A problem found in the furniture business is that the price of many furniture will fluctuate,
but the price of solid wood furniture will only rise but not fall. Why is the price of solid wood furniture more and more expensive?
From the perspective of the entire furniture industry, the price fluctuations should account for the vast majority, and this is especially true for factories that make solid wood furniture. The reasons are mainly in the following aspects:
1. The price of wood raw materials has risen. For some popular or relatively rare solid wood materials, with the increasing control and consumption of exporting countries, the price of wood has risen. The proportion of raw materials in the price system of solid wood furniture is still relatively high, so it is also very common to increase prices along with wood.
2. Rising prices drive up labor costs. In many domestic furniture enterprises, the proportion of machinery manufacturing is not high, and manual manufacturing still occupies a very important position (especially wood products enterprises). Straight up, the wages of carpenters in some enterprises have doubled compared to 5 years ago, and these increased labor costs will definitely be apportioned into product prices.
3. After the environmental protection requirements are improved, the hardware investment of enterprises gradually increases. In recent years, with the gradual improvement of the country’s environmental protection standards for manufacturing enterprises, many furniture companies have added a lot of pollution treatment facilities. Solid wood furniture companies are more representative in the investment in dust removal, sewage treatment and other facilities, and these facilities The hardware investment is huge, and the annual depreciation and operating costs of the equipment are also amortized into the product price.
