From January to June 2010, the export of industrial textiles showed strong performance, with Asia being the largest market, accounting for 59.8% of total exports at $1.498 billion. Europe followed closely with $412 million, or 14.91% of the total. North America experienced the fastest growth, with a year-on-year increase of 101.6%, driven by U.S. government policies aimed at stimulating economic recovery during the financial crisis. This was also reflected in other regions, such as South America and Europe, where growth exceeded 40%. In contrast, Oceania saw the slowest growth at only 18.25%.
In terms of value added, Asia remained the leader, contributing $477 million, or 53.35% of the total value added. Europe followed with $157 million, representing 17.63% of the total. These figures highlight the continued importance of Asian markets in the global industrial textile trade.
Looking at the top 10 countries and regions, India led with $28.94 billion in exports, followed by the United States with $20.63 billion. Hong Kong and Vietnam were also significant players, with exports reaching $19.42 billion and $15.92 billion respectively. The U.S. saw the highest year-on-year increase in value, rising by $10.16 billion, while Vietnam recorded a massive 170.37% growth, the highest among all listed countries.
Despite the positive trends, some challenges remain. Exports of canopies, belts, and fiberglass cloths are growing rapidly, but falling prices could squeeze profit margins. If this continues, companies may reduce their exports of these products. To mitigate risks, the government has encouraged diversification, urging businesses to avoid over-reliance on European and American markets.
Moreover, demand for industrial textiles is rising in many smaller and medium-sized countries in Asia and South America. Companies should focus more on these emerging markets to reduce dependence on traditional ones. Overall, the industrial textile sector appears to be on a solid growth trajectory, supported by strong international demand and strategic market diversification efforts.
