Lumber - values, historical data, forecasts and news - updated on August of 2025.

The price of lumber in the United States fluctuated widely over the last five years, from a low of 240 dollars per 1,000 board feet in January 2016 to a peak of over 1,500 dollars in April 2021. This overall increase has not been linear though, with, for example, lumber prices falling by around 50 percent between June and September 2018, and again between August and October 2020. The value fell again by around 75 percent between May and August 2021. As of the end of December 2024, the price of lumber stood at 550.5 U.S. dollars per thousand board feet. Which nations are at the forefront of lumber production? The production of lumber is dependent on the availability of forest resources, market demand, and technological advances. Sustainable forest management practices a continuous supply of timber, while economic factors and construction activity drive demand. Among the countries countries with the largest production of lumber were China and the United States. Other countries with a relatively high lumber production rate were Russia, China, and Brazil.

The price of lumber has seen both an overall increase, and large amounts of volatility since 2019. From its low in early April 2020 to its peak in May 2021, the price per 1,000 board feet of lumber increased almost sevenfold, reaching ***** U.S. dollars. Yet, after reaching this peak the price then fell to below *** U.S. dollars per 1,000 board feet in August 2021 before rising again to reach over 1,000 U.S. dollars in the beginning of 2022. Since then, the price per 1,000 board feet of lumber decreased overall, reaching *** U.S. dollars as of January 29, 2025.

Timber prices in the United Kingdom fell in 2023, after having risen at a fast pace in 2021 and 2022. The price index of imported sawn or planed wood grew from 132 in 2020 to 195.6 in 2022. Meanwhile, the cost of imported plywood have increased less sharply, and therefore also had a smaller fall.

Building materials made of steel, copper and other metals had some of the highest price growth rates in the U.S. in the first half of 2025 in comparison to the previous year. The growth rate of the cost of several construction materials was slightly lower than in late 2024. It is important to note, though, that the figures provided are Producer Price Indices, which cover production within the United States, but do not include imports or tariffs. This might matter for lumber, as Canada's wood production is normally large enough that the U.S. can import it from its neighboring country. Construction material prices in the United Kingdom Similarly to these trends in the U.S., at that time the price growth rate of construction materials in the UK were generally lower 2024 than in 2023. Nevertheless, the cost of some construction materials in the UK still rose that year, with several of those items reaching price growth rates of over **** percent. Considering that those materials make up a very big share of the costs incurred for a construction project, those developments may also have affected the average construction output price in the UK. Construction material shortages during the COVID-19 pandemic During the first years of the COVID-19 pandemic, there often were supply problems and material shortages, which created instability in the construction market. According to a survey among construction contractors, the construction materials most affected by shortages in the U.S. during most of 2021 were steel and lumber. This was also a problem on the other side of the Atlantic: The share of building construction companies experiencing shortages in Germany soared between March and June 2021, staying at high levels for over a year. Meanwhile, the shortage of material or equipment was one of the main factors limiting the building activity in France in June 2022.

The Log Sawmilling industry has faced challenging conditions over the past few years. Various factors have weighed on industry revenue, including the adverse effects of COVID-19, weaker demand for timber products in the building construction markets and production bottlenecks for hardwood sawmillers. Nonetheless, new wood-based building products with broader applications have supported log sawmilling businesses by boosting their products' competitiveness over steel and other substitute building materials. Revenue is expected to have dipped at an annualised 0.8% over the five years through 2024-25 to $1.9 billion. This includes an anticipated 3.5% fall in 2024-25 because of turbulent demand conditions in the various construction markets. Industry profitability has strengthened over the past five years, recovering from a low baseline in 2019-20 when lockdowns were in force. During 2019-20, bushfires tore through Australia's forests, setting timber supply back and leaving sawmillers reeling as they tried to meet operational needs. Log sawmilling companies have undergone substantial structural change. Larger businesses have acquired other operations, while many smaller-scale enterprises have exited the industry, with mid-size companies capturing market share by acquiring the assets of failed industry businesses. This trend has enabled some mid-size industry companies, like AKD, to increase their size, improve scale economies and access adequate timber deposits. Government initiatives to kickstart rapid house construction activity and a continual expansion in softwood plantation hectares will support growth in revenue, which is forecast to climb at an annualised 3.1% over the five years through 2029-30 to $2.2 billion. Commercial construction will continue to be limited, as working from home trends are set to persist as the new norm for Australia's white-collar business world. Growth in timber pricing is set to plateau in response to an expanding volume of wood harvested. As the potential for timber oversupply limits price-driven growth, industry profitability is poised to stabilise back towards pre-pandemic levels.
