Synthetic Fibre Manufacturing in Canada - Industry Market Research Report

Synthetic Fibre Manufacturing in Canada

The Canadian Synthetic Fibre Manufacturing industry has faced a challenging competitive landscape over the past five years. Lower production costs have sent downstream customers abroad while simultaneously expanding import penetration. Lacklustre innovation by domestic producers has shrunk their global competitiveness, forcing them to compete on price and putting downward pressure on profit. The COVID-19 pandemic compounded declines, leading revenue to shrink at a CAGR of 3.2% over the past five years, reaching an estimated $359.6 million in 2023. Falling oil prices and expanding disposable income levels will temporarily relieve synthetic fibre producers, precipitating an estimated 2.9% expansion in revenue in 2023.
