thorough overviews of the status of the industry. They include detailed research
methodologies and analyses of collected data on synthetic fibers, cotton &
wool, and fabric & apparel.
Synthetic Fibers
Fiber
Organon
Fiber Organon is a monthly statistical review of global manufactured
fiber information, presenting the latest data on industry trends in production,
shipments, capacities, stocks, imports and exports, and consumption. Two
issues in particular are important industry planning tools: The Worldwide
Manufactured Fiber Survey, featured in the June issue every year, contains
demand, production, capacity, consumption, and utilization data by fiber
type and country or region; and the End Use Survey, published in the October
issue, measures the amount of raw materials were necessary to produce end
use items, such as apparel, floor coverings, and furniture. A brief explanation
of data collection methods and/or summary of the data are provided. The comprehensiveness
and currency of the data included, as well as the reputation of the publisher,
the Fiber Economics Bureau, makes the journal one of the most important resources
in fiber economics.
