The current trends of the global chemical fibre and thread market are reviewed. Special attention is focused on polyamide and polyester industrial threads. Structural changes in the global textile industry due to economic crisis, mechanisms of formation of regional markets in terms of types of fibres, global output and consumption of chemical fibres, and major areas of use are studied. Outlook for future growth of cellulose and synthetic fibres is elucidates, average growth rate and decline of output in various regions are shown, and dominance of China and its driving force in the growth of global textile industry are noted.
