Do you think you really don’t answer? In fact, I just don’t dare to pick it up!
“The temperature was too high during the day and the motor burned. The machine caught fire at nine o’clock in the middle of the night. Fortunately, the workers were trained to put out the fire in time. I was scared to death. One of the pan heads was completely destroyed…” the textile boss said.
Sure enough, a week of continuous hot days is not only unbearable for people, but also for machines. Assuming that no one is on duty at the factory in the middle of the night, or the workers are not trained, the losses caused can be imagined.
However, the cool off-season has not brought any coolness to the sweltering summer. In fact, the current market situation is not so bad that it cannot receive orders. Several weaving manufacturers that the editor is familiar with are still receiving orders, but it is precisely because The single connection has also caused a lot of trouble for textile bosses.
It’s really helpless if you don’t accept orders.
This summer seems to be extremely hot. Although it was hot in previous years, the high temperature of 40 degrees was very rare. The continuous high temperature days made the textile bosses think about taking a holiday. Some took three days, some took a week…
“Anyway, there are no orders, and the weather is still so hot. Let’s put it aside for a week,” said a weaver.
Even if textile bosses don’t take holidays on such hot days, workers can’t bear it. Asking for leave is a trivial matter, and some even leave their jobs. You must know that in addition to overcapacity and sharp drop in demand, weaving manufacturers also face a major problem, which is recruiting workers. In this way With the market situation and the weather like this, if the order comes and there are no workers on duty, then all the ducks in the mouth will fly away.
“Our factory now doesn’t dare to accept some orders. Some urgent orders are urgently pressed by customers. Workers ask for leave on hot days. They cannot be completed in a short period of time. If they cannot be completed within the specified time, customers will not come to us to get goods in the future.” said the weaver.
Indeed, doing business requires integrity. If you take an urgent order but cannot complete it, the customer will definitely think that there is a problem with the weaver’s integrity and will not contact him to get goods next time. Losing a customer with one order is a big deal for a textile boss. Big loss.
High temperatures in the off-season make it even more difficult
Textile bosses have long been accustomed to the off-season. They have never experienced a peak season since the beginning of this year. Some textile bosses said frankly that they would continue to reduce production if the market is still so bad and the weather is so hot in the future.
According to the operating rate of sample enterprises monitored by Silkdu.com, it can be seen that the operating rate has always been at a low level in the recent stage, currently around 54%. The operating rate since the beginning of the year has not exceeded 80%. First, there was an epidemic of cholera in the market, and then there were off-season high temperature shutdowns and holidays. Production will continue to be reduced in the later period, and the operating rate may continue to decline.
However, most manufacturers actually have orders on hand at present, but they are shutting down for repairs due to high temperature weather to ensure workers’ comfort and safety concerns. Assuming that the temperature drops later, they will still start up immediately to rush for orders. The current start-up rate may also be in the near future. The lowest, after this time it will naturally start to rise.
For this year’s textile market, we can only place our hope on the Golden Nine and Silver Ten in the second half of the year. However, most textile bosses do not have much hope for the second half of the year. There are too many uncertain factors that have caused textile people to lose confidence in the market.
It is now in the off-season, orders have been reduced, and textile bosses are on holiday due to high temperatures. In fact, the best choice at the moment is to take a proper holiday to alleviate various worries caused by the off-season.
