In Italy, the per capita volume of twine, cordage, rope, and cables made from jute or other textile bast fibers is forecasted to remain steady between 2024 and 2028, holding at approximately 0.48 kilograms per capita. This represents a minor increase from 2023, which stood at 0.47 kilograms per capita. The year-on-year variation reflects stability, with a slight growth projected initially, followed by a consistent maintenance of the forecast figure through 2028.

Future trends to watch for include:

Sustainability-related innovations that could affect materials preference, potentially increasing demand for natural fiber products.
Changes in regional manufacturing practices and their impact on supply chains.
A shift in consumer behavior towards eco-friendly products that might influence market dynamics.
