In 2023, the import of woven fabrics of combed wool or of combed fine animal hair of a weight not exceeding 300 g/m2 to Germany was 1.42 million kilograms. The forecasted values show a steady decline from 2024 to 2028 with values decreasing from 1.3581 million kilograms in 2024 to 1.122 million kilograms by 2028. This represents a consistent downward trend, with an annual average decline in volume, reflecting a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential shifts towards sustainable and alternative textile materials could further reduce imports.
- Monitoring global trade policies and economic conditions that may affect the wool market.
- Technological advancements in textile production that might impact demand dynamics.
- Consumer preferences for locally sourced and environmentally friendly products may influence import volumes.
