At the 2012 national denim industry annual conference held in Shishi, Fujian, China

Zhu Beina, President of the association, analyzed the development of cotton textile industry.

Zhu Beina introduced the main factors that perplex the development of the industry, the main problems existing in the development of the industry, and put forward suggestions to deal with them, at the same time, encourage enterprises to strengthen their confidence and tide over the current difficulties.

Wang Keli, Deputy Secretary General of China Cotton Textile Industry Association, announced the export situation of denim industry in 2011 and 2012. In 2011, denim exports were 614 million meters, down 6.27% compared with the same period last year, of which the export of pure cotton denim was 280 million meters, down 28.4% compared to the same period last year. In 2012, 1~6 exported 300 million meters, and the same ratio decreased 8.09%, of which 127 million tons of pure cotton denim were exported, 19.88% percent year-on-year, and cotton blended.

387 million meters, an increase of 3.03% over the same period.

Wang Keli said that it is imperative to enhance the competitiveness of the denim industry.

The US Cotton Corp Jerry Lin analyzed the US economic situation and retail trend, the American cowboy retail market and the Chinese cowboy retail market.

He said that according to the European market research firm, the total sales volume of cowboys in 2012 reached 600 billion yuan, an increase of 3 percentage points over 2011.

Compared with 5 years ago, the share of Chinese cowboy sales increased from 6% to 10%, while the US market share dropped from 18% to 16%.

Overall, jeans account for almost 5%~8%.

Sales market share.

The market share of jeans is 6% in developed countries, including the United States, Japan, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom.

The proportion of traditional clothing in India accounts for 14%, which indirectly leads to a lower market share of jeans.

He Xiaosi, a China cotton textile information network, made a detailed analysis of the domestic denim yarn and denim market, and expounded the main characteristics of the domestic raw material market, the export market of gauze, the situation of denim yarn, the industry influence factors and the trend of the future market.

He concluded that since 2011, the market has already returned to the fundamentals of supply and demand. In 2012, the mentality of the buyers and the relevant policy leading factors of the country have rebounded in the market or in stages, but the magnitude will not be great. In the era of high cotton prices, the textile export advantage is weakened, and the import growth is increasing. The industry's whole restoration market will continue until next year.

Zhang Zhijun, general manager of Guangzhou Wei Jia anda Mstar Technology Ltd, said at the meeting that the denim industry must follow the principle of environmental protection if it wants to keep on developing.

In order to find a road of sustainable development, the denim industry can not do without eight words: environmental protection, innovation, culture and fashion.

Environmental protection is to produce environmentally friendly products with environmentally friendly raw materials and environmentally friendly production under the premise of protecting the environment.

Innovation is to create new materials, new technologies and new processes to produce new products.

Thus creating new economic growth point.

At the same time, he said that the four technologies and chemicals pioneered in the cowboy industry in China are not desizing, reducing mercerizing, energy saving, emission reduction and green and low carbon.

And these products and processes have been recognized by all parties.

He said that the status quo of the cowboy industry is for weaving, sizing up warp yarn, and then desizing when finishing, essentially in order to turn grain into waste water for weaving.

The functional finishing of cowboy warp is to replace the food slurry with polymer chemicals. In the process of finishing, no desizing or mercerizing is needed. Only proper soap washing can give the product better mercerizing effect, and make the product have a certain coating style, thereby changing the shortcomings of poor permeability of the coated fabric, and greatly reducing the consumption of water resources and sewage discharge.

In his concluding remarks, he also said that in the future, the white cloth can not be desizing.

If this possibility is true, it will undoubtedly bring far-reaching influence to the entire textile industry.

Chen Jianxin, executive vice president of Fujian Textile Industry Association, Ouyang Wen, chairman of Haixing Mstar Technology Ltd, and more than 150 Representatives from governments and enterprises from 14 provinces and cities all over the country attended the meeting.
