The editor learned that recently many textile companies in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets have changed from the “decadent” past. A textile boss said: They have been extremely busy recently, and customers are rushing for goods every day!
Is this the last wave of market conditions at the end of the year?
The “worst of the year” artificial silk is finally moving!
As we all know, the textile market in 2020 cannot be predicted by the practices of previous years. Under the influence of the epidemic, this year’s textile market has been unsatisfactory. Although 10 The monthly market ushered in a peak season, and the market production and sales were booming. However, the market weakened again in November. After December, under the stimulation of various macroeconomic factors, market orders improved again, especially for artificial silk, which has been underperforming. Products have also shown signs of loosening recently.
After all, in the first half of the year, imitation silk fabrics, which are the golden season of domestic trade sales in the “spring and summer”, have not performed well this year, and many weaving manufacturers’ inventories have been rising. 3 months, 4 months…half a year’s “huge” gray fabric inventory does exist in the market. Manufacturers have no choice but to sell it at low prices to reduce inventory. 75D24 twisted chiffon once fell to the “floor price” of about 2.20 yuan. ”, but even though there are many, traders have been afraid to sell such products for fear of getting them into their own hands.
But recently, under the support of rising raw materials and optimism about the market next year, traders This type of mainstream products in the first half of next year has also begun to throw out an “olive branch”.
Mr. Yang, who produces imitation silk at Bai Laitai loom——
“The factory has been very busy recently, and the market orders are basically The shipment has been completed, and I have been busy with the production of orders recently. I can walk almost 40,000 meters every day. The inventory in the factory is declining. The custom-made customers are in a hurry, so we can only give them priority for production.”
Mr. Wang, who has 300 looms and produces imitation silk fabrics——
“I have been busy producing orders recently, and customers have been urging me because they are afraid of There are too many uncertainties after New Year’s Day, so I want to get the products out beforehand.”
According to market participants, manufacturers with more orders on hand recently have experienced this wave of market conditions. It can last until the 20th of next month, and most of them last until the beginning of the month. In addition, the improvement in the market has also driven up the price of gray fabrics.
It is understood that recently, the price of imitation silk series gray fabrics with a gram weight of about 100 has increased by 0.05-0.10 yuan/meter, and the price of imitation silk series gray fabrics with a gram weight of 200 has increased by about 0.15 yuan/meter. “However, the price increase also depends on the product itself. Some products have high inventory, so the price has not increased, and they may even be sold cheaper.”
Not only gray fabric manufacturers, but also several recent simulation Silk printing and dyeing manufacturers also experienced a long-awaited “liquidation” phenomenon. According to a simulated silk trader, he also admitted that the delivery time of the dyeing factory has been extended again recently, resulting in slow shipment of orders and repeated reminders from customers. “The dyeing factory has gone crazy recently. It received a duplicate order with a 20-day delivery time, which is almost the end of the year. The customer is urging me to do it every day,” he said.
Although this long-lost sense of happiness makes the textile boss feel comfortable when ordering, the lag in the dyeing factory also makes them rush between the dyeing factory and the sales department every day. During the period, I felt anxious.
Order sales exceeded expectations, and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets remained high when they started
In addition to imitation silk, the trading volume in Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets has also improved compared with the previous period. As the weather turns colder, winter fabrics are receiving replenishment orders, and orders for spring and summer next year are also being placed.
Shengze area: Cold-proof clothing and elastic fabrics have performed well recently, and there are many downstream stocking operations;
Changshu area: As the weather turns colder, orders for velvet fabrics are also higher than in the previous period. With a slight improvement, manufacturers’ production and sales can be flat;
Changxing area: The sales volume of brushed cloth is still good. Some textile bosses said that they have received better orders recently, and the orders on hand can last for 2 months. Around the time, the market conditions performed relatively well, which also dissuaded some manufacturers from lowering their intention to start operations.
Haining area: The orders for leather base fabrics, ammonia super products and other products in the Haining warp knitting market were better than at the beginning of the month, but compared with the sales in the previous two months, they were still slightly inferior;
It is reported that the recent start-up rates in the water-jet, warp knitting and circular knitting machine markets have been relatively stable. Among them, the water-jet start-up rate in Wujiang has remained at about 80%, and that in Changxing has been around 90%; in Changshu and Haining, the warp knitting start-up rate has been around 90%. The overall operating rate of the market is around 83%, which is higher than the previous period, and the recent operating rate is higher than the same period last year.
Compared with the same period last year, the start of construction this year is generally higher, especially in the warp knitting market. After last year’s survival of the fittest, some companies in the market have withdrawn, and the market supply and demand relationship is better. In addition, The continuous replenishment of velvet and home textile fabrics by upstream and downstream this year has stimulated the enthusiasm of manufacturers for production. The operating rate of warp knitting manufacturers is generally around 90%, which is 20% higher than the same period last year.
The editor has something to say
Of course, here is what the editor has to say The said good market conditions cannot be compared with the same period in previous years, and the market has not fully blossomed. Many textile companies do not have many orders on hand, and they also say that orders are tepid. After all, the big “BOSS” of the epidemic is still there. Even if end market demand is to recover, it will take time.
The recent higher-than-expected order performance is largely due to the support of raw material costs and the prediction that the market will hit bottom, causing downstream traders to We have increased procurement efforts for some products. Judging from current market feedback, this wave of market orders is expected to last until the end of the month, and the positive orders will also be released at the beginning of the month. The textile market will eventually return to calm.
