Webinar Details :
While it wreaks havoc in many commodity markets, including some wood product markets, the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the wood pellet market has been muted, so far anyway. The main wood pellet end-users have reported little disruption in supply, but some are expecting trouble ahead. Fears are centred on the likely impact on raw material availability. This will affect wood pellet production in all major producing regions to a greater or lesser extent.
In this #CMTBiomass webinar, we have invited the Hawkins Wright team to discuss some of the short-term impacts of the pandemic on pellet supply and what can be expected to happen later in 2020.
Covid-19 & the Biomass Supply Chain – Global Impacts on Availability of Fiber Resources & Wood Pellet Supply
- COVID-19 and wood fibre availability
