The import of woven fabrics of true hemp, ramie, or other vegetable textile fibers or paper yarn to Germany is projected to experience a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the import volume stood at 1.68 million square meters. From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted year-on-year decline is approximately 3% on average. This downward trend reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around -3.07% over this five-year period, suggesting a consistent reduction in import volumes.
Future trends to monitor include potential shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable materials, changes in global supply chain dynamics, and the impact of technological advancements in the textiles industry, which may influence Germany's import patterns for these materials.
