NETHERLANDS – Fiberboard Market Study 2019 is the new name – and format – for the old-established MDF Yearbook, which has for many years kept the wood-based panels industry abreast of developments.

In this new-look report, the global market for fiberboard and particle board benefits from an in-depth status update from AWA Alexander Associates.

High and increasing demand – especially from the construction sector for applications such as roofing, cladding, and flooring is expected to drive sales prospects in the global wood based panels market, and industry manufacturers are investing, particularly in regional expansion, to tap these lucrative opportunities.

In its new format, the study brings to readers producer capacity listing on a global, regional, and national level; an up-to-the-minute review of the performance of the fiber – and particle board market; and details of merger and acquisitions activity within the sector, as well as individual company updates. It also features expert insights from leading industry participants such as Dr. Paolo Fantoni, CEO of the European Panel Federation; news of the lively Indian MDF market from the Federation of Indian Plywood and Panel Industry; and an interview with Dongwha on the South Korean market.

Partnering the published study is the AWA International Fiberboard Industry Conference and Exhibition, taking place in Amsterdam, 14-15 November this year, which is headlined ‘Fast forward: how to shape the industry’s future’. Details can be sourced at www.awa-bv.com/IFIC.

Delivering visions of the present and future global market, and offering a new level of ease of reference for subscribers, the Fiberboard Market Study 2019 can now be ordered online from www.awa-bv.com, where a full listing of contents is also available.
