Textile Owners Face A Dilemma Choice, Jiangsu And Zhejiang Grey Fabric Manufacturers Face Severe Test

According to the statistics of each cluster area, in the first half of 2020, the cumulative output of chemical fiber filament fabric in Shengze, Xiuzhou, Longhu, Siyang, Pingwang, Qidu, Keqiao, Dafeng and Xiaohai will reach 10.668 billion meters, a year-on-year decrease of 13.17%, and a decrease of 9.45 percentage points compared with the first quarter. In terms of the overall situation of the industry, Siyang showed outstanding performance, especially in the second quarter, with a year-on-year growth of nearly 20% in the first half of the year.

It is understood that the growth of Siyang cluster chemical fiber filament fabric production is due to the continuous production of new factories in recent years, and the products are mainly home textile fabrics, which are less affected by the epidemic. In the post epidemic era, compared with the clothing terminal, home textile terminal shows a certain degree of toughness.

"Black horse" Siyang,

Break into China textile industry matrix

As early as March last year, construction of Hengtian chemical fiber home textile in Suqian Siyang Economic Development Zone started. The distance from the weaving workshop to the texturing workshop of the factory is 2 km. It takes 5 minutes to drive in the factory, which shows the size of the enterprise. This "textile giant" with a total investment of 5 billion yuan is not only jointly invested by China Hengtian Group, the only central enterprise with textile equipment as its core business, in conjunction with Sumida group and Jiangsu Haixin, but also after the completion of the project, the enterprise will be equipped with 600 sets of texturing machines, 30000 sets of water jet looms and dyeing and finishing equipment with corresponding production capacity, and become a polyester spinning machine with 180000 square meters- As a modern textile enterprise with vertical integration workshop of "texturing weaving printing and dyeing" chemical fiber industry, the annual sales volume can reach 45 billion yuan.

This project covers the whole industrial chain of polyester filament, spinning, texturing, weaving, dyeing and finishing, and will promote the construction of downstream industries such as home textile and clothing; the overall output value of the project is large, the industrial chain is complete, the added value is high, and the comprehensive competitive advantage is obvious; after the completion of the project, it will provide strong support for local social undertakings and economic development.

According to the relevant official news, in recent years, Siyang has accelerated the promotion of textile and clothing industry to high-end and backward extension, and constantly complemented and strengthened the industrial chain. It has gathered more than 20 leading enterprises in Hengtian home textile, Shenjiu home textile, Sihai Weiye and other industries, and 57 enterprises above the designated scale. The annual production capacity of polyester spinning is 500000 tons, chemical fiber filament fabrics and printed and dyed fabrics is 2 billion meters, and clothing is 5 A complete industrial chain of "polyester → chip (melt direct spinning) → spinning (spinning) → texturing → weaving → printing and dyeing → home textile / garment finished products" has been initially formed. At present, Siyang in Northern Jiangsu Province has become one of the main positions of water jet loom production capacity transfer in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, among which, Siyang water jet loom is planned to undertake 80000 sets. From the unknown textile depression to the industrial highland, Siyang County has broken into China's textile industry matrix with the posture of "black horse", accounting for more than one fifth of the six major sectors. The textile industry in Northern Jiangsu, which was originally unknown, rose rapidly almost overnight, and the huge textile cluster market began to take shape.

The severe test of Jiangsu and Zhejiang grey fabric manufacturers:

Textile boss faces a dilemma

And to Jiangsu and Zhejiang grey cloth manufacturers, is a severe test! Since this year, affected by the epidemic situation, a large number of textile orders have been delayed and cancelled, which has brought difficulties to the production and operation of textile enterprises. Two years ago, the national environmental protection rectification movement launched, making the transfer of textile industry become a rational choice for enterprises to realize transformation and upgrading and seek breakthrough development. Under this background, a large number of looms have poured into northern Jiangsu, which is low-cost and rich in resources. However, with the passage of time, the production capacity of these enterprises buckled back, and competition brought greater pressure to the current Jiangsu and Zhejiang weaving Market. Affected by the low cost of grey fabric, many local enterprises are forced to join the price war, and they are in a deep loss pit. The more they produce, the more they lose, but the machines stop working, the rent, the depreciation of machines, and the basic living expenses of workers are all expenses. Cloth owners are faced with a dilemma.

Cui, who owns more than 300 looms, said. "The grey fabric price of peripheral looms is lower. For example, in Northern Jiangsu, their 210t polyester taff can reach less than 1 yuan, while our own production costs about 1.2-1.3 yuan / m according to the current raw material price. In the end, most of these grey fabrics also flowed into the local market, which had a great impact on the local market! "

At present, due to the rapid rise of land costs, energy costs, labor costs and the constraints of ecological environment, the textile and clothing industry in southeast coastal areas has stepped up the pace of gradient transfer to the central and western regions. Many textile enterprises are expanding their production capacity in inland areas. Whether inland or coastal areas, the development speed of China's textile industry can not be underestimated, and the competition is also along with the textile industry in the central and western regions The rapid development of textile industry is becoming more and more intense.
