Printing And Dyeing Industry Is Facing Challenges. Small And Medium-Sized Cotton Textile Enterprises Are Struggling To Survive.

Recently, domestic and foreign market demand is not strong, domestic cotton reserves will be affected, and domestic cotton prices will continue to be vulnerable downward.

Affected by the Greek debt crisis and the progress made in the Iran nuclear negotiations, international oil prices fell sharply. The WTI crude oil price dropped to nearly $50 / barrel from the highest of 60 US dollars per barrel in June. As a direct downstream product, the price of polyester staple fiber further declined in early July.

In addition, the textile entered the traditional off-season, the order reduced, the gauze market continued to be weak, the price continued to fall, and the market confidence was low.

The enterprises suggest that the state should give the textile enterprises the same policy support in terms of bank credit, and the electricity price will directly affect the production cost of the enterprises.

The price of enterprise products is also declining, suggesting that the electricity tariff can also be lowered appropriately.

In the middle of July, China Cotton Association held a survey in Shijiazhuang, Hebei, where most of the small and medium sized cotton textile enterprises were restricted by equipment, technology and capital. It was difficult to produce high value-added and high-end products with high added value. With the unanticipated quality of cotton resources and three silk quality problems, all of these enterprises chose recycled synthetic fiber as raw materials, relying on low cost advantages to ensure market and production stability.

2015 in the first half of the year, under the environment of global warming and recovery, China's printing and dyeing industry is facing many difficulties and pressures. However, the industry has further accelerated the adjustment of industrial structure, and the main economic indicators such as revenues, profits, fixed assets investment and exports of Enterprises above the whole scale have increased, and the growth rate has dropped compared with the first quarter.

Take Zhaoxian County and Jinzhou as an example.

The scale is basically less than 50 thousand spindles, and the products are mainly combed polyester cotton yarn and pure polyester yarn. The average number of branches is about 30 branches. Because the products avoid the competition of high-end products from the dominant enterprises in China, and are different from the pure cotton yarn in India and Pakistan, some small and medium-sized enterprises are shutting down, so that they can maintain normal production. It is difficult to survive in the cracks of the market.

In addition to the clear positioning of products, the fixed target market and the cooperation between upstream and downstream customers, the enterprises in these areas are also trying to reduce their costs. From the workshop, they found that the enterprises did not use air conditioning and other cooling equipment, which reduced the cost of electricity charges. Their secondary equipment was basically second-hand equipment and less investment; in addition, the regeneration of their electricity was used.

The cost of raw materials is lower than the market average of about 2000 yuan / ton, which greatly reduces the production cost.

However, because of low product positioning and small target market, these enterprises will also face the risk of survival of the fittest under tight market demand.

With the advent of the textile off-season, these enterprises need to solve the difficult and difficult sales situation as soon as possible, and the enterprises are very concerned about the development situation in the second half of the year.
