For over 100 years since its invention , denim has been produced, used and had an identity as a 100% Cotton product. It was the essential character of the fabric. However, over last more than 2 decades and specially in last 7-8 years, the basic character of this product has undergone fundamental change. Spandex , Polyesters and many other fibers have made deep inroot in this product . Inspite of spandex being used in denim for a long time, denim was still about 95-95% cotton. However, once other fibers started integrating in this industry , the scene started to change. Globally there are two categories of denim – one with more than 85% of cotton and the other will less than 85% of cotton. The first category was more than 90% even till a decade back. But things have changed and the second category with less than 85% cotton has started to become bigger and bigger.
\nIn this article, we analyse what is the total Export of denim fabric globally. We then divide this trade in the above two mentioned categories and see how the less cotton category is growing. Then we check the exports of major countries who are exporting denim fabrics and % share of their exports in the above two categories. These countries include\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0China, Pakistan, Hong Kong, Turkey, India , Italy and Japan. The segmentation of the data in 2017 is made with representations as per market share and export in one million US dollars by particular country in\u00c2\u00a0 2017. Also a comparative analysis is being done in this report to compare the export in both the categories across various countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

As we can see in the above table, the total exports of denim fabrics in 2017 was about USD 4.43 billion. Out of this , the important exporting countries ie China, Pakistan, HK, Turkey, India, Italy, Japan etc have about 85% share of exports while other countries have about 15% share. Out of the total exports of denim fabrics, we find that >85% cotton denim is about 57% while the <85% cotton category is about 43%\u00c2\u00a0 . This may not look big, but when we compare with the year 2010 we find that this share was less than 30% .<\/p>\n

India exported about USD 166 million of denim fabrics in 2010. This export had about 10% exports in less cotton denims. But when we look to 2017, we find that India’s share of less cotton exports jumped to 31% . This shows that though India is the second largest cotton producer globally, the production and exports of less cotton denim has been increasing over the years much faster than cotton rich denims .<\/p>\n

The situation totally changes when we come to less cotton denim fabrics . China completely dominates this segment with over 70% share of the global market. This shows how strong China is in man made fiber rich denim exports. Its share has been increasing over the years to and in last 5 years has increased over 60 % !\u00c2\u00a0 The other major country to increase exports in this segment is only INDIA. India has more than doubled its exports of less cotton denims since 2013 . We can understand from this report that it is mainly China and India who are driving the growth of less cotton denim fabrics . Of course we cannot really say if these are the only two countries who are producing less cotton denims in a big way as some others like Bangladesh , Turkey, Brazil, Pakistan etc consume their own fabrics either for local consumption or export of jeans.<\/p>\n
