The imitation silk that was supposed to be a hot seller in March and April last year was delayed due to the epidemic. I thought that the imitation silk would have a good market this year, but the reality was not satisfactory. The “flash-in-the-pan” hot sales of artificial silk at the end of February only lasted for a few days. Later, news of hot sales of artificial silk in the market became very rare.
In anticipation of the peak season after the new year, many imitation silk manufacturers have stocked up their warehouses Simulated silk, coupled with last year’s slightly digested inventory, the market for simulated silk gray fabrics has reached a peak. As a result, the weak peak season frustrated the hopes of all textile companies, and the gray fabric market once again set off a “storm of low-price competition”
The cost of five or six yuan was only sold for more than 1 yuan/meter
“Some manufacturers have sold more than one million meters of imitation silk at low prices, and the cost is five or six yuan for island satin, stretch satin, chiffon, etc. Special specifications are packaged and sold together, and some of them are stockpiled when the raw materials are at their peak. Calculating, the loss should be 5 to 6 million.” said a textile boss in Shengze area.
It is understood that these gray fabrics cannot be called “processed fabrics” and are basically high-quality stocks. Some are outdated products, and some are special varieties left over from orders, some of which cost as much as six or seven yuan per meter. Although the stocked gray cloth cannot reach the market popularity of fresh gray cloth, if you don’t rush to sell it and wait for the buyer, you can still sell it at a good price. But now it is generally sold at the price of processed cloth. In fact, the textile boss is also in trouble.
When will the spring of artificial silk arrive?
It is now mid-May, and this year’s off-season has come earlier than before. The market situation has been “submitted”, and the hot sales of imitation silk have once again failed. But what makes people curious is that elastic fabrics are unexpectedly selling well, but light and thin imitation silk products have yet to be seen. A textile boss asked early: “Isn’t everyone buying new clothes this summer?”
Due to the epidemic last year, most garment factories had some spring and summer fabrics that were not consumed. It is for this reason that even if the domestic epidemic is controlled and domestic demand recovers, the demand for imitation silk will not disappear. Much better. In addition, the foreign trade market is not fully open, and the demand is even lower. Elastic fabrics are widely involved, so they can sell well in such a world.
In recent years, many imitation silk fabrics are gradually being eliminated by the market, and people are now more In pursuit of comfort, it is difficult to replace real silk with many imitation silk touches. Some new fabrics can easily replace existing imitation silk products. If it were ten years ago, imitation silk fabrics would have been the darling of the market.
The off-season is coming, let alone imitation silk, how many are hot-selling?
With the advent of the off-season, there seem to be few hot-selling varieties in the market recently. Even the various elastic fabrics that have been selling well before are slowly losing their luster. It’s the traditional off-season for the textile market. In previous years, there would still be orders placed in May, but this year there are fewer. Many textile bosses have said that there are fewer and fewer hot-selling varieties in the near future, and some regular varieties in the market still have a certain sales volume. Other orders are becoming less and less.
However, it is very normal for there to be few orders now. After all, the off-season is coming. If there are orders It would be strange if there were more. It will take time to recover demand in the post-epidemic era, and the saying “three good years and three bad years” has been circulating in the textile market. It just so happens that 2021 is the last year of the three bad years. Maybe the market will get better next year.
In short, the next orders will only become less and less. I believe that the textile bosses have also made preparations early. Again, The off-season is not necessarily a bad thing, it is just to give busy people a chance to buffer.
