Wool Prices In Australia and South Africa (Weekly)
While local wool markets remain relatively stable, persistent softness in USD terms and continued pressure on superfine categories highlight the market’s reliance on revived global demand and favorable currency dynamics. This report provides a detailed analysis of wool prices in both Australia and South Africa, covering a wide range of micron types. Prices are presented in Australian Dollars (AUD), US Dollars (USD), and Euros (EUR). Historical data spanning the past decade is also available for download.

Textile Fiber Price Comparison (Weekly)
Global fiber markets softened this week under the combined weight of weaker demand and a declining US dollar, with wool standing out as the only fiber maintaining year-on-year gains. Our weekly report provides a detailed analysis of benchmark indicators within the textile fiber market. The report includes comparisons between cotton, polyester, viscose, nylon, wool, and acrylic, with prices displayed in US dollars per kilogram.

US Apparel Import Tariffs Shock
President Trump has announced new “reciprocal tariffs” that hit Asian apparel suppliers particularly hard, with total duties on apparel now reaching an average of 84% for China, 61% for Vietnam, and similarly high levels for others. We have compiled detailed tables listing the new tariff rates by apparel-exporting country. The De Minimis rule may also be withdrawn as early as May, adding further pressure. These measures are expected to have dramatic consequences for the global apparel industry.
Cotton & Polyester Price Comparison (Monthly)
The average monthly data for March 2025 confirms a steady decline in cotton prices and a more gradual drop in polyester prices, with the narrowing cost gap between the two fibers signaling a shift toward greater substitution in key Asian markets.
