Can pongee and polyester taffeta be used as protective clothing? Just last week, everyone heard that this kind of low-standard fabrics can be used as protective clothing. Moments and WeChat groups were all “exploded”, and they began to frantically buy such fabrics. However, in the past few days, the craze for this kind of fabrics seems to be gradually increasing. fade away.
Blindly following the trend or real sales? Can low-end products really support the entire textile market?
The current textile market is too chaotic. There is no hot sales in the season. Suddenly a good-selling variety appears, and everyone is rushing to produce it. , to resell. From the initial meltblown fabrics and non-woven fabrics to the current polyester taffeta and pongee fabrics. A textile boss who produces polyester taffeta and pongee said: “The profit of a conventional machine is about 20-30 yuan. This kind of profit can only protect the capital. If there is any trouble, you will lose money.”
Nowadays, the price of low-specification fabrics that can produce protective clothing on the market is only between 0.8 and 0.9 yuan. These low-end fabrics already have the problem of overcapacity. Now they are all produced (some factories disdain to produce such low-end fabrics) and sold, which disrupts the market rules. Since they are buried in the soil and cannot be decomposed, in the end everyone will still choose non-woven fabrics… This makes It seems to be a hot seller, but it only lasts for a short time.
Some people may ask, how can I make money if I don’t sell these? Now, don’t I just rely on these fabrics for protective clothing to make money? The demand is huge and there are many people to sell to, which will cause the old problem of overcapacity again. There are too many people in your circle of friends selling protective fabrics such as non-woven fabrics. But just think about it, have you really sold a lot? The only people who make money are those who started making protective fabrics from the beginning.
It is undeniable that although the popularity of such low-end products has slowly receded, it has indeed been popular for a while. Compared with other fabrics, The order volume is still acceptable, so why do manufacturers that do not produce this type of fabric continue to produce inventory without orders?
, the inventory in Shengze area is getting higher and higher, from the 40 days of inventory in early April to 44 days. In just 20 days, the inventory increased by four days, which is more than 6 days higher than the inventory days in the same period of previous years. Reaching a record high in the past three years, the inventory is rising but not falling, leaving textile bosses at a loss.
Is there no loss in the shutdown? ,No! The money spent on work stoppages is wasted
The owner of a textile company with 500 looms said: “If work stops, not only do you have to pay loans, Factory rent, various financial expenses, depreciation of machines, and workers’ basic wages must be paid. If it’s more than paying workers’ wages, workers will definitely not buy it and just say goodbye and leave. It will be very difficult to recruit unions by then, and it’s hard to think about it. It’s cost-effective.”
According to what this textile boss said, the worker’s salary is 300 * 60 yuan / day = 18,000 yuan, and a loan of 10 million is calculated as 2,000 yuan. /day, the rent is 5,000 yuan per day for 10,000 square meters, and the transformer subsidy is 1,000 yuan per day. In this way, it costs almost 30,000 yuan a day. There is no output and an expenditure of 30,000 yuan. No one is willing to do this. I have previously calculated the cost of 400 looms for the normal operation of the factory, (based on 400 looms) Taking the loom as an example) First of all, the electricity bill costs about 20,000 yuan a day, and the water bill is saved by using lake water, which costs about 2 to 3,000 yuan. The raw materials are also purchased every day, which costs about 50,000 yuan, plus the workers’ wages, so Calculating all the expenses for one day adds up to about 100,000 yuan. Although it is much more than the cost of downtime, there are still expenses if there is no production, so it is better to hold on tenaciously. However, this is just one of the reasons why textile bosses refuse to stop work.
The cost of 400 looms for one day of operation
The cost of shutting down 500 looms
While the raw materials are cheap, weave more quickly
The reason why many textile bosses are still weaving in stock is because the price of raw materials is low, so they have to weave more stock and keep it. Mr. Li, a textile boss in Shengze area, said: “Stop work will not happen. If the work is stopped, the raw materials will not be stocked. The raw materials are so cheap now. You can buy them and use them as you like. They should not go up in the near future. Take advantage of this moment to save costs. When the raw materials go up, you can still sell them at a high price. .”
However, this idea is not a long-term solution. After all, money is not inexhaustible. If there are no orders, assets will be exhausted in exchange for A warehouse of inventory will only make the situation worse over time. If the market gets better in a short time, this idea is still very good, but if the market continues to be difficult to improve, then before long, the inventory will be piled up, the funds will become very tight, and the final outcome will be the suspension of production.
In short, don’t lose confidence in the next market situation. One day the market will get better. Only by holding on can we see hope. The main reason now is the epidemic. Once the epidemic situation improves, the textile market will also see hope.
