The forecast for the import of flax yarn to Italy indicates a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with volumes decreasing from 7.8147 million kilograms in 2024 to 6.8664 million kilograms in 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year reduction in import volumes, reflecting a steady decrease in demand or a potential rise in domestic production. Compared to 2023, when actual imports stood at an unspecified value, this downward trajectory raises strategic considerations for industry stakeholders.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in domestic flax yarn production capacity.
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable materials.
- Policy changes affecting trade and import regulations.
- Technological advancements in flax yarn production and its substitutes.
