In 2023, the import of finishing agents and dye carriers with a basis of amylaceous substances to Italy stood at 1.5 million USD. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a declining trend: starting at an expected 1.3661 million USD in 2024 and dropping steadily to 0.73042 million USD by 2028. This reflects negative annual growth, with a continued year-on-year decrease from 2025 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period projects an overall reduction in imports, highlighting a persistent downward trajectory.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts in consumer demand or preferences that could stabilize or reverse the decline.
Technological innovations in textile processing that may impact import needs.
Regulatory changes affecting the textile industry and import/export dynamics.
