Analysis Of Reasons For Rising Price Of Spandex Market In Off Season

< p > summary of the first half of the chemical fiber market, and < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > polyester < /a > nylon, viscose and other fiber varieties market weakness is different, spandex after a slight increase in the first quarter, the two quarter of the market price center of gravity moved up again.

As of June 30th this year, 20D spandex price range at 58000 yuan / ton ~60000 yuan / ton, 30D spandex price range in 50000 yuan / ton ~55000 yuan / ton, 40D spandex price range in 47000 yuan / ton ~54000 yuan / ton, than the first quarter of the market price level rose 1.72%~9.54%.

< /p >

< p >, moreover, compared with the price of domestic spandex market in the same period last year, the increase is also very obvious.

In the same period last year, the price of 20D was stable at 58000 yuan / ton ~60000 yuan / ton, 30D sales price ranged from 46000 yuan / ton ~51000 yuan / ton, and 40D sales price range stabilized at 40000 yuan / ton ~45000 yuan / ton.

On some varieties, the price of spandex fiber increased by about 5000 yuan / ton this year.

< /p >

< p > a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > spandex industry < /a > traditional peak season in the annual 3~5 and 9~11 months.

In July this year, the market is not bad in the off-season, and there are many factors.

< /p >

What is the main reason for the rise of < p > strong > slow season? < /strong > < /p >

< p > raw material BDO has oversupply trend, market trend leads to demand growth, and the operation of the industry is good and other factors play a leading role.

< /p >

< p > raw material BDO has an oversupply trend < /p >

Less than p years ago, 1 of the fine chemicals that were still very popular, 4- butanediol (BDO) is now expanding rapidly under investment drive, and the era of high profits is fading.

As China's PBT, polytetrahydrofuran, PTA, Ding Erzhi, gamma butylene and polyurethane resin and other downstream demand continue to increase, many domestic enterprises to implement BDO expansion plan, new projects sprung up like mushrooms, BDO production capacity has increased rapidly.

< /p >

< p > according to incomplete statistics, there are many new BDO projects in the period from 2012 to 2015, and there will be a lot of projects to be built. After these projects have been put into operation one after another, China's BDO production capacity will reach the highest peak in history.

In these projects, five or six units were put into operation in 2012 ~2013.

In addition, more than 100 tons of BDO projects for at least 5~6 manufacturers will be planned in the next three years.

< /p >

< p > industry pointed out that at present, China's BDO is facing a pattern of overcapacity, and the era of high profits will soon be over.

In particular, the scale of BDO devices currently under construction is increasing.

It is understood that the original single unit of the annual output of 25 thousand tons or 30 thousand tons, and now most of the production capacity doubled, reaching 60 thousand tons, or even reach the scale of 100 thousand tons to 200 thousand tons capacity.

< /p >

< p > it is estimated that by 2015, the total demand for BDO will reach about 800 thousand tons, and the production capacity will exceed 2 million tons at that time. China will become the world's major net exporter from the net importing countries in the past.

In the next few years, China's demand for BDO will continue to grow steadily.

THF/PTMEG is still the focus of consumption.

At present, China's < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/ > spandex industry < /a > has entered a mature period, PTMEG demand growth will be stable, and the growth of THF demand will also slow down.

Therefore, THF's demand for BDO will remain relatively stable.

< /p >

< p > < strong > market trend leads to demand growth < /strong > < /p >

Spandex production in China, consumption in the world, the United States as the representative of North America is the main source of demand for spandex. P

With the vigorous development of downstream textile industry, China's spandex industry has also experienced a period of rapid growth in productivity, rising from 207 thousand tons in 2005 to 520 thousand tons at the end of 2012, with an average annual compound growth rate of 14%.

Industry experts said that with the change of the concept of clothing consumption in China, the domestic spandex market is growing rapidly.

< /p >

< p > spandex fiber has undergone the pformation from "aristocratic fiber" to "civilian fiber", and its application is gradually expanding.

With the help of DuPont "Lycra" brand, spandex fiber has become an essential element of underwear, body building suit, swimsuit and other products.

According to industry experts, spandex content is usually between 18% and 20% in the above fabric processing.

< /p >

< p > statistics show that the proportion of spandex fiber currently used in underwear and tights is close to 30% to 40%, and the proportion of female underwear is estimated to be between 10% and 15%.

< /p >

< p > nowadays, in many countries and regions, 70% to 80% of the underwear fabric has been adopted < a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > elastic fabric < /a >, the proportion of inelastic fabric is low, and "no ammonia and no cloth" is becoming a reality.

< /p >

< p > the current trend of clothing development shows that the elastic inner farm is not only popular among ladies, but also more closely related to men's underwear.

In addition, the addition of spandex to ordinary weft knitted fabrics (especially underwear fabrics) can not only increase elasticity, but also reduce the deformation of garments and improve the appearance and feel of fabrics.

Spandex has been developed to fine denier underwear. If spandex is chosen below 20D, spandex can be more comfortable in underwear forming.

< /p >

The popularity of P > a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > LACE > /a > lace also increased the amount of spandex.

Usually, 70D - 210D spandex is chosen as the basic material for improving fabric elasticity.

