The global import of carded or combed silk waste is predominantly led by Italy, representing the largest share, followed by China, Germany, and South Korea. Significant year-on-year increases were noted in Canada and Denmark at 23.2% and 160.36%, respectively, implying a shifting landscape in these regions. In contrast, Japan and Switzerland experienced notable declines at -14.88% and -19.21%, respectively.
Looking forward, expect China's share to continue rising driven by increased demand and production capabilities. South Korea's significant recent growth may stabilize, suggesting a focus on consolidating market presence. Continued attention should be paid to rising players like Austria and Bulgaria as they increase their international market influence.
