On the 21st, polyester filament is on sale!
On Wednesday, U.S. and Burundi oil prices first rose and then fell. They once rose by more than 1% during the session and continued to fall in the evening, giving up all the gains during the day. As of the close, WTI crude oil fell 0.09% to US$52.94/barrel; Brent crude oil fell 0.25% to US$55.70/barrel.
It can be seen that the international crude oil price is still at a relatively high level, and its supporting role for polyester filament is still exist. However, today, polyester filament yarn has changed from its previous strong trend, and some products have been discounted and promoted, especially POY, with a larger promotion.
It is reported that
A major mainstream manufacturer in Tongxiang has a one-day POY promotion;
The POY price of polyester yarn from a factory in Taicang fell by 300 yuan/ton;
POY price from a factory in Xiaoshan dropped by 100 yuan/ton; the price of polyester yarn from another factory dropped by 100-200 yuan/ton;
……
According to usual practice, each month-end polyester manufacturer’s promotion will bring a certain amount of sales, but from the day’s Judging from the production and sales situation, market transactions are divided. Promotional manufacturers’ production and sales performance is hot, as high as 200%, while some factories’ production and sales are still 30%-50%.
From the recent production and sales chart of polyester filament, it can be found that polyester filament has been maintained at a low level recently. During production and sales, manufacturers’ inventories are also slowly rising. Coupled with the recurrence of the epidemic, the market is worried about the temperament of the weaving market after the Spring Festival. Moreover, polyester manufacturers have been under high load this year. If production and sales remain low, inventory accumulation will be faster. , so due to the uncertainty of the market outlook, polyester manufacturers began to plan in advance to destock.
From the perspective of weaving manufacturers, after intensive replenishment in December, most weaving manufacturers have about 20-30 days of raw material inventory on hand, which is higher than the same period last year. The intention to restock on a large scale again is not strong.
Of course, weaving manufacturers that currently have better orders on hand still have additional stocks of raw materials for the year after, but they are still waiting to see this week’s discount promotions. After all, the current raw material prices are at Relatively high, no manufacturer wants to buy the dip halfway up the mountain.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or a plan. On the 20th, the National Health Commission also provided the latest details on the issue of “how workers will return home” this year.
The plan mentioned: “Returning home with a negative nucleic acid test certificate will It will be implemented after the Spring Festival travel begins on January 28 and will end after the Spring Festival travel ends on March 8.” It can be seen that in order to return home without a nucleic acid test certificate, workers will most likely choose to go home before January 28.
For weaving manufacturers, unless they want to stay locally to celebrate the New Year, all non-local employees in the factory will go home after the 28th, and the machines will stop.
According to the monitoring of China Silk City Network, a small number of weaving manufacturers have already gone on holiday, and the remaining companies are also preparing to go on holiday next week. The market operating rate has dropped significantly. At present, the operating load in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is about 50%, of which the operating rate of water-jet looms in Shengze and Changxing is about 60%; the operating rate of Haining warp knitting machines is about 80%; the operating rate of Xiaoshao circular knitting machines is below 40%. It is expected that the market will start operating next week The rate will also drop significantly.
Starts from January 28 to March 8 (the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month) , which means that it is very likely that many migrant workers will not return to their work sites in the middle month and a half. Compared with the time when workers began to arrive after the 15th day of the first lunar month in previous years and companies began to resume production, this year it may be delayed by 10 days, and production may be delayed by 10 days. The “vacuum period” may last longer than in previous years.
In order to alleviate this pressure, some companies with good orders actively encourage employees to stay locally for the New Year.
Recently, a notice from a textile factory canceling the Spring Festival holiday appeared on the market: the original Spring Festival holiday arrangement was temporarily canceled and work was resumed as normal. Of course, in order to motivate employees, the company also gives monetary rewards.
It is true that this year has been affected by repeated epidemics. Many textile bosses are afraid that workers will not be able to work after the Spring Festival. Arrive at work on time, and internal promotions are being made to stay in the local area for the New Year, and certain rewards will be provided.
Mr. Zhou, the person in charge of a weaving factory in Wujiang area that specializes in grosgrain and four-way stretch fabrics, said: “The company is preparing to issue red envelope subsidies to employees who stay here for the New Year. This is precisely because domestic The epidemic situation has been recurring, and I am afraid that the start of construction will be delayed again next year, which will affect the delivery date, so I hope that employees can stay here for the New Year.”
Another textile company boss also said that recent orders are ideal. , so I want to encourage employees to stay during the Spring Festival holiday and increase production. “We plan to be able to operate 40-50% of the machines by then. The market price is now very high and the inventory is not enough to sell, so we want to keep our employees. Of course we will give our employees…Provide relevant welfare benefits and try to achieve a win-win situation. ”
It can be seen that the main reason why companies currently encourage employees to celebrate the New Year in situ is that they are afraid that the uncertainty of the epidemic after the Spring Festival holiday will cause a labor shortage like last year, and employees from other places will not be able to come over smoothly. , affecting the delivery date of orders, and also missing good opportunities to make money, so qualified companies will encourage employees to stay for the New Year as much as possible.
Of course, judging from visits and surveys, currently There are very few weaving manufacturers that plan to continue production during the Spring Festival. Most business leaders still respect the wishes of their employees and let them go home to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
