Abstract
SUMMARY:
The Chinese flooring industry is growing at a pace of more than 10% a year.
Production of wood and laminated flooring in 2007 has been more than 360
million square meters a year, against 216 million in 2003. Chinese experts
believe that in year 2010 they will produce 500 million square meters and that
they will export 40% of this production, that is 200 million square meters, a
quantity not too far from the American production and only second to the whole
European production.
No wood flooring industry in the world, or distributor, or user can ignore
what is happening is China. If China will export 200 million square meters of
wood flooring in 2010, this will influence in-depth the world flooring market.
