Markus Schmölzer, chairman of the Austrian sawmill industry, anticipates an increase in production at Austria's sawmills to 11 million m3 for the current year. Georg Jung, member of the Presidium of the WKO federal wood trade committee, has already noticed a normalization of trade relations. Austria is back at pre-crisis levels. After an extremely dynamic first half of 2021, the market is regaining its equilibrium and delivery times are as usual. Both industry experts are in favor of refraining from discussions about import and export restrictions in order to further stabilize, especially since exports, which are often viewed critically, are currently below the level of 2019 even without intervention.
