Recently, I have been discussing a topic with many textile friends: If three pieces of gold are not gold, will four pieces of silver still be silver?%20%20When there was no result on this topic, the dyeing fee actually increased first!%20%20
According to the practice of previous years, the increase in dyeing fees can easily trigger the start of the fabric market.%20%20The wave of price increases usually comes with the ordering season. Is this going to break the deadlock of “three golds are not gold, and four silvers are not silver”?%20%20
Three golds are not gold, and the fabric market is slightly stiff at the end of the month!%20%20
March is coming to an end, and the expected “Golden Three” market seems to have not arrived as expected. The overall fabric market trend is relatively volatile, the price increase is difficult to continue, and the market lacks bright products.%20%20In the words of Boss Bu: This year there will be three golds but no gold!%20%20Since weaving manufacturers and the market are still relatively optimistic about the market outlook around the Spring Festival, manufacturers are more enthusiastic about production, and traders are also stocking up. However, now that April is about to enter, the market demand does not seem to have achieved the expected results, which has caused the market to enter.%20%20An awkward situation.%20%20
We can see from the Shengze Monthly Climate Index of the Ministry of Commerce that since May 2018, the market sentiment has risen and fallen. Entering 2019, the market sentiment has been hovering at the level of 110.%20%20We generally use 100 as the watershed of industry prosperity. Now the prosperity has been above 100, which proves that industry prosperity is still preferred, but compared with the same period last year, the gap is too large.%20%20
Although the current start-up rate of mainstream weaving clusters in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is relatively high, averaging nearly 90%, industry inventories are difficult to decline, and have been on the rise recently.%20%20, the current industry inventory in Shengze area is 34-35 days, and some manufacturers said that it is difficult to balance production and sales.%20%20″Recently, the factory’s order intake has been average. Production and sales have been flat in the first half of the month. However, it feels a bit difficult in the second half of the month and inventory has increased.” A polyester taffeta manufacturer in Wujiang area said.%20%20
Dyeing fees have gone up. Is it spring for Boss Bu?%20%20coming soon?%20%20!%20%20
On March 21, an explosion occurred at the Tianjiayi Chemical Factory in Chenjiagang, Xiangshui, Yancheng. The chemical factory is one of the three core factories for the dye intermediate m-phenylenediamine.%20%20, the explosion caused a supply shortage of m-phenylenediamine.%20%20As one of the important intermediates for disperse dyes, reactive dyes and direct dyes, m-phenylenediamine has a very high industry concentration.%20%20
For a time, the dye market was in chaos and prices soared. The ex-factory price of m-phenylenediamine has risen from 47,000 yuan/ton to 100,000 yuan/ton.%20%20Affected by this, the production costs of printing and dyeing manufacturers have increased. Dyeing factories in Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang and other places have issued price increase notices. This wave of price increases has also begun to spread to the Wujiang area. It is said that some dyeing factories in the Wujiang area have also issued notices to customers.%20%20Notice that the dyeing fee will increase by 0.10 yuan/meter.%20%20
“In the past two days, we have been informed that the dyeing fee has increased by 0.10 yuan/meter!” Mr. Shen, a trader in Wujiang area, said, “The prices of some orders signed years ago have been fixed and can only be reduced.%20%20Our own profits.” Mr. Zhong, a trader in Shaoxing area, also said that after the increase in dyeing fees, the dyeing factory’s delivery date has been delayed by about 4-5 days, so it is necessary to communicate with customers about delivery issues in the near future.%20%20
A sudden accident ignited the printing and dyeing market, so can this “east wind” change the pattern of the fabric market?%20%20Woolen cloth?%20%20The textile boss said in one word: Difficult!%20%20
�After visiting the market, many manufacturers currently say that new orders placed in April are not ideal. Some bosses have placed orders before the Spring Festival or in early March. The market lacks the boost of orders and is slightly less confident!%20%20
Shaoxing Cloth Boss A
Currently, the orders we have on hand can be executed until the end of April. Whether subsequent orders can be followed up depends on vision and courage. However, the market this year feels that the prosperity is average, and it is difficult to predict the market situation.%20%20
Boss Shengzebu B
At this stage, our orders have not increased, and the export market in April is not very optimistic. The state has introduced a tax reduction policy. Domestic prices will not be reduced, but tax rebates will be reduced. Foreigners require reductions accordingly, but%20%20Our costs have not been reduced that much, and it will be more difficult to negotiate orders with foreigners.%20%20
Boss Shengzebu C
There are no substantive orders placed in the Shanghai post-show market. Most of them are for proofing and inquiry. Currently, we have orders in hand until mid-April, but there is insufficient follow-up on follow-up orders. I think%20%20The market is expected to slow down in May.%20%20
Changxing Bu Boss D
There have been no new orders for half a month. They are all making old orders. There is not much inventory pressure, but I feel that the first half of the year has been difficult, and it will be even more difficult to get better in the second half of the year.%20%20
Taken together, the current overall market atmosphere is somewhat “cool”.%20%20From the perspective of market transactions, sales volume in most regions has not changed significantly. Although the turmoil in the printing and dyeing market will lead to the advancement of some orders, the demand from terminal textile and clothing customers has not increased substantially.%20%20
Orders are being placed slowly, production capacity in the central and western regions has been greatly impacted, and comprehensive costs remain high, resulting in an imbalance in market supply and demand. Traders are mostly cautious. It is expected that textile bosses will be cautious in the upcoming April.%20%20Life can only be so-so!%20%20
Finally, the editor posted a picture for fun. I still hope that the textile industry can successfully usher in the small peak season of textile this year!%20%20
