“Recently, for a piece of fabric, customers placed orders for one million meters each,” said a textile boss.
Although it is the peak season, many textile bosses said that the market is not very ideal. There are orders, but there are very few large orders. What kind of fabric can have millions of meters of volume in one order?
Monofilament random slub, a niche fabric among the masses
The hot-selling fabric this time is monofilament random slub. The warp of this fabric is made of monofilament nylon, and the weft is made of rayon 10S+32S slub. Its texture is light and thin, and it is a spring and summer fabric. It has a preferential price and has a deep sense of flow. It is loved by the market. At the same time, there are still many manufacturers of this fabric, but it is not as popular as conventional fabrics. It falls between conventional fabrics and niche fabrics. According to the textile boss, most of the reasons for this hot sale are Because it’s affordable and it’s a hot-selling seasonal fabric right now.
It is understood that the current market price of this fabric is 3.45-3.55 yuan/meter, the raw material cost is about 2.6 yuan/meter, and 95% of the gray fabric is coded. Assuming that under normal production conditions, you will definitely not make much money. Faced with the low price Now that prices are prevalent, textile bosses can only obtain profits through some of their own means.
Increase speed and increase profits
“Our current production machine for monofilament random slub production can make about 100 yuan/day, but the machine speed must be turned up to more than 700 rpm.” said the textile boss.
Under normal circumstances, the speed of the machine that produces this kind of fabric is about 650 rpm. Increasing the speed will increase the output at the same electricity cost. Of course, it will also increase the loss of the machine, and not all machines can achieve this by increasing the speed. Higher profits, some wide machines cannot reach 700 rpm. Monofilament random slub fabrics like this one may still be profitable through some channels and can even increase profits. Some conventional fabrics have even lower profits. Although it is unlikely to lose money now, there are not a few who do not make money.
Nowadays, many fabric prices in the market are facing the dilemma of rising prices. Textile bosses will not refuse to accept orders. Many low-profit orders can only be increased through some channels, such as changing to cheaper raw materials, increasing machine speed, etc. , which is the main reason why although it is the peak season and the order situation is good, the textile bosses are shouting that the market is poor.
Goodbye Jin San, hello Yin Si
In fact, many textile bosses have already received orders by the end of May. It is obvious that this golden three is not gold-free. Of course, under the premise of reviewing the golden three, we must also predict the situation of the silver four.
Usually, whether the market is good or not depends on whether the printing and dyeing factories are booming. Unexpectedly, this year, although everyone is shouting that the market is not good, the printing and dyeing factories have been continuing to burst. Many dyeing factory salesmen are not busy until 9:10 p.m. I can’t go home at all, but it also exposed a phenomenon. Weaving manufacturers are constantly receiving orders, and the price of gray fabrics is difficult to rise, but dyeing factories are bursting out of stock every day. This is probably not a real demand. Most of them are traders stocking up, which will also cause four problems. The decrease in monthly orders, assuming there is too much inventory, will only lead to a vicious cycle of low prices and inventory that is difficult to sell.
Taken together, the market situation in April will continue to be the same even if demand has not fully recovered. It seems that the order situation is good, but in fact there is not that much real demand. Although the foreign trade market is open, the recovery of demand is not It can be recovered within a month or two and half a year.
