The forecast for the import of floor coverings made from coconut fibers (coir) to China shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, with a rise from 287.71 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 305.83 thousand kilograms in 2028. As of 2023, the figure stood lower than the 2024 projection, indicating a positive trend. The year-on-year growth maintains a consistent upward pattern, particularly noticeable in the close increments of 1-2% annually, reflecting a stable demand increase.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of sustainable material preferences which could further bolster the demand for coir products, potential shifts in import tariffs or trade relations that might affect the cost or volume of imports, and technological advancements in coir processing that could expand product appeal and marketability.
