In 2023, France imported 25.4 thousand kilograms of sewing thread of artificial filaments. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a consistent downward trend in import volumes. From 2024 to 2025, the import volume decreases by 10.97%, followed by a 12.02% drop from 2025 to 2026. Further declines of 13.47% in 2027 and 15.16% in 2028 are expected. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years from 2024 to 2028 is projected to be -10.57%, highlighting a significant annual reduction in import volume.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in France’s domestic production capacities, changes in consumer preferences towards sustainable or alternative materials, and the impact of regulatory changes on the import market dynamics for artificial filament sewing threads.
