Dyeing And Finishing Industry: Ice And Fire

In 2011, it can be said to be a year of rising word.

According to Tian Liming, Secretary General of the China Dyestuff Industry Association, the dye production in China reached 320 thousand tons in 1~5 months, an increase of 7.4% over the same period last year, and sales revenue reached 9 billion 860 million yuan, an increase of 10.2% over the same period last year.

The output of organic pigments reached 57 thousand tons, representing an increase of 10.4% over the same period last year.

The dye and pigment industry achieved an industrial gross output value of 10 billion 80 million yuan, an increase of 7.2% over the same period last year, and sales revenue was 9 billion 560 million yuan, an increase of 10.2% over the same period last year. The realization of profits and taxes was 1 billion 20 million yuan, representing an increase of 8.8% over the same period last year.

It can be seen that the dyeing and finishing industry is running smoothly, and all indicators have also increased slightly.

Although the overall operation of the industry is stable, the industry's internal performance is uneven.

In particular, the key large enterprises are better than the SMEs in their overall operation. After entering May, the market operation of dye and dye enterprises has dropped significantly, due to multiple factors such as domestic demand growth, inflation pressure increasing, investment reduction and domestic demand pulling down.

From the data point of view, the output of dyestuff and pigment in 2011 showed a slow growth trend. The output of some large enterprises maintained a positive growth, but the output of small and medium-sized enterprises declined sharply, and the export volume of dyestuff and pigment increased year by year.

As a major dye province in Zhejiang, in 2011 1~10 months, Zhejiang produced 454426 tons of dyes, an increase of 2% over the previous year, and 455297 tons of dye sales, an increase of 4% over the previous year, of which 55809 tons of export dyes increased 2% over the same period last year.

Exports accounted for 12% of the total sales, and dye production and marketing rate was 100%.

It is estimated that the total output of dyestuffs will reach 750 thousand tons this year.

Significant changes in the international market pattern

Enterprises in developed countries have gradually withdrawn from basic dyestuff synthesis business, while dye industry in developing countries such as China and India has accelerated development due to the pfer of dye manufacturing technology and the rapid development of the domestic textile industry.

This is a year of marked changes in the international dyestuff market.

Since 2011, new changes have taken place in the international market competition pattern.

At present, the developed country enterprises are gradually withdrawing from the basic dyestuff synthesis business, forming a business model that mainly relies on imported dyestuff products from China and India to produce high value-added dye products, or direct purchase of dyestuffs and OEM sales of OEM manufacturers in both countries.

On the other hand, the old brand dyestuff enterprises, represented by de Vesta, actively carry out the readjustment of products and technology, and focus on the fields of high-end dyes, functional dyes and textile printing and dyeing auxiliaries, the development of new products of environmental protection dyes and new printing and dyeing technologies, and the competition of various global locations and advanced consulting services as the company's competition.

Imbalance between supply and demand

Today, China's dye production accounts for about 60% of the world's total output. However, the supply and demand relationship of the dye market has changed a lot, and the total market volume is too large.

This is a year of prominent contradiction between supply and demand.

After years of development, China's dye production accounts for about 60% of the world's total dye production.

At present, there are about 600 kinds of dyestuffs in China, covering all kinds of dyestuffs, which can meet the domestic market demand of more than 90%.

Disperse dyes, reactive dyes and sulphur dyes are the major dyes in China.

Since 2011, the output and export volume of dyestuffs in China has slowed down. In the first half of this year, the growth rate of dyestuff export decreased significantly, even negative growth, due to factors such as raw materials, labor costs and other factors such as the rising price of production factors and the adjustment of the RMB exchange rate.

According to customs statistics, the total exports of dyes in China were 109 thousand tons in 1~5 months, down 4% from the same period last year. A rare negative growth occurred, especially in May, with a negative growth rate of 16% over the same period.

After entering the May, domestic market demand declined, inflation pressure increased, investment reduced and domestic demand pulled down.

But the output of dye is still growing. The supply of this year's market is ample, and it is more than enough to meet the market supply.

At present, the supply and demand relationship of the dye market has changed a lot, and the total market volume is too large. On the whole, there is a state of oversupply and imbalance between supply and demand.

In a word, supply is abundant, demand is limited, and the contradiction between supply and demand is very conspicuous.

This characteristic is very outstanding in the year of rabbit, and will have a great impact on the healthy development of domestic dyestuff industry and market.

