Some sectors – like tissue and packaging – are growing quite strongly according to the consumption projections in the new report, but the printing & communication sector and unsurprisingly, the newsprint sector, will not perform as well.
“Forecasts are provided based on the last two, five and 10 years, so readers can see what will happen with the consumption of paper and board based on those scenarios,” Tim Woods from IndustryEdge said.
“Delivering forecasts to 2022 is always difficult, so we think the industry needs to see what the short and medium term historical data does to the forecasts.”
The details are included in IndustryEdge’s Pulp & Paper Industry Overview & Outlook publication, which is available as a free download for Daily Timber News subscribers.
Called Seventeen22, the brief publication is packed with details, including tables showing Australia’s and New Zealand’s place in the global industry, and simple graphics that help make sense of the large and complex industry.
Details include production, consumption, imports and exports in both Australia and New Zealand, rates of consumption growth, expert overviews and a large number of data tables.
The essential snapshot resource puts the key information and statistics at the fingertips of every business involved in supplying fibre in Australia and New Zealand, as well as those directly involved in the pulp and paper industry.
“Seventeen22 was designed to ensure that whatever sector you work in, there are details relevant to you and your business.” Mr Woods said. “If you are involved in silviculture, harvesting or haulage for example, the one page snapshot gives you the details for the last financial year.”
