Wood Sectoral Report

This publication contains analyses of data related to performance of domestic and international wood (includes hardwood and softwood, as well as wood products such as wood chips, timber, wood panel, paper, tissues, pulp, plywood, firewood and logs) supply chains. This study is focussed primarily on understanding the risks associated with road and rail freight activity and the movement of freight carrying wood across Australia and other comparable economies. Key Australian freight metrics are benchmarked against the U.S., Canada, New Zealand, Brazil, and Sweden.
