Wood industry in Uruguay has had a steady growth, the forestry area planted in the last 25 years with species accepted in Uruguay, is approximately 800.000 has (mainly, Pines and Eucalyptus).
This is one of the most incipient line of exports. Its steady progress started at the beginning of the last decade, mainly, in round wood. At present, we are going through a more vigorous drive, encouraged by the available offer in forestry plantations, which mostly does not have room in the local marketplace. That is how a pole of enormous development has generated in Uruguay for wood industry.
