The import of twine, cordage, rope, and cables of jute or other textile bast fibres to Italy is projected to decrease steadily from 2024 to 2028. In terms of volume, there is a gradual decline each year, starting from 8.76 million kilograms in 2024 to 8.30 million kilograms in 2028. This indicates a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period. In 2023, the import volume stood at 8.88 million kilograms, leading to an observable downward trend predicted through 2028.
Future trends to watch for include changes in the global supply chain, fluctuations in raw material prices, and shifting consumer preferences towards sustainable materials, which may further impact the import volumes and market dynamics in Italy. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for stakeholders in the industry.
