Market Cotton Prices Weak Textile Enterprises Are "Hard To Laugh At."

< p > compared with the "crazy cotton" of over 30 thousand yuan per ton in the previous two years, cotton prices have dropped sharply in recent years.

According to professional institutions analysis, domestic cotton prices show a weak pattern, the contract price of each month closed at 19400 yuan / ton.

Take 17 days as an example, the price of domestic cotton has dropped slightly, and the quotation of China's main port of imported cotton has also dropped slightly. Most varieties have dropped 0.25 cents, while c/a cotton in India, Brazil and the United States has dropped 0.5 cents.

< p > cotton price is weak, < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > textile < /a > enterprises are hard to say optimistic.

"At present, the price difference between domestic and foreign cotton is still relatively large, and cotton prices are seriously hung upside down as a major problem for textile enterprises."

Fujian textile < a target= "_blank" href= "http://www.91se91.com/" > clothing < /a > export base chamber of Commerce Secretary General Chen Cangsong gave the reporter an account: Generally speaking, cotton raw materials account for more than 70% of the cost of cotton textiles.

The production of 1 tons of cotton yarn requires at least 1.1 tons of cotton, and the cost of raw materials is about 21 thousand yuan, while the price of one ton of cotton yarn is 26 thousand yuan, which is 7000 yuan in terms of labor, energy, pportation and finance. This means that cotton textile enterprises will lose 2000 yuan for producing 1 tons of cotton yarn per ton.

"P >" as a commodity, the rise and fall of international cotton prices have limited impact on domestic enterprises.

This is mainly restricted by the domestic policy regulation and control quota system.

The main raw materials for Quanzhou textile enterprises are mainly cotton reserves.

The head of a textile enterprise in Quanzhou Development Zone said that the foreign enterprises that placed orders were usually priced at the international cotton price. However, the cotton yarn they produced was produced by domestic cotton with higher cost, and profits were squeezed.

The internal and external upside down of < p > a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > cotton price < /a > makes some a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/" > textile enterprise < /a > look at the chemical fiber extracted from petroleum and petrochemical products as a substitute.

Zhang Qingshan, general manager of Shishi clothing enterprise, said that there are few pure cotton products on the market now. Even though the Fujian style casual wear with high cotton content has about 20% of the chemical fiber composition.

Most of the fabrics are made of synthetic fabrics, nylon, polyester and other synthetic fabrics, which are extracted from petroleum and petrochemical products.

Since April this year, the economic growth of major economies in the world has slowed down significantly, and the market risk appetite has deteriorated sharply, dragging down international oil prices.

Affected by this, the price of chemical fiber has also been weak in recent years.

< /p >

< p > however, this is not necessarily good news for enterprises.

"We always feel that the decline in raw material prices is good for businesses.

Little does it know that it is more dangerous.

Some industry insiders say that if an enterprise is overstock when the price of raw materials has just dropped, the enterprise will not benefit from it if future prices continue to fall all the way.

Zhang Jiayi, general manager of Jinjiang Dafa technology group, analyzed: "if the enterprise receives the large list and long list, but does not control the use of raw materials, then it is better to not pick up.

Because if we use high priced raw material stock, and the price of raw materials on the market is down, terminal prices can not be raised, and profits will be reduced.

< /p >

< p > "from the lower reaches, the export situation of textile and clothing has begun to improve in the first quarter of this year, but traditional markets such as Europe and the United States still have not gone out of the trough of market demand, and the export situation of the whole year is still not optimistic."

Chen Cangsong analysis, and from the upstream textile raw material price trend, domestic is mainly cotton reserves, price fluctuations will not be too large, and chemical fiber and other factors such as international crude oil, it shows a big shock situation, it is difficult to directly judge whether it is up or down. Therefore, enterprises should adopt the right amount principle when purchasing raw materials, especially in the off-season.

< /p >

< p > "blindly purchasing at the bottom of the bargain. When the inventory is unable to digest and the new orders do not increase, it will be more passive if the capital flow of the enterprise is not smooth."

Chen Cangsong said.

< /p >

< p > besides, there are also insiders who remind enterprises that they should always pay attention to the market < a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > raw material < /a > price quotations, and change the production mode to set the market for production, so as to speed up the production efficiency of production and delivery.

At the same time, the lean production management should be realized, the use and management of raw materials should be well controlled, and the wastage of raw materials should be reduced, so as to save production costs as much as possible.
