The import of sails made of synthetic fiber to the US is projected to increase from 849.17 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 966.58 thousand kilograms in 2028. This indicates an upward trend, with year-on-year increases of approximately 3.56% from 2024 to 2025, 3.36% from 2025 to 2026, 3.19% from 2026 to 2027, and 3.03% from 2027 to 2028.
