Recently, a trend of T8 fabrics has once again swept the textile circle, and the phenomenon of tight raw materials and shortage of gray fabrics has reappeared. A textile boss even said: “I have a customer who has no time to weave fabrics recently. People have been asking him to get goods, but they are all taken away as soon as they come out. There is basically no inventory!”
It is not surprising that there is such a phenomenon in the off-season. Compared with the previously popular imitation memory polyester yarn, the seasonal hot sales are reasonable, but the seasonal hot sales alone will not create such a hot situation. The reasons There is another saying…
Seasonal + “Internet celebrity” = extra points for hot sales
T8 fabric is famous, and it is said that T8 is an upgraded version of T400 , T400 fabrics are all well-known star series in the textile circle. A series of gray fabrics such as “Glory of the King, Poka” and other gray fabrics were booming in the textile market last year. Even in 2019, when the market was not good, they were able to stand out and stand out. Not to mention its upgraded version of T8 fabric.
T8 fabric is a suitable fabric choice for autumn and winter clothing such as down jackets and jackets. In addition, T8 fabric has greater elasticity than T400. Breakthrough, great resilience. The new things that have just been developed in the past two years are more popular among the public. The above-mentioned textile boss also said: The inventory of T8 has always been 0, while the inventory of T400 is quite a lot, which shows that compared with T400, T8 has become this segment. The “Internet celebrity product” of time.
The seasonal hot sales and its Internet celebrity attributes make it a hot-selling object in the market. Of course, these two points alone are not enough to support the reason for its unusual popularity. The same goes for raw materials and dyeing plants. Very important key.
Reduced raw materials + mature dyeing factory technology = hot selling points
“Recently, the 150D raw materials used in the T8 series are in very short supply, and many weaving factories are queuing up. In terms of raw materials, and the number of manufacturers that can produce T8 raw materials is limited in Shengze, the quantity cannot meet the public demand,” said a salesperson from a raw material factory.
The shortage in quantity is on the one hand. The main reason is that the price of T8 raw materials this year has been reduced by about 8,000 yuan/ton compared with last year. The cost advantage is obvious. In addition, the upstream raw material manufacturers are limited. Many manufacturers are also promoting T8 raw materials, and there are not many manufacturers producing T8 fabrics in Shengze area, resulting in a situation where T8 fabrics need to be purchased in queues.
The process of dyeing factories is also one of the very important reasons for the hot sales. It is understood that it took two or three years to develop T8 raw materials, but it is not a new product from beginning to end. Since its popularity last year, dyeing factories have Research on its various properties has already begun in this regard, so it is already very mature in terms of color fastness and heat shrinkage in dyeing factory processes. Who doesn’t love a piece of mature fabric?
“We have recently opened 40 machines to knit T8 in the factory. This fabric has become very popular recently. Many customers want it, so the supply is a little short of demand. As far as I know, many factories now have enough machines. For knitting T8, the best one I sell now is Zhenmei T8. This kind of fabric has its own advantages, so it is natural that it sells well.” said the owner of a textile factory.
Autumn and winter fabrics show sharp corners early,
Textile bosses need to watch the timing!
In fact, autumn and winter fabrics began to slowly become active in the market as early as mid-July. For example, the previous 500,000 meters of imitation memory polyester fabric is a good example. A textile boss told the editor: “Although the current market is not optimistic, there are still a small number of orders for autumn and winter fabrics. It is much better now than during the epidemic.”
It is already August. , Autumn and winter fabrics are indeed starting to become active. At this time in previous years, textile bosses have already begun to prepare autumn and winter fabrics. This year, due to the epidemic, it has been a little late. Now, autumn and winter fabrics are gradually starting to develop in a good direction. It is completely possible. I understand, but although the trend of autumn and winter fabrics is now improving, textile bosses still need to be cautious, not to over-weave, and still be wary of the danger of overcapacity!
Generally speaking, the hot sales of T8 fabrics are not unexpected. The off-season does not necessarily have to look “lifeless”, there still need to be bright spots. Yes, T8 fabric may be popular today, and T400 may be popular again tomorrow. Changes in the textile market are difficult to control. For example, the market may be a little lackluster now, but tomorrow may be a different scene. The market situation has actually not reached rock bottom since the epidemic. There are surprises from time to time, dear textile bosses! The most important thing is to look at the future with a smile, and have confidence in the next market trend! </p
