Sales Of German Clothing And Leather Machinery And Expectations For Next Year

German clothing Machinery, Leatherwear Machinery and Spin The sales volume of cleaning equipment in 2012 (after deducting the price increase factor) was 3% lower than that in 2011. It is predicted that sales in the industry will increase by 4% in 2013.

In November 16th, at the VDMA German garment and Leather Technology Association Conference held in Berlin, Germany, the chairman of the association, general manager of PMF and FORTUNA, TiloUllmer, said that in 2012, the German clothing and leather technology association was a smooth transition year, and hoped that sales in 2013 would increase.

The German clothing and Leather Technology Association, which is under the German machinery and equipment manufacturing association VDMA, includes sewing and clothing machinery and manufacturing. shoes In 2011, the total value of tanning technology, washing and textile cleaning equipment and processing equipment of textile products amounted to 510 million euros. According to the German clothing and Leather Technology Association report, industry orders fell by 23% in September 2012 compared with the same period last year. Judging from the 1~9 months of this year, the short-term impact was small, and the number of orders fell by 9%. According to sub industry classification data, sewing and clothing machinery decreased by 58% in September, down 33% in 1~9 months. Shoemaking and tannery equipment fell 12% in September, down 29% in 1~9 months. Washing and textile cleaning equipment increased by 16% in September, up 12% in 1~9 months.

VDMA ElgarStraub, President of the German clothing and Leather Technology Association, believes that the garment and leather technology industry in 2012 has been unable to achieve the desired value. The negative investment sentiment of users, especially in the clothing and footwear industry, is more obvious than expected in the world. Only the production of industrial textiles in the United States and the whole sphere has not been affected. In addition, uncertain China's economic imbalances and the euro crisis have increased the spread of negative emotions among producers and consumers. According to conservative estimates, orders and sales will pick up in 2013, but the premise is that the global economic situation must rebound.

Straub president also pointed out that China's industrial restructuring and market demand for rapid response time will lead to a re layout of garment production and production sites will be more and more close to the end users. For example, the rise of industries in Eastern Europe, flexible production methods, conservation of resources and high efficiency requirements are conducive to German manufacturers of high technology level. Expectations for the future of the market have been reflected in the JIAM and the international shoe and leather technology and Equipment Exhibition (SIMAC) held in Bologna, Osaka. German sewing and garment machinery manufacturers also hope that the clothing processing and flexible materials technology exhibition (Texprocess) will be held in Frankfurt in June 2013. Although 2012 industry In a depressed state, Texprocess exhibition will strongly promote the development of the industry.
