In 2023, Italy led the European production of woven fabrics of carded wool or fine animal hair, significantly ahead of other countries, with a robust increase of 31.97% year-on-year. France and Austria also witnessed positive growth, with increases of 5.02% and 12.0%, respectively. In contrast, Portugal and Lithuania experienced declines of 11.31% and 5.49%. Minor players such as Denmark, Sweden, Macedonia, the United Kingdom, Romania, and Spain showed no significant changes, except for Spain, which saw a complete halt in production.
Looking forward, the European market's focus should be on technological advancements, sustainability efforts, and emerging markets' demands. Italy's continued dominance seems likely, but other countries could improve with innovation and adaptation to eco-friendly processes. Monitoring these trends will be crucial for strategic planning in the industry.
