ICAC Releases World Apparel Fiber Consumption Survey
August 4, 2011 Whatever type of textile fibers you want to know about, wherever you are in the world, the International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) has a publication for you: the 2011 World Apparel Fiber Consumption Survey.
The study provides data on cotton, wool, flax, cellulosic and non-cellulosic fibers available for consumption within each of 112 countries between 2000 and 2008. The methodology used in processing data and definitions of major items covered by the survey are the same as in previous FAO surveys done prior to 1995. The new FAO/ICAC survey covers 96% of world end-use fiber consumption and 98% of world mill consumption of textile fibers.
The survey is the only systematic data-gathering operation covering the world at the level of the final consumer of textile fibers, thus making it the most valuable tool to measure textile demand and trade on a world and country basis. The survey is the only set of statistics that can be used by government and private industry analysts to establish and predict textile fiber demand, market shares, and trade in manufactured textiles. Released in July 2011, the publication includes in appendix a translation of technical terms into French and Spanish.
