Consumption Is Not &Nbsp; The Textile Industry Is Shrinking All Over The World.

The shrinking is not just the cocoon silk industry, but the whole.

"A customer has just returned to Europe from our order, and has proposed to cut hundreds of pieces per product.

"In some varieties, overseas orders have dropped by more than 70%."

Cao Xiaojian, deputy general manager of Jiangsu sainty group, said that compared with last year, orders for textiles in overseas markets, especially in the European and American markets, declined sharply, and the amount of single orders sharply declined.

The situation of "not making money" is prevalent in all aspects of the textile industry.

Cotton prices are high and prices are low.

According to the national cotton monitoring system survey data, in November 5th, the average price of the national cotton price B index representing the 328 grade cotton price in the mainland was 28805 yuan / ton, up 1849 yuan / ton, or 6.9%, compared with the previous week.

Cotton prices change on Monday.

The pressure of rising prices has been continuously pmitted to downstream industries such as cotton yarn, cotton fabric, cotton products, clothing and home textiles, resulting in the overall price rise of downstream terminal products, but the price increase has been decreasing step by step, and the operational risk of textile industry has increased.

For the new agricultural development, cotton planting and processing enterprises in the upper reaches of the industry, a substantial increase in cotton prices is conducive to the improvement of gross margin and growth of the company's performance.

However, some people have pointed out that the rise in cotton prices is accompanied by a decline in production. Meanwhile, the price of seed cotton has also risen substantially, and the impact of cost pressures on profits can not be underestimated.

For cotton spinning enterprises engaged in textile raw material processing, the cost of pferring cotton yarn and cotton cloth has been pferred to some cost pressures. The boom has improved and business profits have increased. However, the high price of cotton also makes it impossible for enterprises to determine the cost of production, and is afraid to sign long-term orders because they are afraid of taking risks.

Some large textile enterprises rely on the stock of pre hoarding to cope with the pressure of rising prices, while some small and medium-sized textile enterprises can only choose to cut production or stop production in the face of high cotton prices, resulting in the price of cotton without market.

For the downstream textile and garment enterprises, the continuous high cost makes many enterprises unable to digest completely and have to raise the wholesale price of products. The increase in retail prices will certainly reduce some of the terminal purchasing power.

China Cotton Association official said that although cotton price rise has factors such as supply and demand fundamentals, but it is not enough to support cotton prices so skyrocketing, speculative speculation also accounts for a large proportion, resulting in confusion in order to buy, cotton quality decline, industry is difficult to sustainable development.

Cocoon silk export orders drop sharply

Under the influence of the world economic recession, the silk industry, which is mainly exported from foreign trade, has been hit by orders, and over 30% of the export reduction has become the norm of the industry.

The high cost makes the old silk weaving industry difficult to pform and upgrade.

"This year's export situation is very optimistic, our company's export volume at least reduced by about 30%."

Wu Jianhua, vice president of Wujiang Silk Association and general manager of Dingsheng silk company, told reporters.

People in charge of Anhui Jing Kowloon silk and Hangzhou green winter silk enterprises all told reporters that the export volume dropped by more than 30% this year.

Shengze Town, Wujiang, is known as one of the four largest Chinese silk cities. It has sunrise and is covered by the world. It is a barometer and weathervane of Chinese silk.

However, according to the first half year survey data of Wujiang Silk Association, by the end of June this year, there were only 14 Wujiang silk weaving factories in 2011.

Since the outbreak of the international financial crisis in 2008, Wujiang's silk weaving industry has been greatly affected by export trade, and its output has plummeted.

The silk fabrics and pure silk fabrics of the whole city decreased from 21 million 390 thousand meters and 17 million 650 thousand meters in 2008 to 7 million 160 thousand meters and 5 million 660 thousand meters in the first half of 2011, a drop of nearly 70%.

Especially since the second half of 2010, due to the high price of raw silk materials, the rising cost of labor and expenses, and the lack of sales, some silk weaving enterprises with insufficient financial strength had to stop production and shut down their businesses, and more enterprises had to switch to other businesses in order to survive and develop.

The main goal of enterprises is to maximize profits. When the rate of return on investment is low and profits are no longer available, it is an inevitable choice to adjust the way of thinking and the direction of products. The shrinking of silk industry is also an indisputable fact.

