China has long been a key player in the global building material production and trade. What was the status of China's wood-based panel imports and exports in the 2025 market? The General Administration of Customs recently released a series of data.

In early 2026, driven by the adjustment of China's domestic real estate market and the booming overseas infrastructure sector, the overseas expansion path of Chinese building materials suppliers is undergoing profound changes. From simple product trade to the integrated output of technology, production capacity and services, the full industrial chain layout has become the core direction for the industry to break through difficulties. Sustained driving force from market demand has promoted the transformation of China's building materials overseas expansion from "scale expansion" to "value deep cultivation", ushering in a new stage of global competition.

High temperatures and sandstorms in the Middle East cause cracks and moisture issues on traditional wet-construction walls; shortages of skilled workers in Europe and America double construction periods and send labor costs soaring; paint scratches and tile breakages during transoceanic shipping lead to uncontrollable losses... As a home improvement client or building materials trader, haven’t you had enough of these persistent industry pain points? The answer lies in prefabricated integrated wall panel — a global preferred solution that redefines decoration logic with "factory prefabrication + modular assembly". Its unmissable advantages precisely address core pain points in overseas scenarios, making "cost reduction, efficiency improvement + quality control" no longer a luxury.

MDF board, also known as fiberboard, is an artificial board made from wood fibers or other plant fibers, mixed with urea-formaldehyde resin or other adhesives. In addition, it boasts many excellent properties, such as a soft texture and impact resistance. Based on differences in density, it can be classified into three types: high-density, medium-density, and low-density fiberboard.

As a core base material for interior decoration and furniture manufacturing, the quality of blockboard is directly related to living safety and service durability. The quality of products on the market varies greatly, and problems such as excessive formaldehyde emission and loose structure occur from time to time, making it difficult for consumers to choose.

In the construction and home improvement sectors, products that strike a balance between practicality and reliability always become market favorites. Today, we are introducing PVC panel, a product that garners extremely high attention from customers. For clients across Europe and South America, this product is well-suited to meet local construction development needs and industry operational rhythms. SUMEC Building Material team also distributes this product in these markets.

In recent years, WPC flooring has gradually become a popular choice in the floor covering field due to its core advantages of environmental protection and durability. The iterative upgrading of portable installation technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios have further promoted its penetration from traditional outdoor scenes to diverse spaces, reshaping the industry development pattern. From home decoration to commercial renovation, from outdoor landscapes to indoor spaces, WPC flooring is adapting to different needs with a more flexible posture and has become an important growth driver in the green building materials market.
