In the past two days, it has been obvious that the spring breeze has blown. At the same time, the peak season of the textile market has also reached the middle of the month. Has the textile market also warmed up with the temperature?
Dyeing factories went bankrupt and dyeing fees rose
When it comes to market conditions, we have to talk about the weather vane of the textile market – printing and dyeing factories. The recent printing and dyeing factories can only be described in one word, that is, explosive! Almost every dyeing factory reported that their factory was very busy, and the goods could not be shipped out and had to queue up. There were even factories with urgent orders that were not enough. The overall market seemed to be prosperous. Because of this, the dyeing fees of printing and dyeing factories varied. After all, the costs of printing and dyeing factories are quite high now. When the market finally hits the market, prices must be raised.
The increase in dyeing factory costs coupled with the recent increase in raw material prices has undoubtedly added a lot of cost pressure to textile companies. Under such circumstances, textile companies have finally ushered in a long-awaited price increase. Some The owner of the company said: “Because the products are better, the price has been increased, but customers also said they can accept it.” The owner of another company also said: “The price has increased, but the increase is for fabrics that have been in short supply recently, conventional fabrics. Prices haven’t gone up.”
Does this booming market mean that the market has shaken off the air-conditioning and officially bid farewell to the past and entered a new era? The editor thinks that it is far from it.
Printing and dyeing factories have insufficient operating rates
Let’s not talk about anything else. Let’s talk about the hot scene in printing and dyeing factories. In fact, it is just a bubble that will burst soon. Let’s take a look at the operating rate of printing and dyeing factories. The current operating rate of printing and dyeing factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is 77.2, but it can be seen from the picture It turns out that the operating rate is actually only the same as the year before, far from returning to the pre-epidemic level. This is not the first time in recent years that dyeing factories have been liquidated due to low operating rates. This situation will indeed bring consequences to everyone. The illusion of coming in high season.
The person in charge of a textile company said: “The peak season is coming, which is long overdue, but so far there has not been much movement. It is estimated that the demand for gold, three and silver products may be just like that.” The person in charge of another company also said: “The current market situation is not very good. At most it will be the same as in 2021.” It can be seen that the market has not yet recovered in terms of general market conditions. If we want to really see a recovery in demand, we may only be able to rely on the market situation in the second half of the year.
Fabric development is under great pressure
Through research, we found that the overall market has not improved much, but from a micro perspective, some products of some companies are indeed very bright. The products of two companies – single-filament mitong fabrics and double-layer pocket fabrics are in demand. Customers queue up with cash to wait for the goods. Although the order quantity for this type of developed products is small, the profit is high. When converted, an order of several kilometers is no less than a large order of conventional varieties. Therefore, as the pace of industrial transformation and upgrading accelerates, many Companies have joined the track of developing varieties.
However, the rise of developing fabrics has also brought pressure to enterprises. An old textile master said: “The pressure to develop new products will be much greater, the development cost is high, and the technology is difficult, which leads to higher requirements for employees. The salary of high-quality employees is definitely much higher than that of ordinary assembly line employees.” But now the market competition is too fierce. If you don’t have a good track, you will be eliminated accidentally. Therefore, no matter how great the pressure is, textile companies still can’t. Will give up easily.
In the context of the global economy facing weak challenges, companies that want to open up the market can only have greater influence and gain an invincible foothold by continuously improving themselves.
