The Global Bicomponent Fiber Industry Situation and Prospects Research report is a professional and in-depth study on the current state of the Bicomponent Fiber industry.

Given the close linkages between demand, investment, trade and productivity, the extended episode of weak global growth may prove self-perpetuating in the absence of concerted policy efforts to revive investment and foster a recovery in productivity. This would impede progress towards the Sustainable Developm...
