EU opens formal investigation into Chinese hardwood plywood dumping; suspected of originating from Russia
The European Commission has launched an anti-dumping investigation into imports of hardwood plywood from China, acting on a complaint by the Greenwood Consortium, which represents the EU's hardwood plywood industry. The consortium, which lodged its complaint on August 27, 2024, argues that Chinese imports are sold at artificially low prices, undercutting European producers and violating fair trade rules. This investigation follows mounting concerns that these imports originate from Russia, whose wood products have been banned in the EU since the Ukraine invasion in 2022.

De Europese Unie heeft onlangs een nieuwe wetgeving ingevoerd, de European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
Wat is EUDR ?
Deze regelgeving is ontworpen om ontbossing tegen te gaan en duurzame productie te bevorderen door strikte eisen te stellen aan de herkomst van bepaalde producten. De EUDR vereist dat bedrijven die producten zoals rubber, runderen, soja, palmolie, cacao, koffie en hout importeren, kunnen aantonen dat deze producten niet bijdragen aan ontbossing. Dit betekent dat bedrijven gedetailleerde informatie moeten verstrekken over de herkomst van hun producten, inclusief geolocatiegegevens, om te bewijzen dat ze afkomstig zijn uit gebieden die na 31 december 2020 niet zijn ontbost.

Onveiligheid Rode Zee en Suezkanaal zorgt voor onzekerheid aanvoer
Wij werden ingelicht door onze internationale logistieke partners over de onveilige situatie in één van de belangrijkste verbindende zeestraten tussen de Rode Zee en het Suez-kanaal. Deze kan ervoor zorgen dat de internationale logistieke keten wordt verstoord. Rebellengroepen in Jemen, die met het Palestijnse Hamas sympathiseren, viseren zeeschepen met raketten en drones. Steeds meer rederijen willen dit risico vermijden en laten de route via het Suez-kanaal links liggen. De alternatieve route via Kaap De Goede Hoop levert een extra vaartijd op van drie à vijf weken. Dit kan potentieel tot een situatie leiden vergelijkbaar met de zwaar verstoorde aanvoer van producten ten gevolge van het schip Ever Given dat in 2021 vast kwam te zitten in het Suez-kanaal.

The European Commission has initiated an official investigation into the suspected evasion of EU anti-dumping regulations by Russian birch plywood producers and trading companies.
