At Pacific Forest, we recognize the importance of staying up to date with forest market trends to offer our clients the best opportunities in acquiring wood products. As the industry evolves, it is essential to understand the economic, logistical, and commercial factors impacting the sector.

Economic Context: A Market in Evolution

The global economy faces challenges in 2025, with a projected global GDP growth of 3.0%, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Factors such as controlled inflation in major economies, the slowdown in China, and fluctuations in commodity markets will influence the stability of the forestry sector.

In Chile, the Central Bank has adjusted its GDP growth projections to a range of 1.8% to 2.5% for 2025. The strong US dollar against the Chilean peso continues to favor exports, creating strategic opportunities for wood commercialization in international markets.

Forest Exports: A Strategic Growth

Forest product exports remain relevant in Chilean foreign trade. In January 2025, exports from the sector reached US$ 566 million, representing a 7.8% increase compared to the same period last year, according to ProChile’s report on non-copper and non-lithium exports.

China positioned itself as the main destination, with shipments totaling US$ 253 million (+25.2%), highlighting sawn timber, remanufactured wood, and edge-glued panels as high-demand products. Other relevant markets include the Netherlands and Peru, with increases of 20.5% and 29.3%, respectively.

It is expected that the most in-demand products will continue to be sawn timber, remanufactured wood, and edge-glued panels, due to their versatility and wide application in construction and furniture manufacturing. Despite global economic uncertainty, the demand for sustainable forest products continues to rise. FSC certification and other environmental standards remain key competitive factors in the market.

Market Prices: A Key Moment for Purchasing

Price fluctuations in forest products will continue to shape 2025. It is projected that sawn timber and edge-glued panels will maintain a stable trend, while remanufactured wood may experience a price increase due to growing demand in the construction and interior design sectors.

The export prices of these products have remained competitive, representing a strategic opportunity for buyers looking to secure contracts at favorable prices.
