Rising Prices Of Dyes Provoke Textile Industry Nerves

Due to the rising cost of dyes, the more than 20 families in Binhai, Lizhu and Lanting Pavilion began to rise in March 1st. Knitting and dyeing enterprises Printing and dyeing processing fees were generally raised by 10%-12%.

"We have received notice of price increase." Yesterday, in Keqiao Jess Zhang, who runs the fabric business in Fortune Tower, has received notice of price increase in several dyeing factories. Jess Zhang's company is mainly knitted fabrics, and has been doing business with many knitting mills in Li Zhu and other places. "The increase in the cost of dyeing will have some pressure on our downstream businesses." Jess Zhang said, however, she could understand the frustration of the dye factory's rise in price. Now the dye cost has gone up badly, the labor cost has gone up again, and the environmental protection pressure has also increased the price of the Dyestuff Factory in order to survive. Although we have the corresponding transformation way, but the cost transformation must also have the price to have the city to realize, cannot blindly increase the price.

It was revealed that Textile and clothing The profits of foreign trade enterprises are generally around 3%, and competition is becoming increasingly fierce. At present, many enterprises in Keqiao focus on foreign markets and win more orders by price advantage. Owners are worried that once the price rises, they will lose more customers.

"The impact of dye price increase on our garment enterprises is lagging behind, but the fabric is the raw material of clothing enterprises, which accounts for more than half of the cost of clothing, and its price fluctuation will directly radiate to our clothing enterprises." Qian Qing, an operator of women's clothing production enterprises, said that the original choice in Qian Qing's clothing business is to see the fabric advantages of rich and cheap products in the textile market. "Clothing enterprises are mostly running small profits, and the price changes of fabrics undoubtedly add a lot of uncertainties to the garment enterprises." Mr. Wang said.

Under the situation of weak demand for garment foreign trade and tight competition in the domestic market, the small profits management is the current survival situation for Keqiao garment enterprises with high dependence on foreign trade. Industry analysts said that because of the small profits, the transformation ability and risk resistance ability of garment enterprises are very fragile. According to statistics, last year, the clothing industry in Keqiao realized 6 billion 439 million yuan in main business revenue, an increase of 11.3%, but the profit was only 215 million yuan, which was basically the same as last year. "Only 3% profit margins and a slight change in the upstream and downstream industries make the clothing industry very sensitive." Insiders say.

"As long as the quality of dyeing is guaranteed, the cost of dye rises is taken for granted." Fu Guoqing, director of Yongsheng industry and Trade Co., Ltd., who is attending the Shanghai international fabric exhibition, is optimistic about the increase in dye charges. Fu Guoqing believes that textile and garment enterprises should digest the pressure of upstream enterprises' rising costs, and only develop more new products. "New products, one to guide the forefront of the market, the two is no price competition." Fu Guoqing disclosed that this year, the company has developed hundreds of new fabrics. At this exhibition, he exhibited the fabrics in autumn 2014 and spring and summer in 2015. One of the acetate fiber fabrics, which cost up to fifty or sixty yuan per metre, is still favored by customers both at home and abroad.
