"China is our reliable trading
partner. In recent years the development of Russian-Chinese
cooperation has shown positive dynamics. So the volume of trade
turnover has increased with the output of the timber industry
complex. We count on the expanding of mutually beneficial
partnership," said Viktor Yevtukhov,
State Secretary, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the
Russian Federation.
Recently, export supplies of Russian products of added-value
wood processing to China have
increased: the volume of plywood supplies almost doubled, and the
supply of chipboards began.
A number of large projects involving Chinese companies are being
implemented in the Russian
Federation: a pulp mill is being built in the Zabaikalye
Territory, sawmills and pellets' projects are being implemented in
the Jewish Autonomous Region, the Irkutsk Region, and the
Khabarovsk Territory.
"Russia is a reliable partner,
providing state guarantees for investments. Today, investors
receive long-term lease of forest plots on preferential terms. The
state subsidizes the creation of new manufactures," - said
Viktor Yevtukhov.
Prospects for further growth for forestry enterprises are
predetermined by the high demand for wooden housing in many
countries of the world, as well as increasing demand of paper
products and pulp. The exchange rate and governmental support allow
us to maintain low prices for the products of the Russian timber
industry with a high quality and make them competitive.
Having participated in SYLVA WOOD 2017, Russian companies gained
the opportunity to expand mutually beneficial cooperation with
Chinese partners. Participants of the Russian stand of the timber
industry complex at the SYLVA WOOD 2017 exhibition were companies
representing such types of woodworking as LVL lumber production and
OSB boards, plywood, finishing wall and flooring materials,
furniture components and other products of added-value wood
processing.
