The import of tropical flooring in the EU27 recovered in 2020 slightly despite all the circumstances. Imports increased 4% to 24,200 tonnes during the year, the gain due primarily to a 37% rise in imports from Malaysia to 9,000 tonnes, mostly destined for Belgium. Imports from Indonesia also increased slightly, by 3% to 5,900 tonnes. However imports declined sharply from Brazil, down 16% to 5,000 tonnes and Vietnam, down 22% to 2,300 tonnes.

EU27 import quantity of other joinery products from tropical countries, which mainly comprise laminated window scantlings, kitchen tops and wood doors, declined 14% to 171,800 tonnes in 2020. Imports were down 20% to 86,400 tonnes from Indonesia, 9% to 54,400 tonnes from Malaysia, and 38% to 1,700 tonnes from Ghana. However, imports increased by 5% to 16,900 tonnes from Vietnam, 11% to 3,600 tonnes from the Republic of Congo, 26% to 2,000 tonnes from Brazil, and 41% to 1,200 tonnes from India.
