The Asia-Pacific region is expected to remain the dominant market for veneer sheets over the forecast period. The growing demand for wood products spurred by increasing urbanization and infrastructure development in China and India is the major factor driving the growth of the market. In addition, the presence of a large number of manufacturers in the region makes it easy for buyers to find suppliers, which is another factor stimulating market expansion.

Veneer Sheet Application

The market is segmented into interior and exterior applications. The interior applications segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market during the forecast period. Veneer sheets are widely used in furniture, wall paneling, cabinets, and doors.

The exterior applications segment includes cladding, decking, fencing, and siding. Veneer sheets are extensively used for these purposes, as they provide a durable surface that is resistant to weathering and rotting.

Market Expansion Restraints

High Cost of Raw Materials and Logistics. The major raw materials used in the production of veneer sheets are wood logs, which are expensive. Rising freight rates also increase the expenditures, resulting in higher prices for final products.

Volatile Price of Veneer Sheets. The prices of veneer sheets are highly volatile and fluctuate frequently due to changes in raw material cost, global economic conditions, etc.

Limited Availability of Raw Materials. Wood logs are available in limited quantities and are often subject to environmental regulations, which can impact their presence.
