Prominent Contradictions In The Textile And Cotton Industry In 2015

The main contradiction of cotton textile enterprises in China is the disparity of cotton prices, labor cost and environmental protection.

In the first quarter of 2015, the average cotton price difference at home and abroad averaged 3300 yuan / ton, narrowing to 2400 yuan / ton in 4 and May. At present, domestic and foreign cotton prices have been gradually reduced. The first quarter of the country imported 468 thousand tons of cotton, 590 thousand tons of imported cotton yarn, and cotton yarn imports exceeded cotton imports for the first time.

At present, the import of cotton yarn presents a continuous growth trend, which seriously affects the domestic cotton spinning enterprises.

The national development and Reform Commission (NDRC) plan for the 2015 national cotton reserves has been confirmed.

The price of this scheme is significantly higher than that of domestic cotton spot price, which is also higher than that of imported cotton 400-500 yuan / ton, and the prediction of cotton throwing and storing situation is not optimistic. It is not ruled out that the base price will be lowered in 7-9 months.

And cotton import quotas in a certain proportion of "bundled" and other measures.

(two) labor cost

In recent years, the cost of production cost elements of China's textile industry has been continuously raised, and the per capita wages have increased at an annual rate of over 10%. The wage level is much higher than that of the developing neighbouring countries, and the labor cost advantage of the industry in international competition is basically gone.

The competitiveness of the international market has obviously weakened.

In the first half of 2015, the EU's imports increased from 29.6%-53.4% to India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Vietnam and Indonesia. The growth rate of imports from Vietnam, Indonesia, Bangladesh and Kampuchea was between 18%-29%. Japan's imports from Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand increased by 23%-49.

At the same time, China's exports declined sharply.

The clothing industry has pferred orders to Southeast Asia, and some famous international brands have also invested and built factories in Southeast Asia.

come

The original 85% of the products were made in China. At present, the production ratio outside China has been raised to 50%.

After 3 years, the Muji scheme reduced the number of factories in China from 229 to 86, and the proportion of purchases from China decreased by 60% from 60%.

(three) environmental pressure

The textile and dyeing industry is a key monitoring industry of national environmental protection. The rapid increase of investment and operation cost in energy saving and environmental protection has increased the operating cost of enterprises.

In 2014, the concentration of COD in effluent should not be higher than 100mg/L, and must be lower than 70mg/L. Ammonia nitrogen should not be higher than 30mg/L, and must be lower than 15mg/L.

From July 1, 2015, the effluent should be reduced to COD50mg/L and ammonia nitrogen 5mg/L. All enterprises that fail to meet the emission requirements will be closed down.

Air pollution is getting more and more attention. The state has issued relevant policy requirements. By the end of 2015, 10 tons of boilers will be banned. By the end of 2017, less than 35 tons of boilers will be eliminated. It is hoped that the government and enterprises will resolve the problem ahead of schedule, otherwise the whole industry will be in danger of shutting down.

(four) funds

In 2015, the monetary policy of the country was still on the basis of stability. The financial support of bank credit to textile industry was significantly reduced, and textile enterprises were classified as credit restricted industries, so they were deeply troubled by "financing difficulties" and "financing expensive".

Major banks continue to tighten lending to the textile industry, resulting in increasing financing costs and increasing difficulty in loans. The lending rates of major banks are all 30%-50%.

Shijiazhuang Changshan group in the first half of this year, a bank credit scale tightened 80 million yuan.

At the same time, the comprehensive rate of loans is relatively high. Most industry enterprises loan interest rate is nearly 20%.

Even so, the loans of major state-owned banks are very difficult. In order to solve the problem of capital turnover, enterprises have to borrow high interest loans from small loan companies and pawnshops. The textile industry is a small profit industry, and the financial cost increases, which further runs through the only profit of enterprises.