< /p >

< p > in particular, spandex is mainly used in the following aspects: nylon, cotton and polyester, mainly with spandex and summer wear and sportswear.

More than 70% of the underwear will be spandex.

< p > < strong > industry is running well < /strong > < /p >

< p > from the supply side, the spandex market has been continuing a relatively tight state. First, the spandex export volume has been maintained at a high level this year, with an average monthly export volume of more than 4000 tons.

1~4 month pure spandex export 17 thousand and 200 tons, export unit price 7050.41 dollars / ton, Spandex Covered Yarn 500 tons, export unit price 5737.92 U.S. dollars / ton.

The spandex spandex and spandex covered yarn are in good import and export status in China.

< /p >

< p > two is due to the timely adjustment of the spandex production enterprises according to actual demand, and the overall inventory keeps a reasonable scope. The phenomenon of pressing goods in previous years is no longer there, and the 40D spandex supply is slightly tight.

With the improvement of supply and demand pattern, spandex will usher in a recovery cycle of about two years.

Some experts pointed out that, from the perspective of demand, the growth of domestic demand and the revival of external demand provided short-term support for the rapid growth of spandex demand.

< /p >

< p > domestic demand, along with the domestic downstream a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > garment industry < /a > inventory level improvement and foreign economic situation improvement, textile industry demand gradually showed signs of warming, driving spandex demand recovery.

< /p >

In terms of external demand, the demand for spandex is mainly in North America. After the first recovery in the US market, the Japanese market will follow closely, or the demand for spandex will bring more than expected pull. P

< /p >

From the perspective of supply, on the one hand, the trend of fine denier products has made structural reduction in the stock capacity of the industry. On the other hand, the peak of the capacity of the spandex industry has passed, and the new capacity in the next two years is only about 30 thousand tons and the capacity increment is only 5%. P

The improvement of supply and demand pattern will make the spandex industry return to the road of growth.

< /p >

< p > < strong > other fibers also entered the business cycle? < /strong > /p >

< p > the raw materials used for each fiber are not the same, and the production cycle is different. The market trend is different.

< /p >

< p > some people think that spandex fiber will enter the prosperity cycle and other fiber market will turn better.

This problem can not be generalized.

From June to July, the trend of all kinds of fibers in our country is analyzed. The raw materials used for each fiber are not the same, the production cycle is different, and the market trend is different.

< /p >

< p > for example, all kinds of chemical fiber products in the second week of July, such as polyester polyester and short market downstream enterprises, the buying atmosphere is still in the doldrums. The manufacturers' quotations are relatively stable. There is no such a large increase in the spandex fiber. Now, the polyester staple fiber 1.4D polyester and short market in East China generally offers a price of 9900 yuan / ton to 10050 yuan / ton (cash out of factory), and the actual paction price will also be lowered.

< /p >

< p > domestic < a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > acrylic fiber short > /a > market spot trading is stable. Downstream enterprises are purchasing raw materials now. Part of acrylic fiber factory has limited supply, acrylic fiber production and marketing trend of large manufacturers is stable, acrylic fiber stock is not high, market trend trend has been consolidated.

The price of acrylic 1.5D (cotton short) is 17850 yuan / ton to 18500 yuan / ton, and the mid length quotation of 3D is 17650 yuan / ton to 18000 yuan / ton.

< /p >

< p > viscose staple fiber market prices compare with spandex fibers are similar, there has been a steady rise in the situation, manufacturers of inventory remain relatively low position, some enterprises are still tense sales situation, the new price execution is also strong.

Viscose staple general trading price in the 13400 yuan / ton ~ 13500 yuan / ton, part of the lower and middle end products are relatively low price in 13300 yuan / ton or so.

The actual price of high-end products is 13600 yuan / ton to 13700 yuan / ton.

< /p >

At the same time, the market performance of viscose filament has not been ideal, and the overall sales situation has not shown signs of improvement in P.

< /p >

< p class= "MsoNormal" style= "margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt" > span lang= "EN-US" lang= "Microsoft"; "3".

What is the market situation of < p > < strong > in the second half of the year? < /strong > < /p >

After P entered the peak season in the second half of the year, downstream demand rose or triggered a new round of high prices.

< /p >

< p > in July, the BDO price of upstream raw materials continued to be weak, and the seller showed a small profit margin. The market price of PTMEG was stable, while the pure MDI price showed a slight downward trend, with a decrease of 100 yuan / ton.

The operation of the spandex fiber manufacturer is still in operation. Some enterprises are still not very high inventories, and there is not much pressure on sales. Most production enterprises have a steady upward trend. Especially after the spandex conference held in Zhuji, Zhejiang, all the spandex manufacturers in the country have unified their product quotations.

< /p >

< p > the market situation of upstream raw materials of spandex will continue to show a small trend of consolidation, while a href= "http://www.91se91.com" > spandex fiber < /a > enterprises are also striving for higher profits under the premise of striving for stability.

The market situation of spandex fiber in July is basically stable, and the downstream business is not ideal.

However, after the fall of the polyurethane market, some heavy sportswear and casual fabrics will be sold well, and the elastic fibers will be widely used by downstream enterprises.

As long as there are signs of obvious improvement in demand, it will definitely lead to a new round of price high price of spandex fiber.
