China'S Polyester Filament Production Capacity Exceeded 40 Million Tons In 2019.

Schedule for the production of polyester filament in China in 2020

In 2019, the production capacity of polyester filament increased by 2 million 540 thousand tons, which was 560 thousand tons less than that of 3 million 100 thousand tons in 2018, and the growth rate dropped by 2.1 percentage points, of which 2 million 390 thousand tons of melt direct spinning and 150 thousand tons of chips were sliced. The total capacity of our country reached 40 million 510 thousand tons / year, and it successfully broke through the 40 million ton mark. During the year, the new capacity is still mainly concentrated in large polyester factories, and mainly POY, including 1 million 200 thousand tons of Tong Kun group, 560 thousand tons of new Feng Ming group, 250 thousand tons of Heng Yi (Yi Peng Jiaxing), 200 thousand tons of Fujian longitude and latitude, and 80 thousand tons of Lixin chemical fiber. Among them, 100 thousand tons of Hengke and 100 thousand tons of Weifang Huabao will be put into operation by the end of the year, and 250 thousand tons of Heng Yi (Yi Kai Haining) is expected to be postponed to 2020.

In the coming 2020, the supply of polyester filament will continue to expand in China in the future. The planned capacity will increase by 3 million 290 thousand tons, of which 2 million 600 thousand tons of melt spinning and 690 thousand tons of chips (including industrial yarn) will increase by 8.1%, representing a 1.4 percentage point increase over 2019. From the perspective of new production capacity, the distribution in 2020 is relatively uniform, and the latter half of the year is relatively dispersed. From the perspective of the new production capacity structure, it is still concentrated in the forefront of the scale of production capacity. In recent years, polyester filament and even the whole polyester industry have gradually formed an upward trend in the development of the industrial chain. Taking advantage of the refining industry and supporting the expansion of downstream polyester has become one of the main trends in the polyester filament industry. Therefore, the new production capacity of polyester filament in 2020 is still concentrated in the top five enterprises of the scale of production capacity, such as Tong Kun, new Feng Ming, Heng Yi and Sheng Hong. From the perspective of new production capacity matching products, differentiated products with relatively high added value such as ultra-fine, intelligent, full extinction and other dominant products occupy the leading position. At the same time, because of the surge in recent years, the POY is the main factor.
