Shishi Spinning And Weaving Enterprises To Cope With Rising Cotton Prices

This year, cotton Prices continue to skyrocket and continue to record the highest in nearly 10 years. In October 9th, the price of cotton was 22865 yuan / ton, more than 300 yuan / ton on the first day after the national day. Compared with the 18002 yuan / ton in early September, the increase has exceeded 20%. The price of one ton of standard cotton also surged to over 20000 yuan from 8000 yuan in September last year, which has risen 1.5 times in one year. Faced with this "accidental necessity" phenomenon, Shishi, some of the head of the cloth business owners, began to explore new paths to find solutions.

"Cotton prices rose by more than 20% a month." in the face of the rising pressure on cotton prices, it was more difficult for the textile and garment enterprises to be upset by the appreciation of the renminbi. Many enterprises hope to offset the impact of rising costs on enterprises by raising the price of products, but the success of the final increase is very few. But there are also some enterprises that "see a little deeper" and start looking for ways to deal with them in the long run. Hong Ming, chairman of the city fabric Association, thinks that the increase in cotton prices, besides the external factors such as transportation and natural disasters, is still a resource shortage. With the increase of population and the relative reduction of land, the supply of cotton and other resources will surely not keep up with demand. If we want to reduce the pressure in this area, we should actively seek new ways.

From the new type fibre Find the way on the fabric

Driven by this understanding, some backbone cloth enterprises in Shishi have adopted three measures, such as developing other plant fiber fabrics, developing and producing recycled fiber fabrics, and adopting high quality cotton substitutes, and have achieved initial results. Shishi three yuan, Dongpeng cloth company, adjusted the R & D production ideas and market positioning in a timely manner, began to set foot in the development of hemp fiber fabrics in May this year, and the samples have already come out. It is understood that the fiber extracted from crop waste such as hemp and soybean stalk is not only green, but also soft and comfortable after weaving, which can better replace cotton and increase the bargaining space of clothing. Therefore, it is very popular with brand clothing enterprises. Several other cloth enterprises have been focusing on the development and production of recycled fiber fabrics from the long-term development of "avoiding resource reduction".

It is reported that Shishi new batch of new fiber fabrics, recycled fiber fabrics and environmental protection alternative cotton fabrics are now appearing at the Shanghai international fabric exhibition, with their new advantages and good market prospects in front of domestic and foreign merchants.

Developing high-quality cotton in spinning and weaving enterprises Succedaneum

"Cotton has gone up, and cotton cloth costs a few yuan a yard." Faced with the pressure of cotton rising on clothing products, some garment owners of Shishi have to adjust their fabric composition after obtaining customers' agreement, and reduce the proportion of cotton on the materials, and expand the production of polyester and water washing fabrics. However, in order to ensure the quality of clothing, they will not reduce the quality of the accessories, but they will be more selective in the procurement process and choose the more cost-effective surface accessories. In the face of the sharp rise in cotton prices, gage adopted the strategy of developing high-quality "cotton substitute" from the core technology. The company originally produced mercerized cotton T-shirt fabrics and ready-made garments. In the second half of this year, differentiated fiber, viscose fiber, corn fiber and advanced environmentally friendly technology were used to produce "other fiber fabrics". Because of the advanced technology of post printing and finishing, the fabrics produced still achieve the effect and texture of cotton fibers, which effectively evaded the rise of cotton prices.

Bio based fiber fabrics have been listed.

A few days ago, reporters at the Shishi headquarters of Wen Xing group saw that the group was preparing to send a batch of corn fiber fabric to Beijing. It is reported that the market demand of these new fiber fabrics is very large. Coincidentally, Shishi crown Hong Kong's R & D and production of polyester bamboo carbon fiber fabric has also been transferred to mass production. Reporters learned yesterday that the product has been selling well after obtaining the national patent.

The development of low carbon and environmentally friendly plant fiber, with green environmental protection concept reducing consumers' dependence on cotton and cotton cloth, is another way for some of the Shishi enterprises to cope with the substantial increase in cotton prices. Wen Hing Group looks forward to market demand. At the beginning of the year, it adopted the technology of DuPont Co from the United States, and developed and manufactured bio based super soft fabrics with Haitian textile and light industry cooperation. Its corn fiber fabric also won the 2011~2012 (Qiu Dong) China fashion fabric shortcut product.

