The forecast indicates a steady increase in the import of synthetic filament yarn to the UK from 2024 to 2028, starting at 471.44 thousand kilograms in 2024 and growing to 487.13 thousand kilograms in 2028. This represents an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 0.83% over the five-year period. Unfortunately, without information on actual 2023 import figures, direct year-on-year comparisons to 2024 are not possible.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential changes in trade policies post-Brexit may impact import volumes.
Developments in sustainable materials could influence demand for synthetic filaments.
Global economic conditions that could affect the UK textile industry's reliance on imports.
