“Our factory has started to take turns to rest. Now the number of gray fabrics entering the warehouse has been significantly reduced, and production is basically done at night.” A salesperson from a dyeing factory said.
Other dyeing factories also said that due to insufficient continuity of orders, some dyeing factories have seen a significant shrinkage in their incoming warehouses. It has become common for small dyeing factories to stop cylinders. Some dyeing factories have even adopted price-for-volume methods in order to attract large orders. …
Printing and dyeing factories start taking turns to rest
Judging from the situation in dyeing factories, the textile market has begun to decline. The weaving market also shows a downward trend. The demand for domestic and foreign trade has not changed much. Domestic trade brands and market orders mostly maintain the urgent need to stock up, with mainly small orders of winter fabrics being issued. In terms of foreign trade, there are only sporadic small orders for some brands, and there are few large goods.
It can be seen from the Shengze Index of the Ministry of Commerce that due to the weak market conditions, factories lacked enthusiasm for production, and the load of weaving factories dropped slightly to 74.2%. In terms of gray cloth inventory, market transactions were average, so the factory’s gray cloth inventory rose slightly to 35.1 days.
The current operating rate of printing and dyeing samples in Shengze is 72.8%, which is the same as last week. Compared with September, there is a downward trend.
There are two main reasons for the recent rotation of dyeing factories. On the one hand, the amount of gray fabric entering the warehouse has decreased, which is not enough to maintain the production of two shifts. On the other hand, due to the influence of production policies, dyeing factories in some areas can only operate half of the machines.
Dyeing costs drop again
As the downstream of weaving enterprises, dyeing factories will inevitably have no work to do and stop production and take holidays when orders are reduced. Dyeing factories, which have been in a relationship of “supply exceeds demand” for a long time, have been saying that the price of dyeing fees is strong. However, since the epidemic, when the market has gradually weakened, they have to lower their heads.
The increase in dyeing fees that occurred several times a year in the past has disappeared. Instead, the price of dyeing fees is negotiable and negotiable, and there is still room for price reduction.
“Obviously there is no discount on the price, but if the quantity is large, you can negotiate the price privately and get a better discount.”
“The dyeing fee will be two to three cents cheaper if the quantity is large.”
“There must be a discount on the dyeing fee. It mainly depends on the size of the order. If the quantity is large, it is normal to give away a cent or two.”
…
Many traders have reported that dyeing fee prices have loosened. Not only are dyeing costs giving way, but today’s dyeing factory delivery times are also surprising. As long as there is an order being made, the delivery can basically be controlled within a week or so. The faster ones can be delivered in about 5 days, and some can even be shipped in 2-3 days.
In September, with the blessing of the peak season, the early start-up rate performed well and began to rise. However, it is difficult to maintain a good momentum for a long time, and a weak trend has already appeared at the end of September.
The dyeing fee and delivery time of the dyeing factory at this time can be said to be very attractive. It would be a blessing if there are orders at this time. But in fact, not everyone has the courage to take orders at this time.
With the arrival of November, large-scale stocking for the e-commerce season will begin, and dyeing factories are also expected to usher in a wave of market conditions. But nowadays, there is basically no large-volume ordering mode, and all orders are placed in small quantities. In addition, now that spot supermarkets are everywhere and the purchasing channels have increased, it is difficult for dyeing factories to place large-volume orders again.
