Wood fiber costs for the European pulp industry have fallen from the record highs of 2011, reports the Wood Resource Quarterly Wood costs for many European pulp mills have fallen the past six months as the pulp market has weakened. In the Nordic countries, pulplog and wood chip prices have fallen 11-15 percent from last spring. Despite the price decline, Europe continues to have some of the highest wood fiber costs in the world.
Last year, wood costs in many countries on the continent, including Sweden, Norway, France, Austria, Germany and Spain, reached record highs, but in all those markets, prices for pulplog and wood chips are now substantially lower.
