CCTV Pays Attention To The Rising Cost Of Textile Industry Again, Facing The Survival Crisis, Where Will These Spinning Enterprises Go?

In late August,

In a limited company, rows of textile machines lie idle in factories.

No machine can be heard, nor can a worker be seen. But a month ago, it was still a lively production scene.

Li Xianghua, deputy general manager of the company, said that the factory had just stopped in July because the population is relatively small, the labor force is relatively small, and the employment problem is becoming more and more serious.

Jiangsu Taicang Li Tai Textile Factory Co., Ltd. was founded in the Qing Dynasty, Guangxu period, has more than 100 years of history, has won numerous awards, has a glorious past.

In recent years, wages and raw materials prices have been rising, plus Southeast Asia.

The impact has made the industry more and more competitive.

At the same time, the product category of Li Tai still stays at the low-end cotton yarn, the added value of products is getting lower and lower, and the efficiency of enterprises is also declining.

Under these circumstances,

We have to gradually reduce the scale of production.

In May this year, 30 old looms were eliminated and two weaving shops were merged.

In July this year, 50 thousand spindles of the workshop were also closed.

"Only with industrial pformation and upgrading can we continue our brand, otherwise we will only shrink."

Walking in the workshop that has been discontinued, recalled the scene of the heyday of development, Li Xianghua, who had worked in Li Tai textile mill for more than 30 years, was very sad.

In an interview, he said that when Li Tai textile business was the most prosperous, its products were exported to Europe, Southeast Asia and Africa, and exported more than 10 million US dollars each year.

Today, the sales revenue of the company has been decreasing year by year, and the number of workers has dropped from three thousand or four thousand to less than 1000.

At its height, we need more than 130 thousand spindles, now about more than 70 thousand spindles, and more than 100 looms.

In employment,

Under the pressure of multiple factors such as environmental protection and international market competition, Li Tai's 100 year enterprise is facing unprecedented survival crisis.

To 4 thousand kilometers away from the layout

The change of Taicang Li Tai textile mill is a microcosm of the development dilemma of some textile enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta in recent years.

Statistics show that in the past,

The industry once occupied the 1/3 of Taicang's industrial economy, and its products were exported to Japan, Korea, Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa and other countries and regions.

Textile and chemical fiber accounts for less than 10% of the local industrial economy.

Many enterprises or shutting down or relocation, textile and chemical fiber enterprises remaining, pformation and upgrading is imminent.

Where is the way out for traditional textile enterprises? Standing at the crossroads of life and death, since 2015, Jiangsu Taicang Li Tai textile mill Limited has begun to layout along the "one belt and one road" line, and has invested in spinning projects in Xinjiang and Uzbekistan, and nearly 1 million 500 thousand spindles have been put into production.

"To Xinjiang, to Uzbekistan to develop, first because it is the cotton producing area, two is the national policy encouragement, three is raw material resources and employment is relatively Jiangsu advantage."

Li Xianghua said so.

From Taicang to 4000 kilometers away from Xinjiang and Uzbekistan, the establishment of factories is not a simple industrial pfer. The new factory area has achieved intelligent manufacturing, while the old factory area is also looking for new development orientation.

"We are not simply pferring this backward equipment to Xinjiang or Uzbekistan. We are putting new equipment into the world, and products are also developing and innovating. The brand continues the lion dance in 1905, mass production in Xinjiang and Uzbekistan, and Taicang backbone training and product development and proofing."

In addition, Li Xianghua also said that the old factory area should be pformed into a history museum.

Between the diversion and pformation, the brand of Li Tai has renewed its vitality.

At present, in Taicang's old production workshop, there are 72 employees per ten thousand spindles, while Xinjiang's production base employs intelligent new equipment, and only 8 employees are required for every ten thousand spindles.

The product range is also extended from traditional cotton yarn to higher value-added knitting yarn market, dyed fabric market, home textile market, medical material and personal care market.

In the past, the annual output value of Li Tai exceeded one billion yuan, but its profit margin was less than 5%. With the new production base being put into operation, it is estimated that by the end of 2018, the annual sales revenue of the company will exceed 10 billion yuan, and the net profit margin will be raised to 10%.

Li Xianghua said: "the textile and garment industry is not a sunset industry at all, but also a sunrise industry.

Clothing and shelter, clothing or the main.

There are new fabrics and new clothes for customers to choose from.

