Large Gap Between Domestic And Foreign Cotton Prices Textile Enterprises Give Up Domestic Cotton

More than half of Shandong's cotton processing enterprises have stopped working, which means that the flow of domestic cotton to the market will be greatly reduced this year spin Enterprises, where do their raw materials come from? What about the current living conditions of those textile enterprises?

The reporter visited a number of textile enterprises in Shandong and found that their warehouses were stocked with a lot of cotton, and the enterprises were still purchasing according to the normal production rhythm. Upon inquiry, they originally purchased imported cotton.

Zhou Lifeng, deputy general manager of Shandong Ona Textile Technology Co., Ltd., said that fine wool cotton is mainly Australian cotton, and a small part of it is American cotton, which is not used locally

The enterprise told us that at present, the arrival price of imported cotton is only more than 15000 yuan per ton, while the cost price of domestic cotton alone is more than 19800 yuan, and the quality is not as good as imported cotton. At present, the cotton yarn market is very depressed, and the price is always low. Even if they use cheap imported cotton for production, they are almost on the verge of loss, let alone using expensive domestic cotton.

Zhou Lifeng, the deputy general manager of Shandong Ona Textile Technology Co., Ltd., said that there are still varieties that can only be kept flat

Cui Fengjiang, chairman of Shandong Zhongrun Textile Co., Ltd., said that it would be good if we could break even at the current price. There is no profit and many factories are losing

Can buy imported cotton can barely maintain, can not buy imported cotton basic only shut down. Shandong Tianhong Textile is a large second-hand textile equipment dealer. In the warehouse of this enterprise, the reporter saw that 70% or 80% of the new equipment was neatly placed in a room. The person in charge of the enterprise told us that in recent years, especially this year, more and more people came to them to sell equipment, while fewer and fewer people bought equipment.

Liu Guanghou, chairman of Shandong Tianhong Textile Co., Ltd., said that these equipment have been occupied here for almost a year. Will 2009 and 2010 be so long? At that time, these equipment went out within three days of arriving here the first day, and now they have been here for more than a year

At present, the price of domestic veils is completely linked to the international price, but the cost of cotton in other countries is about 15 million per ton, so the high price of domestic cotton is unbearable for many Chinese textile enterprises.

Gao Yong, vice president of China Textile Industry Association, said that such a huge price difference has caused two problems. The first is that our cotton textile enterprises are operating at a loss. At present, most cotton textile enterprises, whether large or small, are losing money in spinning pure cotton yarn, which has led to the closure of some small enterprises, Or about 30% to 50% of the small factories specialized in spinning pure cotton yarn with less than 30000 spindles in some regions have stopped production, so it should be said that the situation is relatively serious.
