In addition to Kaukas, the Alholma sawmill in Pietarsaari and the Seikkum sawmill in Pori may also experience several weeks of downtime during the rest of the year. However, no such downtime is planned for the Korkeakoski sawmill in Juupajoki.

Maaseudun Tulevaisuus previously reported on the restrictions on the operations of UPM sawmills .

According to the newspaper, UPM Timber has told its customers that the situation is due to the high price of wood, the uncertainty of the global operating environment, and low construction activity worldwide.

According to the company's communications, the length and timing of downtimes are constantly reviewed. During downtimes, maintenance work can be carried out at the sawmills, for example.

The company is currently commenting sparingly on the situation at the sawmills, as the listed company is in a quiet period prior to its earnings announcement.

Timber trade was sluggish at the end of the summer, says the Finnish Forest Industry.

The trade association's member companies purchased 4.8 million cubic meters of wood from private forests in July–September, which is 42 percent less than in the same quarter last year.

Timber sales were down by a third compared to the five-year average. At the same time, log prices fell by 4–5 percent from the previous quarter's record levels.

Finnish exports decline
China is increasingly using Russian timber in its construction projects, as Finnish timber exports to the country are declining, reports Maaseudun Tulevaisuus. Instead, China has upped timber imports from Belarus and the United States.

Finnish-sawn timber exports to China fell by almost a third last year, according to the agricultural paper.

China's customs statistics show Finland exporting 621,000 cubic meters of timber to China last year, a 29 percent drop compared to 2023. Russia is China's main source of foreign timber, accounting for two-thirds of the total.
