Recently, we have focused too much attention on the price of textile raw materials, but in addition to the changing and floating fabrics, dyeing and dyeing also affect the price of textile products. Fees are also an important factor.
According to a textile trader, when making orders, they look at the fabric price on the one hand and the dyeing fee on the other. In many cases, the weight of dyeing fees is greater than the price of fabrics, because there are many weaving mills and fierce competition, so the prices of fabrics are not much different. However, there is a large gap in dyeing costs. The prices of different regions, different processes, and different dyes are completely incomparable. The dyeing fee for a 75D four-sided elastic he is making is 1.1 yuan/meter including tax, while some dyeing factories have reported dyeing fees of about 2 yuan/meter, a difference of nearly 1 yuan/meter.
The impact of dyeing fees can be seen, and the main support for dyeing fees is dye. Each printing and dyeing factory must mention it in the notice of increasing dyeing fees. Dye costs have been increased. The rare adjustment of dyeing fees in the first half of this year does it mean that the dye market is not good?
Dye industry’s start-up rate in the first half of the year is 50-60 %, the overall market is not good
A dye industry insider said that including the mainstream major manufacturers in the dye industry, the industry’s average production capacity operating rate in the first half of the year was 50-50 60%, profits have been compressed to a certain extent, and the performance of dye companies has also been differentiated. Zhejiang Longsheng, a leading dye company, ranked first in the industry in terms of revenue and profit in the first quarter, but fell 0.6% and 9.1% year-on-year respectively; Runtu Co., Ltd.’s net profit fell 23.4% year-on-year; Yabang Co., Ltd.’s net profit fell 26.07% year-on-year.
The decline in closing prices shows that the dye market situation in the first half of this year is not optimistic. Of course, the main reason for this situation is that the downstream printing and dyeing market is not as good as in previous years, and the demand for dyes has dropped significantly.
A person in charge of a printing and dyeing factory said that after entering July, the market clearly felt the off-season conditions. Currently, the factory only receives about 300,000-400,000 meters of gray fabric into the warehouse every day, which is simply unable to meet the workshop’s daily production capacity of 700,000 meters. According to this order volume, half of the machinery and equipment in the dyeing factory are idle. Although there has been a recent environmental protection policy to limit production, because of the small number of orders, the impact of the production limit has not been felt at all.
It’s not just the textile market under the recent off-season Not good. Throughout the year since then, the production status of printing and dyeing factories has been mediocre and without any bright spots. Especially in the peak season of March and April, it was not as busy as it should be. It was only the backlog of orders from the previous year that pushed the peak, but there was insufficient follow-up on follow-up orders, and the dyeing fee was only moved at the beginning of March. .
However, the recent heavy rains that have affected chemical plants are likely to push dye prices back up. At the same time, the upcoming peak season may open up a new world for printing and dyeing plants.
Heavy rain may push up dye prices, and the peak season will stimulate an increase in dyeing fees
Recently, the country Many places have experienced heavy to heavy rains. Dozens of provinces and cities including Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, etc. covered by the Yangtze River Economic Belt will also be affected by heavy rains in the near future. This also means that 1/3 of the country’s chemical industry parks and 51 % of chemical companies along the river will be severely damaged in production, storage, transportation, etc., involving nearly 10,000 chemical companies.
This will inevitably involve a large number of textile and dyeing material production enterprises in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. A long-term suspension of production will inevitably stimulate an increase in dye prices. Especially the current time period is very special, because most printing and dyeing factories will reserve dyes several months in advance. There are still two or three months before the peak season of dye usage. The demand for dyes is about to explode. At this time, the dye factories will stop production. For printing and dyeing factories, It is “adding insult to injury”.
The recent weaving start-up rate in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions is impressive Unexpectedly, it is rising, with some areas exceeding 90%. However, the printing and dyeing start-up rate in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is flat, and there are even signs of weakening. It can be seen that the fabrics produced by weaving do not flow into the downstream printing and dyeing factories, but are hoarded at the weaving factories and trade ends. Obviously textile people will not rush to stock up on fabrics. The only reason to stock up in the off-season is to be optimistic about the peak textile season in the second half of the year. Even though the epidemic broke out globally last year, the textile market was still hot in the second half of the year. The epidemic will be further controlled in the second half of this year, and the market’s recovery will be far higher than last year.
The chemical industry shutdown caused by heavy rains has pushed �The price of dyes has been reduced. At this time, printing and dyeing factories stock up in advance and use high-priced dyes, which will inevitably be reflected in dyeing fees during the peak season when orders are busy. It is still unknown whether textile raw materials will rebound in the second half of the year, but the increase in dyeing fees seems to be a certainty.
