The state-owned enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” has completed auctions for the first quarter of 2026, during which almost all forest products were contracted, prices for hardwood species continued to rise, and prices for coniferous species stabilized, the press service of the state-owned enterprise reported.
“Forests of Ukraine” noted that the auctions were held for the first time under the zero quota for firewood exports introduced by the Cabinet of Ministers. However, in the process of competitive struggle for resources, market participants once again reached higher price levels.
Thus, 381,000 cubic meters were put up for quarterly auctions for the sale of industrial wood (PV), and almost 100% was contracted. Compared to the fourth quarter, the average price of firewood rose from UAH 2,300/cubic meter to UAH 2,600/cubic meter. The main reason was the rise in the price of hardwood from UAH 2,300/cubic meter to UAH 3,000/cubic meter. At the same time, the market value of softwood did not change significantly and amounted to UAH 2,400/cubic meter.
It is noted that the supply of firewood for sale by the State Enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” was distributed almost equally between quarterly and semi-annual (forward) auctions. The forward contracts for the first half of the year took place earlier: 100% of the resource (741 thousand cubic meters) was sold, with an average sale price of UAH 2.4 thousand/cubic meter.
“The tool for hedging price risks by concluding long-term contracts has once again proven its effectiveness. At least in the first quarter, products under semi-annual contracts for firewood will be slightly cheaper,” the state-owned enterprise stated.
Of the 775,000 cubic meters of round timber put up for sale at quarterly auctions, more than 99.5% was sold. The average selling price increased from UAH 6,800/cubic meter in the fourth quarter to UAH 7,300/cubic meter.
At the same time, “Forests of Ukraine” considers it incorrect to talk about a general increase in prices for commercial timber, since birch rose in price from UAH 5,700/cubic meter to UAH 7,600/cubic meter, oak from UAH 22,000/cubic meter to UAH 28,000/cubic meter, and ash from 8,000 UAH/cubic meter to 11,000 UAH/cubic meter. At the same time, alder has become cheaper, falling from 6,700 UAH/cubic meter to 5,900 UAH/cubic meter, and pine from 5,900 UAH/cubic meter to 5,600 UAH/cubic meter.
About 25% of the resource (654 thousand cubic meters) was put up for forward trading in commercial timber for the first half of the year. The average selling price at forward trading was slightly lower than the quarterly price and amounted to UAH 7.2 thousand/cubic meter. At the same time, while oak and ash were indeed contracted at prices lower than those at quarterly auctions, the situation was reversed for coniferous species, the state-owned enterprise noted.