Adding new components into knitted chemical fiber will change the original properties of polyester and other fabrics, and achieve the effect of green environmental protection and the substitution of cotton fabric. Crown Hong Company has made a successful step in the development of polyester bamboo carbon fiber fabric and jade chemical fiber fabric. According to the chief engineer of the company, polyester bamboo charcoal fiber fabrics add bamboo charcoal ingredients into polyester fibers, making the polyester fabric more environmentally friendly and more comfortable. Today, with the cotton prices rising substantially and the overall cotton resources decreasing, it has a larger market prospect.

Manulife printing and dyeing: improving bargaining power and raising prices of raw materials and accessories

Under the guidance of the association, Shishi Hongli dyeing and Garment Making Co., Ltd. has made a breakthrough in structural adjustment, technological progress, product optimization and capacity transfer, and has effectively responded to the price rise of raw materials and accessories.

Cotton prices have risen sharply this year, reaching the middle and lower reaches of many industrial chains such as cotton yarn, cotton cloth and garments. The company believes that in order to cope with the sustained rise in raw material prices, we must eliminate backward production capacity and establish an advanced printing and dyeing manufacturing base in eastern China with core technology to enhance the bargaining power of products. The original equipment of the company is old and can only be used as a market order. Every time the price of grey cloth rises, customers will lower the cost of dyeing and transfer the pressure of the upstream price increase. Because of the contradiction between supply and demand, the market will have to bend over to protect the output, and ultimately the competition will be weak. The city dyeing and finishing Association will guide its transformation, and enterprises are determined to carry out revolutionary reform and take the road of independent innovation.

The value of nearly 400 thousand yuan of dye vats is sold by weight. Engineers and technicians have worked hard to carry out the research and development of nylon spandex fabric, which is at the forefront of international market technology, for 8 consecutive months, with a negative value of about 1000000 yuan on monthly accounts. Some employees have been unable to quit their jobs and quit their jobs. The pressure from almost all sides has been compressed by the pressure of the whole world. They have turned the enormous pressure into the driving force for innovation. The top grade ammonia fabric has been successfully developed and tested by the laboratory authority of the Fujian light textile product testing center of the General Administration of quality supervision and inspection. All the technical indicators meet or exceed the requirements of international technical standards. The company made every effort to destroy every single source.

Although the transformation process is painful, the joy of success can be finally achieved. The original reduction of about half of the total efficiency has effectively alleviated the shortage of labor. The original water consumption is 70 tons / hour, and the maximum water consumption is only 4 tons / hour. The power consumption of the original equipment is 200 kilowatts, and the current consumption is only 35 kilowatts. The original steam consumption is 1000 kg / h, and now it has dropped to 400 kg / h. The energy conservation and emission reduction effect is very significant. The enterprise has broken through the bottleneck of development, shifted from the single market to the high-end products in the international market, the backward production capacity has been transformed to the advanced production capacity, the added value of the products is high, the bargaining power of the foreign products is high, and the factors of the price rise of raw and auxiliary materials have not constituted any pressure. The company originally needed 13 workers to deal with equipment and eliminated backward production facilities. After adopting advanced equipment, there were only 3 workers now.

Two fabric companies "recycled fiber fabric" unveiled at Shanghai Exhibition

At the current Shanghai international accessories exhibition, Shishi Tai Lung and Dafa two textile companies displayed 8 recycled fiber fabrics. This batch of fabrics made from waste extracted fibers shows the positive action of Shishi enterprises in dealing with the rise of cotton prices and the reduction of resources.

On the one hand, the consumption demand of cotton clothing is increasing. On the other hand, land and cotton planting area are decreasing. The new way to solve this contradiction is to save resources. To achieve this goal, Shishi Tai Lung, Dafa and other cloth companies began to get involved in the production of recycled fiber fabrics and achieved results. The Tai Lung cloth industry adopts advanced process technology to process the collected waste plastic bottles, extract recycled fibers, produce fabrics, and use bamboo charcoal and other special ingredients to process, so that the fabric belonging to the chemical fiber category has a sense of comfort on the handle, so as to achieve a better "cotton substitution" and also to deal with the rise in cotton prices from one aspect. The big publishing industry imported from abroad the waste plastic sliced after special processing. After producing the fibers and weaving them into fabrics, they not only had a sense of comfort close to the cotton cloth, but also buried in the soil for a few months, so that they could achieve the goal of environmental protection and ecological protection.
