Rising construction activities
Increasing construction activities are fueling the market growth. As the country is experiencing rapid urbanization and infrastructure expansion, the demand for cost-effective, strong, and flexible building materials is rising. Plywood is widely used in various construction applications, such as flooring, wall panels, partitions, roofing, and formwork. Its durability, resistance to moisture and bending, and ease of handling make it a preferred material among builders and contractors. Residential housing development, broadening of commercial complexes, renovation of old buildings, and ongoing public infrastructure projects like roads, airports, and railways are contributing to increased plywood utilization. Architects are opting for plywood because it reduces construction time and supports modern architectural designs. Moreover, plywood is employed in temporary structures and concrete shuttering, which are essential in fast-paced projects. The rising popularity of green and modular construction techniques is also catalyzing the demand for engineered wood products, such as plywood. With the growing investments in construction, both in urban and semi-urban areas, the need for reliable and affordable wood-based materials remains high. As per industry reports, the Thailand construction market size is anticipated at USD 28.01 Billion in 2025.
Growth of furniture manufacturing
The growth in furniture manufacturing is positively influencing the market in Thailand. Plywood is widely used in producing cabinets, tables, chairs, beds, and modular furniture due to its strength, lightweight nature, and smooth finish. As both domestic and export furniture markets are expanding, manufacturers continue to rely on plywood to meet volume and cost-efficiency requirements. Thailand's skilled labor, design innovation, and rising demand for customized furniture are further boosting production. Plywood’s compatibility with laminates and veneers also makes it ideal for stylish and durable furniture. Additionally, the shift towards ready-to-assemble and space-saving furniture is enhancing plywood usage. As urban lifestyles are evolving and people are seeking functional and affordable furniture, the furniture manufacturing sector continues to fuel steady growth of the market across Thailand. Industry reports indicated that the furniture market size in Thailand is set to reach USD 2.41 Billion in 2033.
Broadening of e-commerce portals
The expansion of e-commerce portals is stimulating the Thailand plywood market growth. Online platforms make it easier for people to access a wide range of plywood-based furniture and do-it-yourself (DIY) products, encouraging more purchases. Small furniture businesses and carpenters are using e-commerce to reach broader markets, driving the demand for plywood as a key raw material. Additionally, plywood is widely utilized in the production of sturdy and reusable packaging for shipping goods, especially for electronics, appliances, and heavy items. With the growing popularity of online shopping, packaging needs are rising, directly supporting plywood adoption. E-commerce expansion is also boosting the renovation and interior décor segment, as more people are seeking affordable ways to upgrade their homes. According to the IMARC Group, the Thailand e-commerce market is set to attain USD 1,156.38 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 26.85% during 2025-2033.
