FUTURE DEMAND
Two Schools of Thought
Market easily swamped; & substitutes
v.
Demand driven by high-grade tropical hardwoods and CO2 concerns
![Page 11: A STRONG PLANTATION TEAK SECTOR - Teaknet](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d3ae0736caf36b75adcfe/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
DEMAND pessimistic
• Large global surplus 2020• Substitutes
– Wood hardening– Fake finishes– Overlays– Alternative materials
• Less solid wood used (present trends)

DEMANDoptimistic
90 million m3 today (unsustainable)
150 % increase by 2050:
• 90 million ha (sustained natural forest)• 5 million ha (sustainable hardwood plantations)
Tropical Hardwoods in Short Supply in Future
