1 Rice Cloth Earned 8 Cents: Zhejiang Shaoxing Textile Printing And Dyeing Industry Confusion And Hope

How much can 1 rice cloth earn? It's called Asia's largest.

According to the figures provided by the Shaoxing county government, nearly 200 printing and dyeing enterprises in the county produced 15 billion 600 million meters of dyed cloth last year, with a profit of 1 billion 311 million yuan, with an average of 8 cents per rice cloth.

The profits of the 8 pennies hurt the government and enterprises in Shaoxing county.

The 8 cent brings confusion to this "city built on cloth" and brings impetus and hope to change the way of development.

In the profit slightly higher than the average level of industry in Shaoxing County, Qian Qing town, Yong Tong

Then, how much is the cost of 1 metre cloth? In Yong Tong company, the cost of electricity production is 1 yuan per meter, 0.066 yuan for electricity, 0.142 yuan for steam, 0.062 yuan for coal, 0.03 yuan for sewage treatment, 0.37 yuan for dyeing and finishing materials, 0.022 yuan for machinery and materials, 0.074 yuan for net cost, 0.112 yuan for manual wage, and 0.187 yuan for other expenses.

This bill shows that: in order to get 0.1 yuan profit, Yong Tong company needs 1 yuan in cost.

Shaoxing county's printing and dyeing industry mostly adopts tradition.

According to the environmental protection department, while consuming water, traditional printing and dyeing also need to discharge the same amount of COD with high concentration of more than 1000 mg per litre.

The sewage treatment cost of printing and dyeing 1 meter cloth is 3 cents, equivalent to 1/3 of the 8 cent profit, and the sewage treatment cost of 15 billion 600 million meter cloth is as high as 470 million yuan.

This is only the cost of reducing the COD content in the waste water from 1000 mg per litre to 100 mg per liter. In fact, the treated COD content is 100 mg / liter of water and is still a waste water.

Even if the 8 cent profits, there must be endless price war threats.

How can we increase the added value? Zhang Chuanxing, chairman of wing Tong company, has counted dozens of economic accounts in his mind.

Three years ago, the 70 year old man began to set foot in digital printing.

Wing Tong now has two factories: the traditional printing and dyeing factory and the digital printing factory.

"Digital printing has low energy consumption and high added value."

Zhang Chuanxing said, "unlike traditional printing and dyeing, digital printing is a unit of measurement per square meter. Last year, the company's digital printing output was 540 thousand square meters, achieving a net profit of 5 million 400 thousand yuan, and the profit of digital printing per square meter was 10 yuan."

He calculated the cost account of 1 square meters of digital calico, and the total cost was 14.98 yuan.

Less than 15 yuan per square metre of digital printing, you can get a net profit of 10 yuan.

More importantly, modern digital printing consumes less than 1/1000 of traditional printing and dyeing, and in the production process, these waste water can basically be recycled, which is truly zero emission.

The output of digital printing accounts for only 1/10 of the total output of the company, and its output value reaches 30%.

There are only 4 such digital printing enterprises in Shaoxing county.

Experts believe that modern digital printing will completely replace traditional printing and dyeing.

But from the two accounts of wing Tong company, it shows the hope of Shaoxing textile industry.

In Shaoxing County, the energy consumption and emission intensity are 1.9 times and 3 times the average level of the province.

Zhejiang will complete the closure of 6 high polluting and high emission industries by the end of September this year, including the printing and dyeing industry.

Shaoxing county decided to eliminate the traditional printing and dyeing capacity of 710 million meters by mid September.

"Energy conservation and emission reduction must be resolute. Printing and dyeing industry can not be lost. Transformation of development mode is a way for Huashan."

County magistrate Sun Yunyao said.

In order to eliminate the production capacity of 710 million meter cloth, Shaoxing county has implemented the elimination of illegal, backward and excess capacity in the printing and dyeing industry. It has taken 600 sets of illegal production capacity involving 40 printing and dyeing enterprises to take measures such as cutting off power supply, cutting off water pipes, dismantling steam pipes, removing cylinder heads and sealing seals and so on.

Sun Zhongfu, director of Shaoxing economic and Trade Bureau, said that according to the county's goal, the total number of printing and dyeing enterprises will be reduced to 100 to 120, and the output of printing and dyeing fabrics will be reduced to 10 billion meters to 12 billion meters, and the benefits will be more than doubled.

Shaoxing County textile printing and dyeing production accounts for 1/3 of the country, which is called the "mother's industry" by the local people.

The elimination of backward production capacity, the introduction of advanced technology and the pformation of development mode have led Shaoxing county to see the hope of "mother industry" again.
