Chips start moving in Tasmania

Friday 23 Mar 2012

Tasmania's forest industry this week welcomed news that woodchip exporter Artec will start shifting stockpiles from its Bell Bay mill. Artec has secured a 100,000 tonne order from an Asian customer. The woodchip mill temporarily closed last month, blaming a downturn in export demand and the high Australian dollar. The order will require more supplies from local sawmiller’s and private growers to meet the demand.
