Solid wood flooring is directly pressed by wood, and the second half of the year is the peak season for decoration. The demand for solid wood flooring is growing steadily, and the price is rising steadily. Analysis of several reasons for the price increase of solid wood flooring by Hunan Flooring Network.
First, the turnover of solid wood flooring has steadily increased.
Since March this year, the actual transaction of solid wood flooring has increased substantially, and the market demand has turned from steady to strong. The financial crisis caused a sharp drop in timber prices, and also delayed many renovation plans, resulting in a short construction period. Ice? . However, since March this year, the market price of wood has stabilized, the turnover of solid wood flooring has increased substantially, and the market demand has shown a strong scene. Since April, the sales of solid wood flooring have even had a small climax, plus? May day? Driven by festivals, this sales momentum has been sustained.
Second, there is a shortage of timber forest resources.
As a renewable resource, forest resources are different from non-renewable oil, coal and minerals. China's early production of solid wood flooring was basically imported from Southeast Asia. There are not many kinds of wood, but the quantity is not small. The single supply mode leads to the over-exploitation of local forest resources. At present, Africa, South America, Eastern Europe and other countries have a large number of forest resources to be developed, and the procurement of wood has also moved towards the diversified development of 100 countries and 100 tree species. Therefore, the global supply of wood resources can fully meet the consumption demand. At the same time, the rational development and utilization of forest resources can not only improve people's living standards, but also promote the natural harmony and scientific development of the ecological environment. Nature needs metabolism. If forest resources are not properly and reasonably developed and utilized, it is often easy to cause natural disasters such as forest fire, wood rot, mildew and water pollution. Therefore, based on the need of harmonious coexistence with nature and environmental protection, we should constantly enrich and beautify people's home environment by scientific and technological innovation, and avoid many unfavorable factors through scientific development and rational utilization of forest resources.
Third, the overall price of global resource-based commodities has rebounded.
In 2008, the global commodity futures market suffered heavy losses, but the prices of various commodities have obviously rebounded recently, especially steel, coal, non-ferrous metals, oil, wood and other resource commodities. Recently, the market price of wood trading has gradually stepped out of the trough and started to rise slightly, so the price of solid wood flooring will also show a steady upward trend. At the same time, affected by the economic environment since last year, the confidence of large domestic timber suppliers has been frustrated, and the total inventory of raw materials market is low. In addition, the inventory of factories and dealers is not large. In addition, the sales in March-May are good, and the demand for the upcoming renovation delivery peak period has increased. Short-term supply and demand is also an important reason for the recent increase in wood prices. With the global financial crisis gradually coming out of the trough, the pull of export demand has also pushed up prices.
Fourth, the market is picking up. The price of brand solid wood flooring has been relatively stable for a long time. The reason is that in order to maintain brand image and ensure long-term development, enterprises need to invest a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to carry out scientific and technological innovation, improve management, continuously upgrade product quality, enrich colors and improve services. As we all know, the price composition of solid wood flooring mainly includes raw materials, manufacturing and logistics, among which the cost of raw materials accounts for the largest proportion. The price of raw materials is higher, the labor cost of implementing the new labor law increases, and the grade of materials used in products is guaranteed, so the cost will only increase. With the gradual stabilization of the global economy, the activity of domestic real estate market transactions has also increased significantly, and people's consumer confidence has been further enhanced. Middle and high income groups have always been the mainstream consumer groups of solid wood flooring. They pursue the quality of life, so they pay more attention to the quality, collocation style, brand and other value elements of solid wood flooring, so they often choose assured flooring with obvious product advantages and high brand reputation.
