The forecast for Italy's import of greasy shorn wool indicates a significant decline over the period from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 8.31 million kilograms in 2024, it decreases by nearly 73% to 2.22 million kilograms in 2028. This suggests a sharp year-on-year reduction, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) highlighting a continuous contraction of the wool imports. This downward trend suggests a retraction from the figures of 2023, where imports were higher, reflecting a possible decrease in demand or a shift towards alternative materials.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of sustainability and eco-friendly fabrics that could further affect wool imports. Additionally, trade regulations and barriers, as well as technological innovations in textile production, may continue influencing the trend of declining wool imports into Italy.
