Starting from a value of 48.75 thousand items in 2024, the production is expected to decline yearly, reaching 31.54 thousand items by 2028. This is a decrease of approximately 12% per year on average, highlighting a continuous reduction in production volumes.
In 2023, the actual production stood slightly higher than the value for 2024, marking the beginning of a consistent year-on-year decline over the forecast period.

Important future trends to watch for include changes in consumer preferences towards synthetic or alternative materials, sustainability concerns, and potential market entry by new competitors. Additionally, advancements in production technology and cost-reduction strategies could impact these forecasts, either slowing down the decline or potentially stabilizing the production volumes.
