The import of twine, cordage, rope, and cables of jute or other textile bast fibres to France is projected to grow steadily from 2024 to 2028, with a slight but consistent year-on-year increase. Having registered at 28.787 million kilograms in 2023, the forecast indicates modest growth reaching approximately 29.112 million kilograms by 2028. The trends reflect an annual growth rate of around 0.2% to 0.3%, highlighting stability and a gradual increase in demand.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Fluctuations in raw material costs, impacting import volumes and decisions.
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards eco-friendly materials, potentially boosting demand for jute products.
- Trade regulations and potential environmental policies which could influence import practices.
