“The raw materials have increased by two to three thousand, and the products have only increased by that much. The profits are really very thin!” Yesterday, the editor conducted a small survey on downstream weaving companies, and basically got this answer! Since the end of last year, textile raw materials have increased at an alarming rate. How are downstream weaving companies doing in the “cost disaster”? What do you think of the “shaky” polyester filament? The editor has compiled the feedback from several weaving company owners for you today.
General Manager Lu of a warp knitting company in Shaoxing
Main products: curtains, window screens
Required raw materials: FDY40D/24F semi-gloss, FDY100D/48F semi-gloss
Market feedback: At the beginning of this year, the overall order situation was not as good as last year. Business was very light. The dyeing factory did not announce a price increase recently. However, due to the excessive increase in chemical fiber raw materials around the Spring Festival, it caused great difficulties in receiving orders. Not only that, the company’s profit is almost zero, but it is inappropriate to shut down the machine just after the beginning of the new year. Now the machine is running only to support workers! As for the trend of raw materials, I hope it will be mainly stable. If the raw materials fall sharply in the current market situation, it will be unfavorable for receiving orders. Customers who placed early orders may also bargain.
Mr. Wang from a ribbon company in Jiangsu
Main products: elastic bands, mattress materials
Required specifications: 300D/96F low elasticity, 300D/96F light mesh
Market feedback: The order situation since the beginning of the year has been okay, but the raw materials have increased by almost two to three thousand from the second half of last year to now, but the products have basically not increased much. In addition, there was basically no stocking at the end of last year, and the profit has been very, very low. Got it! The dyeing fee has also increased a bit. Overall, the order quantity is good, but customers are generally very resistant to the increase in product prices, and the profit situation is almost at its lowest point in recent years!
Mr. Li from a circular knitting machine factory in Shaoxing
Main products: velvet
Required specifications: 150D/144F microgrid, 150D/288F microgrid, etc.
Market feedback: The order situation is average. Half of the machines are stopped and half are started. Raw materials have risen too fast, making profits too thin. In addition, we mainly focus on velvet products. Orders will mainly be in the second half of the year. Orders for other products are expected to be higher. It’s a little better, but there’s basically no profit. In addition, the debt problem is still very serious, and life is “hard haha”!
According to the editor’s investigation, although polyester filament and other textile raw materials have shown a trend of steady and slight decline, compared with the rapid rise of raw materials in the early period, textile products are far from keeping up. “The machine can be maintained even if the machine is turned on.” “Worker”, one sentence expresses the sadness of the textile boss!