Chemical fiber profits return to reason

In the late 80s of last century, mulberry silk production was affected by many factors and atrophied. A number of enterprises engaged in cocoon silk production and some cotton enterprises began to pform, so that the chemical fiber industry could "develop quickly" and developed rapidly, especially the polyester polyester industry entered the "golden period". The industry, production capacity and output increased rapidly, and the equipment technology level was improved obviously, and the product structure was optimized.

Zheng Junlin, Secretary General of China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, said in a public occasion that in 2010, China's chemical fiber production was 30 million 900 thousand tons, an increase of 85.6% over 2005, with an average annual growth of 13.1%.

Polyester polyester production increased from 12 million 710 thousand tons to 25 million 130 thousand tons, an increase of 97.7%, an average annual growth of 14.6%. The growth rate was 1.5 percentage points higher than that of the chemical fiber industry, accounting for 81.3% of the total output of chemical fiber.

Behind the rapid development of industry is often blindness.

Since the beginning of this year, the profit margins of the chemical fiber industry have been rapidly squeezed due to the fluctuations in raw material prices, rising labor costs, tight energy supply, narrow financing channels and increased financial costs.

Some analysts believe that in 2010, PTA, polyester fiber and other production enterprises surged in profits, mainly because domestic cotton prices skyrocketed, chemical fiber prices were relatively cheap, the use of cotton in garment enterprises decreased, and the use of chemical fiber increased, resulting in an alternative effect; cotton prices have dropped from a high of 30 thousand yuan per ton to 28 thousand yuan per ton this year, coupled with the rise in oil prices, and the age of profiteering of chemical fiber enterprises is about to end.

In addition, this is a new industry with insufficient historical heritage. The existing national standards and industry standards are almost blank.

Product classification standard, product quality standard, energy conservation and emission reduction standard, water intake quota standard and processing trade consumption standard can not guide the production of the industry. The lagging behind of the standard system construction will hinder the further development of the industry.

Industry experts said that due to the current macroeconomic situation is not optimistic, polyester industry "fool can earn money era" has ceased to exist, the industry will usher in a new round of shuffling, price profits will gradually return to reason.

Export price increase of silk products

Contrary to the export situation of silk garments in China, the export of silk products in China is characterized by a decrease in price.

From 1 to September this year, the export volume of China's real silk products was 2 billion 672 million US dollars, up 14.17% over the same period last year.

Among them, the export of silk was 536 million US dollars, an increase of 19.45% compared with the same period last year; the export of silk and silk fabrics was US $780 million, an increase of 11.27% compared with the same period last year; the export of silk products was US $1 billion 356 million, up 13.88% over the same period last year.

In addition to the 9.74% decline in exports to India, exports to the United States, Italy, Japan and China's Hongkong have increased, representing an increase of 7.15%, 19.99%, 17% and 9.49% respectively.

The top five export markets are: the United States, India, Italy, Japan and China's Hongkong, which occupy 57.05% of China's total exports to the world.

The United States remains the first importer of silk goods in China, accounting for 19.86% of the market share.

The top five provinces of China's silk exports are Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shanghai and Sichuan.

The total export of the five provinces and cities accounts for 83.48% of the total export of real silk goods in China, of which only 38.75% of the Zhejiang province is the first of all provinces and municipalities.

In addition to the slight decrease in Shanghai's exports, the exports of the other four provinces all increased: Zhejiang's exports increased by 7.63% compared to the same period last year, to 1 billion 36 million US dollars; Guangdong's year-on-year growth of 38.41%, to 383 million US dollars; Jiangsu's year-on-year growth of 9.65%, to 381 million US dollars; Sichuan grew 16.59%, to 195 million U. S. dollars.

Although the major export commodities showed an upward trend in the export volume, the export volume of silk and silk fabrics decreased compared with the same period last year.

From 1 to September this year, the total number of silk exports in China totaled 12 thousand and 800 tons, down 9.6% from the same period last year. The average unit price reached 41.95 US dollars / kg, up 32.06%; the export volume of silk and silk fabrics was 158 million meters, down 20.74% compared to the same period last year; the average price was 4.92 dollars / meter, or 40.38%.

The sharp rise in unit price or the main reason for the decline in export volume.
