Based on its extensive knowledge of textile end-use products and markets, DRA has created a system for describing and forecasting world textile end-use (citizen) consumption by final product and calculating the implied volumes of different types of fibre, yarn, fabric and levels of finish.
DRAs "Textile End-Use Consumption Forecasting System" analyses current consumption of 300 separate end-use products by region in terms of 20 fibre, 8 yarn, 20 fabric and 6 finish types.

THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN USED TO ANALYSE LIKELY FUTURE COMPETITION AMONG:
