In 2023, Japan's import of textile fabrics coated with gum or amylaceous substances was stable. For 2024 through 2028, forecasts predict consistent growth, peaking at 80.2 thousand kilograms by 2028. The year-on-year percentage increases are about 4% initially, slightly declining each year to 3.7%. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is approximately 4%. This indicates a steady rise in imports, suggesting increased demand or reliance on these materials.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of changes in trade policies, technological advancements in textile production, and shifts in global fashion trends. Advancements may influence the degree to which coated fabrics are favored, potentially altering demand patterns.
