INFORESTA Séminaire International sur les Pins à Croissance Rapide 19 avril 2004, Bordeaux, France Highlights from Forest Products Annual Market Analysis, /4 · Forest law enforcement, governance and trade policies are being developed as countries build partnerships to control illegal logging and the trade of forest products sourced from illegal harvesting. UNECE region forest products markets turned upwards in 2002, overcoming the dip in 2001, achieving some record levels. Certified forest area worldwide extended to over 160 million hectares by mid-2003, 95% of which are in the UNECE region, however, not all potentially labeled certified forest products reach final consumers.

INFORESTA Séminaire International sur les Pins à Croissance Rapide 19 avril 2004, Bordeaux, France Highlights from Annual Market Analysis. 2/4 Total roundwood consumption for the UNECE region was 1.3 billion m 3, well within sustainable harvest limits. Structural oversupply has arisen for some products and subregions, and with strong global competition, this has increased pressure on the economic viability of forest management in some countries. Forest products markets remained weak in western Europe, with the exception of sawn softwood, which bounced back from a drop in 2001 to reach record production and exports levels.

INFORESTA Séminaire International sur les Pins à Croissance Rapide 19 avril 2004, Bordeaux, France Highlights from Annual Market Analysis. 3/4 Strong housing construction in the United States drove demand for sawn softwood and structural panels, with an increasing amount being imported. Increased market share of imported forest products led the United States to continue quotas and tariffs on Canadian sawnwood imports in 2002 through mid Markets in central and eastern Europe exhibited strong, continuing recovery in 2002, and for some products, pre- transition levels were attained.

INFORESTA Séminaire International sur les Pins à Croissance Rapide 19 avril 2004, Bordeaux, France Highlights from Annual Market Analysis. 4/4 Consumption of wood energy in the EU/EFTA rose to a record level in 2002, leading panel and pulp manufacturers to express concern about competition for their raw material. CIS exports of roundwood and sawnwood expanded to record levels, but domestic consumption remained soft. Sawn softwood consumption, production and trade rose to record levels in the UNECE region in 2002, but sawn hardwood demand peaked in 1999 and has since been falling.
