Wood Market Edge provides a comprehensive monthly trade and market analysis of wood products available in Australia by covering all relevant products and trade and economic information impacting the Australian markets.

Subscribers have fingertip access to historic and current data that is updated monthly and is available on a 24/7/365 basis.

“This partnership will bring tremendous opportunities for IndustryEdge to expand its global reach,” Tim Woods, Managing Director of IndustryEdge said.

“To meet the ever-expanding competitive challenges in markets and supply chains, stakeholders at all levels of the global forest supply chain need increased access to the reliable data and robust analytics that impact them the most.

“By moving Wood Market Edge to SilvaStat360, we are adding significant value for our subscribers, both in terms of additional data and usability.”

Key features of the new digital version of the product include:

  1. Visual mapping of wood products trade flows between countries
  2. Detailed data displaying total demand for sawnwood on an ongoing basis
  3. Automatic charting based on user selections
  4. Powerful data visualisations providing instant insights into global trade flows
  5. Custom downloads of data and charts, and continued access to complete data files

“Since its inception, Forest2Market’s mission has been to increase the efficiency of the forest products industry and its supply chain through the application of unique datasets and industry expertise,” Pete Stewart, president and CEO of Forest2Market said.

“By providing IndustryEdge with a user-friendly interactive platform that offers subscribers the ability to find the exact data they need when they need it, as well as timely and insightful analysis from Tim, we are fulfilling that mission.

“We are excited to bring another partner to our platform, which is quickly becoming a one-stop source of high-value information for stakeholders across the global forest value chain.”

With an expected launch in April 2020, IndustryEdge and Forest2Market will soon be demonstrating the product and accepting new subscriptions.
