Recently, many printing and dyeing factories in the Pearl River Delta have received orders for autumn and winter fabrics, among which orders for small sweatshirts, real sweatshirts, and rice wool plush are also quite popular. On June 25, a well-known knitting company in Jinhua, Zhejiang issued a price adjustment letter. From that day on, the price of woolen cloth will be increased by 300 yuan per ton. It is reported that this company is a comprehensive production enterprise integrating knitting, printing, and dyeing, specializing in the production of polyester, nylon, warp and weft knitting and other knitted fabrics.

Expected preference in the second half of the year, dyeing fees may rise
Customs statistics show that from January to May this year, the country’s textile and apparel exports were US$112.69 billion, a year-on-year increase of 17.3%, of which textile exports were US$56.08 billion, an increase of 16.1% compared with the same period in 2019.
Some people in the industry believe that there should be a big climax when the domestic sales market recovers in August. Some people in the industry jokingly call “stocking up.” You can drive Land Rover in July and August.” Next, the textile industry may usher in a new climax. Judging from the operating rate of printing and dyeing plants, this year’s operating rate is higher than last year, and is even not much different from the year before. What’s more important is that the printing and dyeing factories in the local area are still restricting production, so the current printing and dyeing operation rate is under the environmental protection production limit. In other words, if there are no restrictions on production, the operating rate may be higher. If this is the case in the off-season, then the peak season in September and October will perform even better.
The recent increase in woolen gray fabrics is due to the booming business and constant cost pressure, so manufacturers will increase the price of gray fabrics. Similarly, if water-jet and air-jet orders are booming in the second half of the year and printing and dyeing factories are overcrowded in production, additional expenses such as cost overruns and expediting are inevitable, and there is a high possibility that regular dyeing fees will be raised across the board. After all, prices don’t rise once or twice during the peak season.
Editor’s Note
Therefore, the editor believes that as the number of orders received by printing and dyeing factories increases, the trend of rising dyeing fees will become more obvious. Fabric owners don’t have to worry. The increase in dyeing fees must be based on the peak season, so the price of finished fabrics will also rise reasonably without much cost pressure. On the other hand, as long as there are a large number of orders, the increase in dyeing fees is nothing.
