LONDON, Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Plywood companies are increasingly integrating automation and robotics in their operations to enhance productivity and reduce costs.

For instance, in June 2019, many of the plywood industries units in Yamunanagar, India have started adopting automation in the manufacturing process, either partially or fully, due to rising labor costs and dwindling sales due to stagnation in the real estate sector.

The global plywood market size is expected to grow from $50.83 billion in 2021 to $54.79 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The global plywood market share is expected to grow to $79.65 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 9.8%.