Although the textile industry is a traditional industry, with the pformation and upgrading, new bright spots and new products can be made.

Grit your teeth on the machine.

Less than 3 kilometres away from Li Tai textile mill, Taicang Yofen Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd. is undergoing technological pformation. The robot which has been installed and debugged just a month ago is being replaced manually for automatic dropping.

Guo Yu, manager of power department of yfeng Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd., Taicang, Jiangsu, said: "recruitment is becoming more and more difficult now, and the demands of workers are getting higher and higher. Enterprises are facing a passive situation, which is difficult to stabilize production.

As long as the machine is in place, the machine will work normally, and it will not be affected by holidays. "

The difficulty of enterprise development is becoming more and more serious.

"People are not easy to find, especially during the Spring Festival. They are more difficult to find. Wages and social security are increasing every year, and the annual increase is about 10%."

The cost of employment is higher and higher, but the efficiency and quality have not been improved.

"There are a lot of filaments, which cause fluctuations in product quality, and customer complaints will be very passive, and there will be hundreds of thousands of claims for damages."

In addition, the price war from the industry has also put the enterprises in a dilemma of development.

To this end, enterprises upgrade equipment.

In early 2018, Guo Yu installed an automatic winding device on two production lines, which cost about 3000000 yuan.

This money is a great burden for the traditional chemical fiber company, but Guo Yu calculates the bill. If all the production lines are installed, they can save about 20 workers, and the annual cost savings will be about 1 million 600 thousand yuan per person's salary, calculated at 80 thousand yuan per person per year.

It not only solves the problem of difficult employment, but also greatly improves the quality of products.

"The overall effect is good. At present, two lines have been put into operation, and 12 lines will be completed this year."

Guo Yu said that in the past, whenever the selling season came, the workers in the external inspection and packing workshop were busy from morning till night, but they could not keep up with the speed of delivery every day.

1 months ago, the new inspection and packaging equipment was put into use and the situation was completely changed.

"Manual packaging, now in accordance with the standards of skilled workers, 1 hours to pack 4 bags or so, but automatic packaging line 1 hours can pack 24 bags, the efficiency is greatly improved, product packaging image, packaging quality are significantly improved."

This set of external inspection and packaging equipment is invested at about 8000000 yuan at a time, and the annual labor saving and avoiding losses are nearly 2 million yuan.

With the quicker pace of technological pformation and machine replacement, the profitability of enterprises will also become stronger and stronger.

"Machine replacement will definitely enhance competitiveness, improve product quality and reduce labor cost."

And these costs can be counted.

CCTV's rising costs have not yet calculated the production costs of raw materials, such as PTA, which is skyrocketing prices, and the price of dye that is rising sharply.

Zhejiang, Limited by Share Ltd, a dye producing company, said that with the advent of the peak season in the second half of the year, the price of dye is expected to rise further.

"We expect a large number of disqualified SMEs to be shut down in the future, and the supply and demand pattern of dyestuff and intermediates industry will be optimized continuously, and the concentration will further move closer to leading enterprises."

In its semi annual report, Kyrgyzstan clearly pointed out that the company will follow the rise of raw materials and raise the price of products.

In recent years, the price of major chemical raw materials used in dye production has been greatly influenced by many factors such as adjustment of national industrial policies, changes in market supply and demand, and changes in oil prices.

The cost of raw materials is relatively high. The price fluctuation of raw materials has a significant impact on the company's operating results, and will affect the sustainability and stability of the company's profitability.

The company will actively respond to price fluctuations of raw materials, timely resolution and pmission to the downstream.

"The second round of environmental protection supervision was launched in August 20th, and ended in November 11, 2018, with 6 rounds. The third round of environmental inspection will start in November 12th and end in April 28, 2019, with 11 rounds.

The Ministry of ecology will arrange more than 200 inspection teams for the "2+26" city in general, and more than 90 inspection teams in 11 cities in Fenwei plain. The Yangtze River Delta region will mainly arrange special operations teams to conduct irregular inspections, and environmental protection is still showing high pressure.

China financial network related analysts said that environmental protection continued high pressure, dye prices or rise again.

"We have recently investigated some of the parks in Jiangsu Province, and the enterprises in the chemical industry park have been completely shut down or most of them have been shut down for rectification. The dye intermediates industry has been greatly affected. At present, it is still in a sensitive period, and it is difficult to resume production. We believe that the price of products will be greatly increased before and after the inventory is gradually depleted."
