FCI/NWFA Webinar: Impact of Russian/Ukrainian Conflict on Birch Plywood used in Engineered Flooring

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has escalated quickly and with severe economic sanctions that stand to impact birch plywood supply to the domestic engineered wood flooring industry. As importers, distributors and flooring manufacturers try to quickly determine their next move, a multitude of questions and concerns exist. The Floor Covering Institute and National Wood Flooring Association have partnered to provide an informational session for those interested in learning more regarding the current state of the situation. We encourage participants to submit questions and to share their own knowledge on the topic to help the industry prepare for change.
