In 2023, the re-import of woven fabrics of combed wool or fine animal hair to Italy was unavailable as a comparative baseline, but the forecast anticipates moderate growth from 2024 to 2028, advancing from 6.41 thousand kilograms to 7.0 thousand kilograms, indicating a steady upward trend. Projected year-on-year growth rates are consistent, reflecting a stable demand increase. Over the five-year forecast period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) can be expected to suggest a modest yet steady annual increase, reinforcing the ongoing demand.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in trade policies affecting re-import tariffs or incentives in the EU.
Shifts in fashion trends impacting demand for woven fabrics.
Evolving consumer preferences towards sustainable and ethically sourced materials.
Technological advancements in textile production enhancing fabric quality or reducing costs.
