Recently, a dark horse has appeared on the “hot search list” of the textile market: polyester filament with “Syria issue as the trigger for price increase” has become popular! In the early days, polyester filament very “calmly” witnessed the increase in dyes by hundreds or thousands, the “continuous increase” in dyeing fees, and the “increase in price when fabrics are out of stock”. Now it is joining the tide of price increases.
At around 9 pm Eastern Time on the 13th, U.S. President Trump delivered a speech at the White House, announcing a precision strike against chemical weapons sites in Syria. Affected by the news, crude oil prices surged strongly during the session on the 13th. As of the close on the 13th, New York crude oil May futures closed at US$67.39/barrel; Brent June futures closed at US$72.58/barrel. The surge in crude oil due to geopolitical factors has given a boost to spinning that was already “ready to move”. Some traders said: There will be no problem with this market trend by the end of May!
Crude oil “has a divine assist”, and polyester filament has started to rise in general!
Led by crude oil, polyester filament, which had been suppressed for a long time, finally experienced a general rise in the market. Chemical fiber factories even raised their quotations three times a day. Under the market situation of rising prices and buying down prices, tourists and merchants are also taking orders one after another. The market production and sales have continuously exceeded 100. It is even heard that some manufacturers’ FDY products have been sold out and are in a state of no inventory.
As of April 16, the quotations of mainstream manufacturers have increased. For example, the price of FDY50D/24F from a mainstream polyester factory in the Shengze market is 11,110 yuan/ton, and the price of 50D/72F is 11,810 yuan/ton; in addition, the price of POY from a mainstream polyester factory in the Tongxiang market has increased by 50-100 yuan/ton, and the price of DTY products has increased by 50-100 yuan/ton. RMB 50-200/ton.
Raw materials are “one price a day”, and so are gray fabrics A rising tide lifts all boats”?
As the price of raw polyester filament continues to rise, gray fabric manufacturers are also responding aggressively. Especially for some hot-selling products, the price of gray fabric is also “rising.” “The price of raw materials has been rising in the past few days, and the price of polyester taffeta from the factory and I has also increased by a few cents.” Boss Zhang, who has been doing business in Shengze area for many years, said, “The market for polyester taffeta has been relatively tight recently. If the raw materials The price has increased, and it is estimated that the price of gray fabric will also increase!”
Of course, the current gray fabric market has not yet changed due to The rise in raw materials has ushered in a general rise in the market. Most weaving manufacturers said that prices are still relatively stable. However, industry insiders said that if the price increase of this round of raw materials is between 800-1,000 yuan/ton, a general rise is inevitable. From the monitoring of sample enterprises of China Silk City Network, it is found that the current weaving inventory in Shengze area is still at the lowest level in history, and the market supply is tight, which has caused the fabric market to transform from the previous buyer’s market to today’s seller’s market, and gray fabric manufacturers have a strong say. , so under the pressure of high costs, manufacturers are bound to gradually transfer this pressure to the downstream market.
Sign the order with the front foot, and the price will increase with the back foot! Boss Bu: You will lose money if you are not careful!
Some are happy and some are sad! On the one hand, raw materials are seeing a long-awaited rise, and chemical fiber factories are laughing. On the other hand, traders are facing difficulties: raw materials and gray fabrics are rising. How to quote prices and how to accept orders?
A textile friend, Xiao Qian, was in a hurry recently: “I just signed an order for five pieces of satin yesterday, but today the gray fabric has increased by several cents. It was not easy to negotiate. All the profits are gone, and I even want my deposit back!” It is understood that the raw material of Wumao Satin is mainly triangular shaped yarn with low elasticity. This raw material has recently increased by several hundred yuan, which has caused gray fabric manufacturers to also follow suit. Price adjustment, the price has increased by nearly 2 cents compared with the end of March.
Coincidentally, another person, Xiao Shen, who is looking for imitation linen fabrics, also said that he doesn’t know how to quote the price for today’s orders because there are too many variables in the raw materials and he can’t figure out the final price for the front foot. , it has risen on the back foot, and you can only absorb the money you make when you go out and in. If something happens again in the printing and dyeing area, then it will be in vain!
From delivery time to cost, although this year’s textile market is exciting and good, it is also a headache. The author wants to say, stay calm and stay safe. The moon is bright!
