European textile finishing companies face mounting import competition
- European textile finishing companies are contending with intense import competition. According to the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, most of the textile products bought in Europe come from China, Vietnam, India and Bangladesh. These countries offer significantly lower labour costs, prompting many European textile companies to offshore production. With cheaper alternatives flooding the market, European textile finishing companies, particularly those outside the luxury or high-specification technical segments, struggle to maintain market share.

Changing global supply chain dynamics will influence key input sourcing and costs
- The ongoing geopolitical uncertainties and possible trade barriers following US President Donald Trump's “Liberation Day” tariffs have been injecting volatility into global supply chains since April 2025. The new 20% blanket tariff on EU goods and 10% on UK goods is set to dampen textile exports to the US, limiting revenue from the industry's largest export market. For example, in the UK, the US accounted for 12.6% of industry exports in 2024, according to HMRC data.