The supervision on the implementation of environmental regulations is increasing, and the introduction of a series of measures has accelerated the elimination of backward production capacity.

This is the two year of economic development.

Since 2011, China's dyestuff has intensified its efforts to save energy and reduce emissions, and has actively developed a recycling economy and low carbon economy.

After entering the 2011, the state has more stringent requirements for environmental protection, and the supervision on the implementation of environmental regulations is also increasing. Correspondingly, the environmental protection requirements of dyestuff industry are also constantly improving, and the supervision of "three wastes" emission in dye production process is intensified.

The severe situation has pushed forward the two economic development of dyestuff industry.

For example, Shanghai anuoqi textile chemical company, facing the enormous pressure of low carbon economy, circular economy and energy saving and emission reduction, based on the protection of ecological environment and resource conservation, has continuously increased environmental protection investment in the expansion of two dyestuffs factories in Yantai and Dongying, in order to promote cleaner production and maintain the ecological environment.

At the same time, some enterprises have enhanced the initiative of developing the two economies. For example, Zheng Hongyu, chairman of Penglai Xinguang Pigment Co., Ltd., said that the "three wastes" and the treatment of emissions and the pressure from international conventions have caused certain constraints on the future development of China's dyestuff and pigment industry.

In order to reduce the "three wastes" emissions, the industry needs to develop and promote cleaner production technology. The long-term development of the dyestuff industry must be based on the protection of the ecological environment and resource conservation.

To this end, Penglai Xinguang Pigments Co., Ltd. is actively preparing funds for relocation and entering the chemical industrial park. In building new factories, they will focus on developing two economies, producing green pigments, and protecting resources and environment.

In order to dye the future of the pigment industry, the long-term development of the dyestuff industry must be based on cleaner production, vigorously protect the ecological environment and carry out resource conservation.

According to the actual development of China's dyestuff industry, we should speed up the elimination of backward production capacity, strictly work progress, announce the list of enterprises with backward production capacity as soon as possible, stop low-level redundant construction, establish and improve the exit mechanism of heavy polluting enterprises, and eliminate production processes that seriously pollute the environment, destroy ecological environment, and waste resources and energy.

We must strictly implement policies, accelerate the improvement of the definition standards for eliminating backward production capacity, conscientiously implement laws and regulations concerning environmental protection, energy consumption, safety, quality, land and other aspects, strengthen supervision and inspection, and resolutely prevent backward production capacity pfer.

Further promote the development of green, low carbon, clean and safe dyestuff industry.

High cost confusion

Due to inflation expectations, the price of fuel and chemical raw materials has risen, and the tax exemption policy of some varieties has been lifted, so that the cost of some dye varieties has increased by about 5%.

This is a challenging year.

With the continuous high price of global basic raw materials, the cost of domestic environmental protection, energy, human resources and logistics is increasing.

The tension of coal, electricity, oil and pportation has not been alleviated for a long time, especially for coal and natural gas prices, and domestic oil prices continue to rise.

At present, due to inflation expectations, the price of fuel and chemical raw materials has risen, which has become an important factor to increase the cost of dyes.

At the same time, some varieties of tax exemption policy was abolished, so that the cost of some dye varieties rose by 5% or so. Since this year, the cost pressure of enterprises has been greatly increased, and sales expenses have increased substantially, which greatly reduced the profit margins of enterprises.

In short, the price of raw materials increased considerably in 2010, such as aniline products, the average price last year was 8000 yuan / ton, and the average price this year exceeded 11000 yuan / ton.

Other costs such as freight and labor are also increasing. Rising raw materials and energy prices have added to the worsening profit margins of the dyestuff industry.

It is understood that Shanghai and Shandong several large dye enterprises have such a dilemma, are experiencing the same embarrassment in the process of growth.

Under the influence of the environment such as inflation, raw materials have gone up sharply, and the cost has been continuously pushed up. Due to the rise in prices of raw materials and other factors, many enterprises are in a state of loss.

Higher costs make it difficult for enterprises to digest and become the pain of dye and pigment enterprises.

Reducing the cost through management and increasing profit is the killer of dyestuff enterprises to meet challenges in 2011.

In 2011, many dyestuffs enterprises improved their management level in a timely manner, strengthened internal control, had large scale dyestuffs enterprises, and exerting large-scale procurement advantages to reduce costs.
