Rupert Port can shorten the logistics time in South China.
