In 2023, the re-import of woven fabric of polyester staple fibres mixed mainly or solely with man-made filaments to China stood at an unspecified baseline. From 2024 onwards, a significant decline is forecasted, from 10.96 thousand kilograms in 2024 to a mere 0.0036 thousand kilograms in 2028. This represents a sharp year-on-year decrease, with a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) highlighting a steep downward trend over these five years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of shifts in global textile demand and supply chains.
- Developments in polyester production technologies.
- Changes in China's import policies and domestic production capabilities.
- Environmental regulations influencing synthetic fibre use and trade policies.
