In 2023, China's import of single cellulose acetate yarn stood at $49 million. The forecast data from 2024 onwards indicates a steady growth, with values increasing annually from $50.1 million to $53.225 million by 2028. This suggests average yearly growth of approximately 1.55% through the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years.

Year-on-year analysis reveals consistent growth: 1.61% in 2025, 1.55% in 2026, 1.5% in 2027, and 1.45% in 2028. These figures reflect a stable yet moderate increase in imports, suggesting a positive, if not rapid, market response.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in global demand for cellulose-based materials that could influence import volumes.
Technological advancements or policy shifts in China encouraging domestic production of cellulose acetate yarn.
Economic factors or trade relations impacting raw material supplies and pricing dynamics.
