Polyester Industry, Large Scale Production, Price Protection Is Coming.

Recently, Sinopec raised the price of half light chips in the month to 11800 yuan / ton, up 500 yuan / ton before.

And there is further market rumors that Sinopec will continue to raise the price by 500 yuan / ton.

If this information is true, the main slicing system of domestic chips is such a large price raising action, which undoubtedly reflects the helpless fact of the current polyester chip market. Under the pressure of cost, the slicing enterprises are already overburdened.

At this point, polyester raw material PTA in all the way up the voice of the song to the 9600 yuan / ton position.

If the price of polyester chips is equivalent to the PTA9850 yuan / ton and MEG9550 yuan / ton settlement price in July, the cost of semi optical chips will be close to 12300 yuan / ton.

At present, spot trading is more difficult to break through 11800 yuan / ton.

In the current market situation, the gap between the 500 yuan is hard to narrow.

As early as the second half of last year, the market crash after the MEG price rose has already seen the embarrassing position of chips in the polyester industry chain.

In the recession of textile industry, the market price gap between sliced spinning filament and direct spinning filament has decreased from original 400~500 yuan / ton to 200 yuan / ton, and the living space of slice spinning is decreasing.

This makes a part of sliced spinning enterprises open up new paths and pass on the differentiation field. The popular PTT fiber in Shengze is a typical example.

This undoubtedly reduced the market demand of conventional slicing.

On the other hand, as the profit margins of polyester production are larger than that of chips, direct spinning enterprises will inevitably focus on polyester production under the pressure of huge cost pressure and reduce the production of chips in polyester plant.

Some other sliced enterprises, whose production is too large, are also equipped with silk thread for the equipment when conditions permit.

If you go to the West Village, you will turn the large glossy slicing production plant into a bright short fiber production plant. After the Zhejiang Xiangsheng big bright chip device is equipped with POY spinning silk thread, this year Zhejiang Kang Xin short fiber device is equipped with POY spinning silk thread, while Shanghai Hengyi, Jiangsu DESAY and Jiangsu golden snow have the idea of blending the silk thread on the existing cutting production device.

Although the appearance of this situation alleviated the pressure of market supply increased due to the decrease of demand, it also reflected the "passive victim" status of polyester chips in polyester industry chain nowadays.

As far as the current situation is concerned, it is the only way for slicing enterprises to follow the PTA price increase under the pressure of cost. However, the way to survive must be supported by the downstream, otherwise it will fall into a dead corner which can not turn around.

Today, there is a price free market situation, which indicates the approaching of this dead angle, and also indicates that a large area of limited production and insurance prices will come soon.
