Shouguang Fuji Wood NZ Pine Scaffold Boards: Quality Since 1987

Summary

Shandong Fuji Wood Industry Co. , Ltd, under the Xin Fuji brand, supplies New Zealand radiata pine scaffold boards in 38 x 225 x 3900mm dimensions. The boards feature WBP phenolic resin bonding and a 13 percent moisture content.

They offer three times the strength of solid timber and endure 72 hours in boiling water without delamination. Applications include construction scaffolding, notably the Dubai Metro project.

Commentary

New Zealand radiata pine makes up over 70 percent of China's annual log imports from NZ, serving as key feedstock for LVL scaffold board production. Shandong processors convert the pine into high-strength, waterproof boards for export to the Middle East and North America, highlighting the scale advantages of China's wood manufacturing sector. For NZ small and medium enterprises, robust log demand supports domestic forestry incomes.

However, most value is captured downstream in China, as local processing capacity remains limited. Firms with timber grading or certification capabilities could pivot toward upstream services and move higher in the supply chain. Without such moves, they remain exposed to China's environmental output restrictions and fluctuating log prices.

Large infrastructure programs in the Middle East continue to fuel scaffold demand. NZ companies might explore partnerships with Chinese processors, offering custom specifications or licensing their brands instead of exporting raw logs alone.
