A representative of the UEEX became a participant in the International Conference of Softwoods 2023

On October 11-12, Vienna hosted the most anticipated traditional event of the year for the forest industry - the International Softwood Conference 2023. The participants of the event studied trends on the timber market, focusing on facts and figures reflecting the production and consumption of softwoods.

This year, representatives of more than 15 countries from all over the world came to the event.

At the beginning of the conference, the participants had the opportunity to visit the leading high-tech wood processing company in Europe - Mayr-Melnhof Holz.

Next, the main part of the event was waiting for them - speeches by speakers and powerful networking.

"Thanks to such events, we have a unique opportunity to learn more about the experience in the woodworking industry from our foreign colleagues, get answers to a number of questions about wood processing, and also evaluate market trends in Europe. All this makes it possible to build a plan of further actions to improve market conditions in Ukraine", - shares his impressions Kostiantyn Shevchuk, Deputy CEO of the Ukrainian Energy Exchange, who was the only representative from our country at the event this year.
