Recently, the EU issued a new regulation for furniture imports, all wood products exported to the EU must hold FSC certification (forest certification). This measure may increase the export cost of furniture enterprises and reduce the market competitiveness of furniture manufacturing enterprises in our city.
The reporter learned from the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Committee on the 26th that there are about 10 furniture export enterprises in Chongqing, but the growth rate is rapid. According to statistics, in 2012, Chongqing's furniture exports reached 2.18 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 7.5 times, mainly exported to Europe, America, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions.
In the recent EU new furniture import regulations, wood-based furniture requires 100% legality or FSC certification. For timber and wood products imported into the European Union, all manufacturers on the production, processing and sales chain must submit basic information on the legality of the timber source, such as the source of the wood, the country and the forest, the volume and weight of the wood, the name and address of the supplier of the log.
"The new regulation is a new 'green barrier' for domestic export enterprises." Yesterday, the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission said that from a global perspective, only about 10% of FSC-certified timber is obtained. In the domestic market, less than 1% of the wood is certified on the market.
Regarding the impact of the implementation of the new regulations on EU furniture imports on the furniture export enterprises in the city, the person in charge of the city furniture industry association said that the use of certified wood, the furniture production costs will increase by at least 5%. This part of the increased cost of the enterprise will be internally digested. If it cannot be digested, it can only be passed on to the end market, which in turn weakens the price advantage of the enterprise. The person in charge said that it is expected to reduce costs, it is better to innovate product quality and process to enhance the core value of products to maintain the share of exports to the EU.
