Imported log prices rose, rosewood furniture, follow the price increase

"Three months ago, a red rosewood chair with a price of 22,000 yuan, the price is now at least 30,000 yuan, and the price will definitely rise later." A salesperson of a mahogany furniture store in Beijing said. The reporter was informed that according to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), which came into effect in June this year, the import of seven types of redwood species such as Dalbergia chinensis (commonly known as Laohongsian rosewood) will be restricted. China's redwoods are mainly dependent on imports, so the entry into force of this convention directly promotes the price increase of Siamese rosewood logs, and has become the fuse of the price increase of this round of mahogany furniture.

Sawn timber imports total super logs

According to the reporter's understanding, at present, the demand for Chinese rosewood is basically satisfied by imports, and the imported raw materials are roughly divided into logs and sawn timber. Since the implementation of the newly revised CITES Convention in June, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and other countries have begun to implement stricter log export restriction policies, encouraging the processing and re-export of logs, which has led to the cost of imported logs in China, such as tariffs and freight. Improved.

According to the analysis report on the import situation of Chinese redwoods issued by the Chinese Redwood Committee, in the first half of 2013, the price of precious broadleaf wood in China was above US$400/m3, and the import volume was 5,506,700 cubic meters (in terms of raw wood), an increase of 75.81%. . Among them, the precious broad-leaved logs have a total import of 1,757,600 cubic meters, and the precious broad-leaved sawn timber has a total import of 2,640,300 cubic meters. In the first half of 2013, the total amount of precious broadleaf sawn timber imported for the first time historically exceeded the total amount of imported logs.

At present, Laos has suspended the export of logs. Due to the protection of the national timber resources and the consideration of the employment of local residents, the logs are required to be processed before they can be exported. However, for Chinese mahogany furniture manufacturers, logs are better utilized than sawn timber, and materials are also more economical. For the same specifications of raw materials, the utilization value and price of logs are higher than sawn timber.

The staff of Beijing Redwood Furniture Store said: “The sawing materials of sheet and square materials are mechanically cut according to certain specifications, and in the process of making and opening the furniture, materials will be taken according to the materials required for the furniture. For example, in the production of furniture, Many places where bending is needed, the material is taken from the logs, the utilization rate is higher than that of the plates.” But now there are fewer and fewer logs on the market, especially the more and more precious logs such as Sian rosewood, which are rare, mahogany furniture manufacturers. From the past selection to the current canvassing, the number of imports has risen sharply. More and more companies are setting up factories in the country of origin, processing them into semi-finished products, and then transporting them back to the country in the form of sawn timber or semi-finished products.

Low-cost materials flood the market

The import of sawn timber is greater than that of logs, which actually reflects the scarcity of precious wood raw materials. Some expensive timber prices are rising due to exporter policy restrictions. In the past two years, relatively low-priced mahogany materials have become the mainstream of the market. For example, Barry Dalbergia and Dwarf Dalbergia, which are similar to S. chinensis, appear on the market, and large-fruit rosewood (commonly known as Burmese rosewood) is not mainstream. Mahogany furniture has also become the new favorite of consumers. It is understood that the market price of these materials is concentrated at around 50,000 yuan per ton, which is suitable for ordinary consumers.

In addition, the price of single-board materials continues to rise, and the price of precious bulk materials is four or five times worse than the price of small materials. According to the introduction of the store personnel, taking Siamese rosewood as an example, the price of the sheet of 40 cm wide and 200 cm long on the market has far exceeded the price of the small material. At present, it is difficult to see mahogany sofas with a length of more than 2 meters in various markets. The length of materials exceeds 2 meters. In addition, the thickness of the furniture is also constantly thinning. Previously, the thickness of the panel was 1.3 cm to 1.4 cm. Now many small workshops have a thickness of less than 1 cm.

According to industry insiders, the case and cabinet type mahogany furniture require more materials. Whether the panel is made of large materials or with the ingredients is directly related to the price and collection value of the mahogany furniture. Take the top box made of Siamese rosewood as an example. Although the plain surface is less than the carved material and the process is simple, but the cost is higher, the selling price is about 200,000 yuan. Undoubtedly, furniture manufacturers in the future will be more reluctant, and fine furniture will become a hot spot for buying and selling.

Unspoken rules in price inflation

Industry insiders told reporters that the current price increase is only the beginning, and the price of Siamese rosewood will continue to rise. However, in the current skyrocketing prices, consumers should be wary of small vendors selling hype prices. Sometimes, merchants will sell the mahogany furniture that was previously purchased at a low price and then switch, causing consumers to buy mahogany furniture at a high price without warranty of after-sales service, or even buy counterfeit and shoddy products.

“Furniture made of a piece of solid wood is called 'one wood and one device'. Such furniture is of high value and worthy of collection; and the value of the furniture that has been dug up will be greatly reduced, because the glue is needed for the digging. After the expiration of the shelf life, it is easy to fall off in the place where the excavation is made. There is a saying in the line that 'seeing the light does not make up', the obvious position will not be dug, usually in the hidden parts of the chair backboard, the inner panel of the cabinet, etc. The furniture that looks exactly the same, according to the number of excavation, compared with the non-digging furniture, the price can vary from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan." Sales staff of the furniture store said.
