APP Timber, a Dutch company based in Malaysia and specialized in the import of sawnwood and veneer for the
Asian timber industry, reported a 25% growth in business
in 2006, with a total trading volume of $22.4 million.
According to APP Timber, it is the largest Southeast Asian
based provider of imported sawn timber and veneer into
Asia. The company expects the trading volume to grow at
least another 25% this year due to increased marketing
operations in Asia. It promotes various plantation species
as substitutes for rubberwood, such as radiata pine and
Scandinavian pine/spruce, as well as many temperate
species from Europe, the USA and Africa. Besides
Malaysia, APP Timber has operations in Thailand,
Indonesia, Vietnam and China. A significant volume of
the timber products are FSC certified.
