This report examines general trends and provides analyses of the international fabric machinery market. 2014 was a mixed year for producers of fabric machinery. Shipments of double jersey circular knitting machinery reached their highest level on record, and shipments of electronic flatbed knitting machinery also increased. However, there was a significant decline in shipments of single jersey circular knitting machinery, and there was a fall in shipments of hand knitting and semi-automatic flat knitting machinery to their lowest level on record. Furthermore, shipments of shuttleless looms also declined and were lower than their annual average over the ten years to 2014.

This is what our customers say: "In 1987 I was working as a graduate-trainee in the buying teams at Marks & Spencer in London. I was asked to prepare a paper on the textile and clothing industry in Italy. In my search for information I discovered Textile Outlook International. The quality of information that this publication provided was nothing short of excellent. As I look back over the past 25 years, there have been several times that I've turned to the publications of Textiles Intelligence. They have always been of the highest quality and provided me with the opportunity to talk with confidence about the global textile & clothing industries. Today, I'm the Chief Supply Office for Umbro, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nike Inc. As I look back, of course there are many factors that have helped me to get to where I am today. I've no doubt that the information provided by Textiles Intelligence has been a contributory factor." (Peter G Allison; Chief Supply Officer; Umbro International Limited)
