Reading This As A Comparison
This chart compares 13 series side by side, not one trend over time. Read them against each other — the biggest number in the room is not automatically the most important line to follow.
Do not confuse "biggest" with "fastest-growing" — they are frequently different series on a chart like this one, and the gap between them can close faster than the current ranking suggests.
For planning purposes, the end-year figure and the growth rate are the two numbers that matter. Together they show how large the South Korea Synthetic Fibers market is projected to become and how quickly it gets there.
This is a market research forecast, not an official statistic. Values after the 2018 base year are modeled projections to 2028, based on supply-side and demand-side analysis, and are updated when market conditions change.
