Development Trend Of Cashmere Garments And Industry In The World

Cashmere is a rare and special animal fiber in the world. The high-grade raw material of textile industry is known as "fiber diamond" and "soft gold".

It is a layer of fine, thick villi that grows in goat's hair roots to resist cold and is called cashmere.

The colder weather, the more abundant cashmere, the more slender fibers.

Cashmere is used to be called Cashmere in the international market because of the distribution of cashmere to Europe in the history of Kashmir in Asia. China uses its homophonic "Cashmere".

Compared with other fibers, cashmere has the advantages of glossy, natural, soft, pure and gorgeous.

(1) the general situation of the development of the world's cashmere industry. 1. the general situation of production. The main producing countries of the world cashmere are China, Mongolia, Iran, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Turkey and other countries.

China is the largest producer of cashmere in the world, accounting for more than 70% of the world's total output. About 20% of Mongolia's cashmere production is produced, and a few of the cashmere production is in the rest of the world.

Since the important economic value and many uses of cashmere, since 1970s, Australia, New Zealand, Scotland and the United States have begun to develop cashmere industry.

In China, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Tibet, Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia, Shanxi, Hebei, Shaanxi, Shandong and Shandong are the main producing areas of cashmere in China.

Inner Mongolia is the most cashmere producing area with the largest number of cashmere goats and the highest cashmere production in China. It accounts for 1 / 3 of the cashmere output in the world (Table 1), and is known as the "world cashmere look at China and China cashmere Inner Mongolia".

2. quality profile. The value of cashmere is affected by three factors: fineness, length and color.

The requirement of fineness of cashmere for the international textile industry department is the best with the diameter of 13 to 16 m. In the international market, the cashmere price with a diameter of 16 m and the length of cashmere is the highest, and the unit price of the cashmere decreases with the diameter.

The color is divided into white velvet, cashmere and purple velvet, and white flannel is the most precious, accounting for only 30% of the world's cashmere output.

The cashmere produced in Mongolia is mainly green and purple, about 5% of white cashmere, 70% of green velvet and purple velvet. The length is 35 to 37mm, and fineness is between 13~15 and M.

In western Afghanistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and other Central Asian countries, the color of the cashmere is mainly dark color, with fineness, short length and poor handle.

The cashmere fiber diameter of Afghanistan is 16.5 to 17.5 m; the diameter of Iran cashmere is 17.5 to 19 m, which can only be used to spin woollen cashmere products. The diameter of Russian cashmere cashmere fiber is 19.5 m; the diameter of Turkey cashmere fiber is 16~17 M: the diameter of Australian wild cashmere fiber is 16.5 to 16.9 m.

China's cashmere is not only fineness, fiber diameter is 13~15 m, and the proportion of white cashmere is relatively high, about 40%.

In the northern part of China, including Xinjiang, Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Liaoning and other places, it mainly produces white hair less than 34 ~ 42mm. It is the main raw material of knitted garments, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei and so on.

The 22 to 32mm plush fabric is suitable for making woolen woven products.

Tibet's purple velvet, with fineness of 14.8 micron m and length 34mm, has a good handle, pure color and unique style, and is welcomed by the market.

The individual cashmere yield of Liaoning White Cashmere Goat is relatively high.

Inner Mongolia Alashan cashmere goats, arbass cashmere goats, Erlang Shan cashmere goats, and Chifeng Sai Han cashmere goats are known as "white middle white" (length 36mm or above, 15.3 micron m below), and the quality of white cashmere produced by Tibet's northern Tibet self cashmere goat is of better quality.

Two. The trade status of the cashmere industry in the world. Britain, Italy, Japan, the United States and other countries are the largest importers of cashmere in the world.

According to statistics of China Customs Statistics Yearbook, in 2006, Italy imported 2254t, imported 408t from Britain, Japan 345t, and the United States was affected by slow economic growth, and imported raw velvet decreased compared with previous years.

For the cashmere exporting countries, Mongolia exported the original velvet 927t in 2006, the export amount was 22 million 224 thousand US dollars: Kazakhstan exported 121389t, the export amount was US $1 million 514 thousand, Belgium exported 121318t, the export amount was 2 million 264 thousand US dollars: Turkey exported 121119t, Iran export 115t.

From the global perspective.

In recent years, the cashmere industry has undergone great changes.

First of all, the large scale production enterprises in the United States gradually withdraw; secondly, many of the cashmere industries in Japan are shrinking.

Because of its high cost, Japanese textile industry has moved factories to China.

In 1989, Japan imported No Plush 1000t and imported less than 400t in 2002.

The traditional European cashmere production country, such as Britain (once the world's largest cashmere processing country, imports 60% per cent of world trade volume annually) and Italy and other countries.

As labor costs are high, textile enterprises have begun to shift to China.
