Entrepreneur | Co-Founder at Building Materials Wholesale, The Panel Delivery Company, MGN Builders Merchants and Morgun Sakelis Investments
We're witnessing a significant increase in Far Eastern and Chinese hardwood plywood prices, ranging from 15-20%. This trend is anticipated to continue, with a potential further rise in February. Contributing to this situation is the ongoing security issue in the Red Sea. The impact on shipping routes has been considerable, with vessels that carry plywood stock now being rerouted. Vessel operators are shifting their Asia-to-Europe services to the longer route around the Cape of Good Hope. This change extends the usual voyage time from Shanghai to northern Europe by seven to ten days, on top of the typical four-week journey. Yes, even plywood gets to travel more than some of us these days. The current outlook suggests little prospect of a return to the traditional Asia-to-Europe routes via the Red Sea in the near future, as the situation will only change once the attacks in the region subside. In light of these developments and the price increases, it's more important than ever for customers to engage in detailed discussions with our sales representatives. Doing so will ensure you find the most suitable plywood for your project needs at the best price. For those seeking a wide variety of plywood options, I recommend exploring our offerings at sheetmaterialswholesale[dot]co[dot]uk. No builders merchant or online retailer in the UK sells such a vast selection of plywood that we sell. We'll help you find the perfect fit product for your requirements, even in these challenging market conditions, and save money. #plywood #buildingmaterials #buildingproducts #wholesalesuppliers #redsea

Xinzhongya demystifies five key factors to consider when choosing to shelve 🔑⛏ 🧮1. Storage Requirements and Space Utilization Understanding your specific storage requirements is crucial. Evaluate the type, size and quantity of products you need to store. 🧱 2. Shelving materials and durability Depending on your business needs, consider factors such as weight, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. 🔧 3. Weight and load capacity Evaluate the weight capacity of the shelving unit. It is critical to select shelves that can handle the weight of your products without sagging or bending. Overloading shelves can lead to safety hazards and damage to goods. 🔨4. Flexibility and adjustability A good shelving system should be flexible and able to adapt to your changing storage needs. Look for shelving with adjustable heights or modular configurations. 🪓5. Security and accessibility Ensure that shelving units are stable, securely fastened, and equipped with features such as safety clips or guards to prevent products from accidentally spilling or falling.

Favored Status. Laminate benefits from established domestic footprint. Read more here https://bit.ly/445LESS From Chinese tariffs to pandemic-related supply chain disruptions, the U.S. flooring sector has navigated challenges. Shipping costs rose, timelines extended, and port delays occurred for imports. Yet, U.S. laminate products shine due to robust domestic manufacturing. The latest Catalina Report suggests U.S.-made laminate could achieve half of 2022's total square footage sales, up from a 45 percent share just two years prior.

Durability and ruggedness are hallmarks of high-quality commercial shelving. While it may be tempting for an operator to buy inexpensive shelves, cheap shelves become more expensive in the long run. Steel is more dependable, stronger, won't rust, and holds up to more wear and tear. This is why we create our shelving with galvanized steel - to give your shelves a long life that's 💯 worth the investment. Here's a look at the hidden expenses of cheap shelving: https://hubs.li/Q028Scy00 #kegracks #foodserviceequipment #walkincooler #restaurantmanagement
