China's particleboard production has experienced a repeated process from the rise in the 80s of the 20th century, to the decline in the 90s, and then to the rise again in 2000. Particleboard due to poor quality and some other reasons, abandoned by the market, many particleboard companies learn a lesson, the introduction of foreign advanced production lines and improve the level of technology, China's particleboard quality has been significantly improved, and again accepted by the market, many furniture manufacturers have re-selected particleboard as raw materials, moreover, oriented strand board is gradually accepted by consumers, therefore, China's particleboard demand is increasing year by year. With the increasing demand for particleboard at home and abroad, and the introduction of preferential policies by the state to encourage the development of wood-based panel industry, it has created good conditions for the development of particleboard industry.
From January to December 2006, China's particleboard manufacturing enterprises above designated size achieved a cumulative total industrial output value of 7,072,059 thousand yuan, an increase of 26.10% over the same period of the previous year; The cumulative product sales revenue was 6,666,291 thousand yuan, an increase of 24.80% over the same period of last year; The total cumulative profit was 136,464 thousand yuan, a decrease of 25.30% over the same period of last year.
From January to November 2007, China's particleboard manufacturing enterprises above designated size achieved a cumulative total industrial output value of 9,643,562 thousand yuan, an increase of 58.17% over the same period of the previous year; The cumulative product sales revenue was 8,937,280 thousand yuan, an increase of 59.41% over the same period of last year; The total cumulative profit was 409,659 thousand yuan, an increase of 225.92% over the same period of last year.
China's particleboard industry is developing rapidly, but there are generally problems of small scale, backward equipment and technology, and many enterprises do not pay attention to product quality, and use the dust produced by bark and MDF as raw materials for particleboard, so the particleboard produced in China is generally of poor quality, and there is also a common problem of serious excess formaldehyde.
In this situation, the particleboard industry must rapidly improve the quality of products and reduce costs, and actively participate in market competition, and the market space for products is still huge. In addition to ensuring the supply of raw materials and improving product quality, enterprises should increase scientific and technological innovation, vigorously recycle waste wood, and achieve a circular economy. In order to improve the quality of particleboard and reduce costs and improve research and development capabilities, it is necessary to increase the scale of project construction and reorganize small particleboard factories to reflect economies of scale.
The level of particleboard consumed per capita by Chinese is still relatively low, but with the advancement of China's construction of a well-off society, the demand for wood-based panel products is increasing. The investment of 280 billion yuan in the Beijing Olympic Games, the direct investment of more than 25 billion yuan in the Shanghai World Expo, and the investment in fixed assets of China's urban public facilities during the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period exceeded one trillion yuan, which have brought opportunities for the development of China's particleboard industry. As a result, particleboard consumption in China is expected to increase year by year.
