“Sunrise million silk, clothing the world”, Feng Menglong’s “awaken” in the Ming Dynasty, Shengze silk city prosperity had been mentioned.
Today, known as the “silk China known as the” first town of Shengze has been formed from silk and chemical fiber spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing, fabric processing to the clothing industry chain. In Shengze, on both sides of the road all kinds of textile, printing and dyeing, weaving factory has become a beautiful landscape.
The reporter learned that Shengze textile industry cluster advantages, to Hengli Group, Shenghong group, Wujiang Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd. Jiangsu Xinmin textile Polytron Technologies Inc and a number of large enterprises as a leader, formed in the textile enterprises cluster Chinese textile industry influential. The textile industry is also radiation to the surrounding areas, the formation of a Shengze as the center, including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, many neighboring towns of the textile industry base. Shengze is not only the largest textile industry base in China, but also the distribution center of chemical fiber fabrics.
During the visit, the reporter found that this year, Shengze textile industry autumn and winter market is particularly long. Some manufacturers believe that the printing and dyeing industry in Shaoxing is mainly affected by the impact of environmental protection, the elimination of backward production capacity, part of the order transferred to Shengze, making this season particularly busy. There are some manufacturers believe that this year the market is a good domestic market orders, like imitation memory, surrounded by these shells become a hot market products. Near the end of the year, the four sides of the plant dyeing fabric market is still hot.
“Shengze is the distribution center of chemical fiber fabrics, many enterprises are based on order production, covering the export market, the domestic market is relatively strong seasonal, relatively stable export market orders.” Wu Xiaofen introduction, this year, PTA several large devices did not restart, the new device is not a large number of polyester production, polyester fundamentals better than in previous years. In addition, this year, the right to speak of polyester manufacturers more concentrated than ever, the ability to control the price has been greatly improved.
In addition, one of the more important reason is the downstream product demand. In terms of Shengze, in October this year, in November, dyeing plant business has been busy, fabric orders arrived at a high operating rate, the demand for polyester filament continued to improve.
From the beginning of September, the chemical fiber industry has been better.” Sheng Hong group, the relevant person in charge told reporters that this year, the downstream consumption, sports and leisure brand sales is very gratifying, a few years ago, the stock has accelerated digestion, terminal brand sales of 5% – 10% growth. At the same time, foreign consumption also showed a synchronous growth, directly driving the domestic textile industry to enhance the consumption capacity.
Why polyester terminal will focus on this stage of explosive growth in the above person in charge, on the one hand, the rise in raw materials is unexpected, the domestic commodity prices are up, freight is also up. In such an environment of rising costs, the second and third quarters of the order ahead of the release. In addition, in recent years, the polyester market oversupply situation, after the elimination of competition, the supply and demand balance.
Manufacturers optimistic about the market outlook
In this research, polyester production enterprises in Yangtze River Delta region responsible for investors generally cautious optimism, this year the production and operation situation improved obviously, very price emboldened than the foot. It is worth noting that, despite the current polyester slice, staple fiber, filament production and operation stability, but the segments appear to be some differentiation. Such as staple fiber enterprises recently by price of cotton textile enterprises, and reduce the weak order approach of the Spring Festival and other factors, relatively few orders. Due to the current inventory level of filament is very low, some oversold phenomenon, in the hands of the order is acceptable, production operating profit level is good.
The production of weaving enterprises still have profit, the boot load is higher than in previous years, the polyester polyester raw material stocking was sufficient, but worried that foreign trade orders can withstand the pressure of raw materials prices rose sharply after the spring festival. Printing and dyeing enterprises due to close to the terminal, in the vicinity of the Spring Festival holiday time node, the current orders can be produced about a week, the new orders are also better.
The reporter learned that, as the current industry downstream section, polyester bottle sheet, filament and staple fiber problems, namely the price of crude oil rose from rising costs of the contradiction between the pressure and the terminal demand conduction. Although since September, polyester prices strong performance, but this is due to rising costs, inadequate supply of funds and other factors. With the arrival of the consumer off-season, polyester oversupply problem will gradually appear, and the part of the terminal consumer products is not ideal, the price downward conduction is smooth, the polyester industry is the main concern.” Huang Liqiang said.
It is worth mentioning that the investigation feedback results, this year PTA and MEG raw material prices sharply higher, polyester enterprises will not only cost conversion, but also its supply and demand pattern to improve the situation get excess profits.
“Since the G20 Summit on the release order, after the first few years of the elimination of backward production capacity after industry is also in good condition on the costs of supply and demand, improve the ability of terminal weaving enterprises, coupled with its own profit can, can also absorb some of the rising costs of.” Wang Guangqian said that in the face of the current round of raw material prices, the end of the relatively smooth transfer of corporate costs.
At present, slice, fiber and filament no big problem, but the downstream textile enterprises early raw material stocking was sufficient, years ago may demand overdraft, demand may be slowed sharply late.
According to a relevant person in charge of the enterprise, the current inventory of raw materials and hand orders are arranged for a month or so, the short term sales pressure is not. “The order to hoard goods, not because of the rise of raw materials to increase the inventory of raw materials.” The official believes that the current price of FDY to see, now do still have a profit to sell, but the problem is that the new order is not ideal. Foreign customers will not because of China’s raw material prices rose and additional orders, is currently in a stalemate state.
Due to the depreciation of the exchange rate of other currencies in addition to the U.S. dollar is greater than the RMB, that is, non US currencies relative to the devaluation of the RMB, the corresponding increase in the cost of imports. Domestic chemical fiber raw materials and other accessories prices rose sharply after the Spring Festival, the cost of foreign trade orders or transfer capacity will be weak. In addition, the stability of employees and recruitment problems make weaving enterprises some concern.
For the stability of staff concerns, printing and dyeing factory also has. Shengze, a printing and dyeing factory staff in exchange with reporters admitted that the company is currently earning a processing fee business model, but faced with increasing pressure on environmental costs, staff stability is also uncertain factors.
