In this year’s textile market, most fabrics have experienced sharp declines in sales and increasing inventories. The problem of selling goods, which was relatively obscure in previous years, has become ubiquitous in the textile industry this year. In fact, it is not that there are no hot-selling products on the market, such as some functional fabrics, recycled fabrics, new fabrics, etc., which still often promote the market. A wave of peaks.
It’s just that these fabrics tend to be mid-to-high-end products, and not all textile people in the market can easily get involved. At the same time, these companies that are engaged in the production and trade of ordinary, mid-to-low-end fabrics still account for the majority. . Doesn’t this kind of company have a product worthy of market attention and bringing sales and profits?
Not necessarily. There is a type of fabric that is very common. Although their sales volume this year cannot be the same as in previous years, the overall condition is much better than other fabric varieties.
Fabric orders are stable , shipped every three to five days
“110,000 meters of 240T pongee is chartered and delivered to the dyeing factory. The inventory of 75D high-elastic pongee and 300T pongee is running out.” It is obvious between the lines. It can be seen that the company’s pongee textile orders are quite large, and it seems that the factory’s daily output of 70,000 meters is only enough to barely sustain it. Moreover, orders for this kind of fabrics that sell well over 10,000 yuan or more than 100,000 yuan do not happen occasionally, but happen every once in a while.
In fact, the status of pongee textile orders has always been pretty good. According to the person in charge of a dyeing factory, their orders in the factory dropped a lot in March and April this year. , but the order volume of pongee has been constant. At that time, there were even orders for more than one million meters of 300T pongee coming to the factory to negotiate the price. However, the customer’s request to make it white only cost 0.4 yuan/meter of dyeing fee, which was difficult for the factory to accept, and it was not implemented in the end. While there are no decent orders for other varieties, Chun Yafang often receives such large orders. It can be said that their performance this year is very impressive.
Not only the more common and common 240T, 300T… pongee is performing well, the order performance of high-elastic pongee is also extremely outstanding.
According to an employee of a simulated silk dyeing factory, this year, due to the poor market situation of simulated silk, the factory basically does not have the feeling that the workshop was full of simulated silk fabrics like in previous years. The factory can only process other fabric varieties. Among them, the order volume of high-elastic pongee has been relatively stable. No matter how busy the factory is, you can always see a lot of high-elastic pongee being made.
High cost performance, new favorite in the lining market
Polyester taffeta is also an old product, but after years of improvement and development, it has Become complete in variety and diverse in style. The hot sales of pongee this year can be said to some extent to seize the polyester taffeta market.
As we all know, polyester taffeta is a relatively low-end product among fabrics, and most of the low-density types can only be used in the lining of clothing. However, the sales volume of this type of fabric has plummeted this year. Even a small factory with 30 to 40 looms has an inventory of 210T and 240T polyester taffeta, which is often more than one million meters. Although the inventory of other fabrics is also high, it is definitely not as exaggerated as polyester taffeta. As the main force in the lining market, why did the demand suddenly decrease so drastically?
There are many reasons for the shrinking sales of polyester taffeta, but the factors that caused Polyester Polyester’s invasion of the polyester taffeta market and snatched polyester taffeta orders cannot be ignored.
According to a textile trader, he has been placing orders for high-elastic pongee in the past few years, and these orders are all used as linings without exception. Although the order volume from other customers has been relatively reduced this year, orders for this type of high-elastic pongee with several kilometers or tens of thousands of meters have not been interrupted. And customers’ requirements are getting higher and higher, with various washing, light color fastness, etc. emerging one after another. It can be seen that this type of fabric is most likely to be used in some mid-to-high-end clothing.
High-elastic pongee has the advantages of good color fastness, softness, breathability, and closeness to the skin, as well as no shortcomings such as spandex fiber breakage. This type of fabric has always been popular in the market, but the initial price is high. This makes it difficult for this type of fabric to reach consumers on a large scale.
According to the trader mentioned above, the 75D high-elastic pongee he made was out of stock on the market in the past two years and had to be woven to order, which basically cost 4-5 yuan per meter. Later, it gradually became available on the market and the price dropped to about 3 yuan/meter. However, this year the price of this fabric has dropped to 2 yuan/meter. The price of 2 yuan/meter can be said to have entered or been close to the price range of polyester taffeta fabrics. At the same time, the superior quality of this type of fabric is difficult to match with polyester taffeta, so it is very important to purchase this type of fabric as lining in the market. Reasonable, after all, the price/performance ratio of pongee is much higher in comparison.
When we have been exploring how to sell textile fabric products, what everyone thinks about most is transformation, upgrading and innovative products. It seems that only new varieties can get more orders from the market. But the performance of pongee seems to tell us that the low-end fabric market can still make a difference. After all, some liningsThere is still a huge demand for materials used in every corner of clothing such as pocket cloth. </p
