Since the second half of the year, orders for home textile fabrics have continued to be placed, and the order volume is large, ushering in a rising trend. At present, many home textile fabric weaving owners are expanding production and purchasing new machines to increase output. Various news points to the fact that the demand for home textile products this year is remarkable, and the manufacturers of home textile fabrics on the market are also experiencing a “good market”!
The home textile market has received stable orders, with imitation linen, peach skin, pongee, etc. performing outstandingly
As early as September, we had already conducted a survey on the home textile market. , combined with this survey, it can be seen that the market situation of the home textile market this year is indeed better, and there is a strong momentum of rebirth in a contrarian environment. Judging from the results of this survey, the current situation of orders received by companies producing home textile products on the market is still good and in a stable state. Among them, most companies reported that the number of recent orders has improved compared with November, and some companies have placed orders until the end of the year.

Qian Jianzhong, manager of Silcheng Textile, which produces wide-width pongee, said: “Recently, the factory’s machines have been operated at about 90%, and production will not be reduced in the future, because the recent We have received a lot of orders, and production has been scheduled until January.

“Our company mainly produces bedding fabrics such as brushed peach skin velvet. In the past two months, it has obviously improved a lot. There have been a lot more orders, especially export orders for foreign trade. There were almost none before. So it has been very busy recently. Yes, it is estimated that we will be busy until late January.” said Lu Jun, the person in charge of Bangrong Home Textiles.
In terms of products, home textile fabrics cover a wide range of products, such as conventional curtain fabrics, sofa fabrics, bedding fabrics, tablecloths, etc. Most of the fabrics are wide-width gray fabrics. , such as pongee, peach skin, imitation linen, suede, satin, etc. Through research, the most popular varieties on the market recently are wide-width pongee, brushed peach skin, velvet chiffon, and imitation linen.
Zhou Xiaoyan, the person in charge of Melte Textile, said: “The recent order situation is not bad. This year’s domestic sales of home textiles Both sales and export sales are better than clothing products. The best-selling ones are brushed peach skin velvet, which is mainly made into four-piece bed sets, and velvet chiffon also sells well and is used for window screens.”
ANG Chen Lirong, manager of Yang Textile, also said that fabrics such as linen-like fabrics used as wall coverings have been hot-selling recently, with most orders being sold domestically and some exported.
The price of home textile gray fabrics has gone up and down
In the recent period, the domestic trade market has been relatively stable, and the foreign trade market has also recovered well. However, the price of raw materials has had some impact on the company’s order acceptance, especially when the price of raw materials fluctuates, which directly affects profits.
In recent years, raw material prices have fluctuated greatly, coupled with unstable market conditions, gray fabric prices have become increasingly unstable. According to the changes in raw material prices, polyester raw materials have been rising since October, which has also driven up the rise in gray fabrics. Until now, although the raw materials have been stable, after the previous increase, the current price of gray fabrics has also been raised. Therefore, some manufacturers said that the price of home textile gray fabrics has increased recently. Lu Jun, the person in charge of Bangrong Home Textiles, revealed: “Recently, gray fabrics have increased slightly. The raw materials have increased some time ago, but not by much, so the gray fabrics have increased by about 0.1-0.2 yuan per meter. The fluctuation is not very big, and the impact on profits is also Not big.”
However, some companies said that home textile gray fabrics have fallen recently, because the price of gray fabrics follows the overall weaving Changes due to changes in market conditions. Recently, the weaving market has begun to cool down, and manufacturers have once again lowered the price of gray fabrics. Wu Jie, manager of Champions League Textile, said: “Recently, home textile gray fabrics have dropped a bit. On the one hand, there are more people following the trend recently, and on the other hand, there are not as many orders as in the first half of the year. For example, the finished product is more than three meters tall and 50*75 glossy. For satin, the price of gray fabric last year was 2.7 yuan/meter, and now it is only 2.3 yuan/meter.”
Last year, the situation of the home textile market was obviously not very good, and it also faced the problems of overcapacity and lack of orders. . However, this year the trend suddenly changed and it has become a relatively popular industry today. It can be said that the epidemic is the most important influencing factor.
The epidemic has accelerated the consumption of household products and increased demand
The new crown epidemic is something that everyone in the world keeps away from virus, but because of such a virus, people around the world are forced to reduce their outdoor activities and spend more time at home. The increase in home activities will inevitably accelerate the consumption of home textile products. Under the epidemic, personal hygiene issues have also received further attention. For example, bed sheets are changed more frequently, curtains are replaced more frequently, and many places abroad like to use disposable curtains. The frequent use of household products has naturally increased demand, boosting the home textile market to receive good orders.
The epidemic has led to a decline in residents’ consumption power and restrictions on the export of orders
However, the epidemic has also restricted the number of home textile orders Quantity, whether it is domestic sales or export sales, has been affected by the epidemic and reduced sales. In terms of domestic sales, although the epidemic has been effectively controlled in China, there are still some “sequelae”, especially the economy has not returned to its original level. Then In terms of consumption, it is still weak. Chinese people do not use disposable household items and do not increase the frequency of replacement, which restricts the increase in home textile orders. In terms of export sales, the epidemic situation in many places overseas is very serious, and many companies have suspended operations and production. , and even terminals and ports are unable to receive goods normally due to problems such as workers. As a result, even if there is demand for orders from abroad, normal orders, goods receipt and production cannot be placed due to the epidemic, which also restricts part of the demand.
Home textile fabric bosses are also relatively optimistic about market expectations in the first half of next year. The COVID-19 vaccine process has been developing rapidly recently, and it is expected that it will be fully controlled in the first half of next year, and the global economy is expected to recover. Especially if the epidemic is controlled This will further increase foreign trade orders and no longer be subject to export restrictions. In terms of domestic sales, with the recovery of the economy, real estate may once again become a popular domestic industry, thereby amplifying the demand for home textile products.
