Qingdao's furniture export industry is relatively developed, but it is always "a lot of fate." On December 2, the reporter learned that after the anti-dumping of the Qingdao furniture industry in 2004, in April 2010, it had to face the challenge of the Lacey Act. According to industry insiders, some small and medium-sized furniture export enterprises in Island City will be affected by this bill. The Lacey Act requires that all wood products exported to the United States should provide a legal source of wood, including the Latin name of the plant species, the country of harvest, the quantity and size, and the value. This bill, which was originally intended to prohibit illegal hunting for profit, has been extended to animal and plant and its products after years of revision. The implementation of the program has also gradually advanced from the initial logging to the rough processing of wood to the advanced processing of wood. The amendments to the Lacey Act, which was enacted in the United States in 2008, were originally only applicable to the timber trading sector; on October 1 this year, it was extended to the industries of wood pulp, particleboard, fiberboard, etc.; in April next year, it will apply to the entire furniture industry. It is understood that Qingdao furniture industry is relatively developed, there are more than 800 furniture enterprises in the city, of which one quarter of furniture enterprises are mainly export. “In 2008, Qingdao’s furniture enterprises exported 576 million yuan, accounting for half of Shandong Province. The United States and Japan are the most important foreign markets.” Shan Qingchuan, executive vice president and secretary general of Qingdao Furniture Association, said that the Lacey Act once started. In practice, most furniture companies in Qingdao will be affected more or less. “Large wood furniture, such as Liangmu Group and Haiyan Wood, after years of industrial upgrading and experience in anti-dumping cases, may be affected at a relatively small time, but some SMEs will face product sources. Qualified risk."
