The import of carded or combed staple fibres of polyesters to France is forecasted to decrease significantly from 341.92 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 243.09 thousand kilograms in 2028. This indicates a downward trend with a consistent decline in import volumes. Year-on-year, the import volume declines by approximately 7% from 2024 to 2025, 8% from 2025 to 2026, 8% from 2026 to 2027, and 9% from 2027 to 2028. The average compound annual growth rate over the forecasted period results in a consistent decrease per year.
Given current trends, future factors to watch include:
- Potential shifts in manufacturing processes or materials that could replace the need for polyester fibres.
- Changes in global trade policies or tariffs that might impact import volumes.
- Environmental regulations affecting polyester production and usage.
- Innovations in recycling technologies that might stabilize demand for polyester imports.
