Welcome the New Year! Entering the new year, for the textile market, no matter how difficult it is in the early stage, there will always be some orders that will be shipped before the holidays and the Spring Festival. However, in today’s changing situation, this model also gives textile people More pressure.
There was an order but the dyeing factory went on holiday early
The market seems to have tailed off recently, with some printing and dyeing factories experiencing warehouse liquidations and even stopping color printing! There are also dyeing factories that have holidays early due to various factors. Of course, the main reason for the liquidation situation is that many companies chose to rush out a batch of goods before the year, and the sudden orders were all poured into the dyeing factories that were originally dull. They were caught off guard and inevitably accumulated more and more orders. .
In addition, the editor visited some companies, and the owner of the company told the editor that dyeing factories will basically have a holiday from January 10th to 13th. As you can imagine, there is only so much time, and the dyeing factory is under great pressure. Moreover, some workers also need to go home early to celebrate the New Year, and there are not enough manpower. The profits of the dyeing factory are also affected by costs. Even if there are many orders, they still have to choose to refuse to accept them or take the holiday early as planned.
How is the dyeing factory going?
In the past half month, there have been constant calls in the market that people are going to have a holiday. As mentioned earlier, early holidays in dyeing factories due to various factors, whether it is the suspension of steam supply to thermal power plants or the high cost pressure caused by polarization, are important reasons that affect the market trend of printing and dyeing factories. At present, there is news of holidays, led by Zhejiang and Guangdong, and some factories.
According to interviews, although the holiday time of printing and dyeing enterprises is not much different from previous years, in recent years, the cost pressure of printing and dyeing has been difficult to continue to be transmitted downwards. Especially in 2021, first of all, the market will be treacherous and unpredictable, with environmental protection production restrictions, skyrocketing raw material prices, etc. In particular, the main costs of printing and dyeing come from dyes, steam, natural gas, and electricity. After many price increases, printing and dyeing Companies have also raised prices many times.
However, the downstream pressure-bearing capacity is limited after all, and the competitive pressure of the market cannot be underestimated. Moreover, at the end of 2021, some regions increased electricity charges. This is another process that companies must bear pressure, and the increase is limited. Profits will also be suppressed.
As the Spring Festival approaches, some factories have also stopped warehousing. It is precisely because of this that the terminal is forced to release some orders, making the current market stable. The operating rate of printing and dyeing factories increased slightly to 72.3% this week.
Weaving inventory barrier height
For the market, the liquidation of dyeing factories or holidays are inevitable situations before the Spring Festival. According to the Shengze Index of the Ministry of Commerce, it can be seen that the operating rate of downstream weaving enterprises has dropped slightly. Domestic sales orders have dropped sharply recently, and orders from the export market have gradually weakened. Compared with last week, the overall number of shipments has dropped. With the operating rate stable, gray fabric inventories continue to rise. At present, the weaving operating rate in Shengze area has dropped slightly to about 71%; the market is generally selling, and the overall gray cloth inventory has increased to about 33.5 days. Overall, apart from preparing some goods to cope with possible price increases after the year, the market will not change much before the Spring Festival.
Stock explosions cannot stop dyeing factories from going on holiday, and the high level of weaving inventories also confirms that the market is flat. As the Spring Festival approaches, textile workers should get ready to celebrate the new year.
