In 2023, Germany's import of yarn of viscose rayon filament stood at a higher level compared to the forecasted 2.9223 million kilograms for 2024. Over the next five years, a downward trend is evident, with annual imports expected to decrease progressively by roughly 6-7% per annum. By 2028, imports are estimated to decline to 2.1588 million kilograms. This trajectory outlines a consistent reduction, primarily driven by evolving demand dynamics and potential shifts towards alternative materials or cost structures. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a steady decline over this period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Advancements in sustainable alternatives to viscose rayon and their impact on market demand.
- Changes in trade policies or tariffs affecting import volumes.
- Technological innovations in textile manufacturing that may disrupt current viscose rayon usage.
