Asia Pacific Sawmill Machinery Market Forecast to 2031 - Regional Analysis - by Type (Fixed Sawmills and Portable Sawmills) and Application (Woodworking Industry and Forestry)

The Asia Pacific sawmill machinery market was valued at US$ 190.43 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 268.27 million by 2031; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 4.4% from 2023 to 2031.

Rising Utilization of Sawmill Byproducts in Biomass Energy Production Boosts Asia Pacific Sawmill Machinery Market

The sawmilling operation in converting wood logs into lumber resulted in the production of byproducts such as hog fuel, wood chips, shavings, sawdust, trim blocks, cross-cut timbers, and others. From the byproducts mentioned above, the wood pellets and compressed wood bricks are produced and burned with high efficiency and lower carbon emissions to produce combined heat and power for various industrial applications. In addition, demand for power generated from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, wood biomass, geothermal, and others is expected to increase in the coming years, which will eventually fuel the requirement for wood biomass products. According to the US Energy Information Administration, the electricity generated from biomass and waste in the world was valued at 3,024 trillion British thermal units (BTU) in 2022, which increased from 2,988 trillion (BTU) in 2021. Such a rise in power generation from wood biomass resulted in fueling the demand for wood biomass raw materials produced from sawmilling, which is anticipated to fuel the demand for sawmill machinery during the forecast period.

Government initiatives toward net zero emissions and energy transition goals across the world are expected to boost the demand for biomass-based energy production in the coming years. Thus, the rise in government initiatives toward the promotion of wood biomass to produce bioenergy from wood biomass products is expected to create opportunities for the companies operating in the sawmill machinery market as the demand for sawmill byproducts is expected to rise from 2023 to 2031.

Asia Pacific Sawmill Machinery Market Overview

China is one of the largest consumers of wood products worldwide. Strong demand from housing and residential buildings, wide interest in green building technology, and the shift toward prefabrication that leverages advanced wood systems are a few of the major factors contributing to the growth of the sawmill machinery market in China. The demand for wood construction from tourism sector, cultural buildings, wellness and elderly care facilities, and hybrid construction (and mid-rise and taller wood constructions) are also supporting the sawmill machinery market growth in the country. The development of the local market for wood and wood products has been a priority for the Government of China. In 2023, the government broadcasted a series of policies to support the growth of the household and real estate-furnishing industries, such as the Notice on Several Measures to Promote Household Furnishing Consumption and the Circular on Optimizing Criteria for the Recognition of Housing Units in Personal Housing Mortgage. These policies support timber businesses, which is fueling the sawmill machinery market growth in the country.
