Many factors restrict China.

textile industry

Is facing many tests.

"Economic reference daily" reporter recently went to China's textile industry gathering place Wujiang City, Jiangsu province to interview that in the first half of this year, China's textile enterprises internal and external problems gradually highlighted, small and medium-sized textile enterprises and natural fiber textile business situation worsened further.

Chemical fiber enterprise

We are seeking breakout because of comparative advantage.

The Shengze town of Wujiang is a Chinese traditional one.

Now it has become the gathering place of modern textile industry. It has tens of thousands of sets of leading production equipment at home and abroad, and the whole town produces 6 billion meters of textile every year.

But since last year, Shengze has suffered from internal and external troubles.

The latest figures released by the General Administration of Customs show that from 1 to May this year, China's textile and apparel exports totaled US $88 billion 835 million. From the sales amount, there are some signs of shrinkage in the growth of textile and clothing exports.

From January May, the export volume of textiles and clothing was 20 billion 338 million US dollars, an increase of 23.77% over the same period last year, down 9.76 percentage points from the 33.53% growth of the same period last year. The growth rate of textile and clothing also slowed down significantly compared with the first 4 months of this year.

"The appreciation of the renminbi and the reduction of foreign trade orders directly led to the decline in the sales volume of small and medium-sized textile enterprises with low-end textiles as the main products."

Cai Yanhua, Secretary General of Wujiang textile chamber of Commerce, told the economic reference daily that China's textile industry relies heavily on exports. Some enterprises are relatively single products, relatively small in scale, and the proportion of foreign orders to total orders is relatively high. The reduction of foreign trade orders has great impact on these enterprises.

This is "foreign aggression" and "internal worry" is the first to bear the brunt of the rise of raw materials.

"The lowest cotton price has risen from about 12000 yuan / ton to about 34000 yuan / ton, and now it has dropped to about 24000 yuan / ton, and the price is still high. Cotton yarn has risen from 30 thousand yuan per ton to 60 thousand yuan per ton, and the variety is doubled."

Wen Hao, deputy general manager of Jiangsu Hengli Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd. said: "not only the natural fiber is increasing fiercely, but also the cost of chemical fiber materials is rising.

In addition, there is an increase in labor costs. "

According to Cai Yanhua, during the second half of last year to the first half of this year, the labor cost of Wujiang textile enterprises rose by 20%, and the monthly salary of textile workers rose to 3500 yuan to 5800 yuan.

Textile industry sources revealed that under the dual constraints of high cost and declining sales, textile enterprises' profits were further compressed: the average net profit of the industry was around six points in the past. According to the current situation, the profit may be only four points.

"The internal and external troubles, coupled with the tight financing of small and medium-sized enterprises, make the survival of SMEs and natural fiber enterprises worrying, but this is good for chemical fiber and textile industry."

Wen Hao told reporters that contrary to the tension of other textile enterprises' capital chain, it began to start in 2009. At present, the chemical fiber industry generally has high profits without stock.

It is reported that

financial crisis

After the recovery process, loose monetary policy led to a large scale expansion of the downstream industries in the textile industry. However, due to the long construction cycle, the textile and raw materials industry generally lagged behind the downstream in the first half and a half years from the project to the production time. The imbalance between supply and demand led to the high profit and no inventory of the chemical fiber industry, and the capital chain was relatively loose.

In an interview with reporters in Wujiang, reporters learned that, in the background of the overall decline of the domestic textile industry in the first half of this year, the chemical fiber textile industry has obtained a great development which has never been seen before. Cotton yarn has increased sharply last year, resulting in a significant gap between cotton yarn and chemical fiber. The downstream garment factories can not accept such a high price of cotton yarn, forcing the Loom factory to find alternative raw materials.

"In 2008, the price of polyester was about 18000 yuan / ton, and the price of cotton yarn was 15000-16000 yuan / ton. Now the cotton price has risen to 23000-24000 yuan / ton, and the price of polyester still lingers around 18000 yuan / ton. This shows that as raw material, polyester can maintain a stable price."

Wen Hao said that this year, the development trend of Hengli Chemical fiber research market has developed several series of cotton products which are closer to cotton yarn, and have registered the brand.

"Feel that the chemical fiber market has suddenly expanded a lot. Our gross profit margin last year and this year is the largest in recent years, with an average gross margin of around 30%."

Wen Hao said, at present, the market demand direction is to locate porous and ultra-fine special fiber products, that is, the performance is close to natural fiber alternatives. At this point, Hengli Chemical fiber is relatively advanced in domestic research and development, and its R & D fabrics have entered the global supply chain system of N Ike, A didAs, TOYOTA automobile and other brands.

Cai Yanhua, Secretary General of Wujiang textile chamber of Commerce, said that every crisis is an opportunity for the industry. In the long run, the use of synthetic cotton materials will be the trend of the times and the direction of the upgrading of the textile industry.
