Market Analysis

Laminated Veneer Lumber Market Overview:

The market for laminated veneer lumber is experiencing steady growth, driven by the expansion of the construction industry, especially in emerging economies. The demand for LVL is increasing in residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects due to its strength and reliability in structural applications. According to the Deloitte Research Center for Energy & Industrials, the construction industry entered 2023 with a 7% increase in nominal value added and a 6% in nominal gross output compared to the previous year.

For instance, in January 2024, Boise Cascade Wood Products announced that it plans to invest $75 million to expand and modernize key machine centers at its Oakdale facility in Allen Parish. These projects will increase veneer production capacity by 30% and allow the facility to produce up to 400 million square feet of dry veneer annually.

Laminated Veneer Lumber Market Trends:

Rising Focus on Environmental Sustainability

The growing awareness about environmental issues and the rising push for sustainable building materials are making LVL more popular, which is contributing to the growth of the market. LVL is viewed as a more environmentally friendly option compared to traditional solid wood products because it makes efficient use of wood resources by minimizing waste, which is influencing the demand for LVL.

According to the US Green Building Council’s 2023 report, sustainability is a top priority for most surveyed E&C firms, as it aligns with their organizational mission and business strategies. This is further expected to fuel the demand for LVL over the coming years.

Significant Advancements in Technology

Technological advancements in the manufacturing process of LVL enhance its properties like load-bearing capacity, uniformity, and resistance to warping, which is acting as a major growth-inducing factor in the market. Improved technology also allows the production of laminated veneer lumber in larger and more varied sizes, broadening its application in construction and driving increased demand for LVL. For instance, in February 2022, leading building products innovator Huber Engineered Woods introduced ZIP System peel and stick underlayment, expanding its line of ZIP System Building Enclosure products. The self-adhered waterproofing roof underlayment provides an additional layer of protection against water intrusion due to ice dams or wind-driven rain. When applied in combination with ZIP System sheathing and tape, eligible projects can register for a Leak Free Guarantee.
