As recycled fabrics have been vigorously promoted in Europe and the United States, and transmitted to China, recycled fabrics have become the favorite of many textile people, with many orders and profits. High, market prospects are good, this series of superior conditions have attracted a large number of entrants, whether traders or weaving factories, are applying for GRS certificates.
The so-called GRS certificate is the abbreviation of the Global Recycling Standard for Textile and Clothing. It is a verification established for recycled fibers established by the International Environmental Management Alliance Certification Agency (CU). standard. In addition to regulating the source of raw materials, this verification standard also regulates wastewater treatment and chemical use during the production process.
In short, if you want to gain recognition from European and American customers, export For recycled fabrics, the GRS certificate is equivalent to a passport. Therefore, in the past two years, some agencies that specialize in applying for such certificates have emerged in the market, and the threshold for applying for this certificate has become lower and lower.
The entry threshold for GRS certificates has been lowered, and more and more people have Textile companies are flocking to it
Last year, the certification of GRS certificate cost at least 50,000 yuan, and the price was still relatively high. This year, it has dropped by more than half. The entry threshold for GRS is getting lower and lower, and the current recycled raw materials, weaving, and dyeing processes are also very mature. This series of conditions has caused more and more textile companies to flock to it. .
But if there are too many people entering the game, the cake will inevitably not be divided enough, and In the first half of this year, due to the epidemic, the order volume of recycled fabrics was very small. In the second half of the year, the foreign trade situation recovered slightly. In order to make up for the orders during the epidemic, many companies also lowered the price of fabrics in order to expand business volume. Although the current price Compared with ordinary fabrics, it is still higher, but it is not as popular as it was at the beginning.
According to a fabric boss: “The price of recycled fabrics was still relatively high last year, but now more and more people are doing it, and the price has come down. The profit is not as good as last year.”
Another cloth boss also revealed: “280T brushed pongee was around 5.1 last year, but this year it is only 4.6. ”
The price of recycled fabrics has dropped, and more countries may join in the future
As we all know, although it is a recycled fabric, it is not much different from ordinary fabrics in terms of performance and feel.
A boss who makes recycled fabrics said: “The biggest feature of it is environmental protection, because the yarn of recycled fabrics is extracted from used Coke bottles. After a series of treatments, the use of oil is reduced and air pollution can be effectively reduced. As the concept of environmental protection continues to deepen, European countries will be more inclined to choose fabrics that have similar performance and can protect the environment. Nowadays, in our country, Recycled fabrics have begun to be used in some places, and the bags used by some government officials for meetings are made of recycled fabrics.”
In recent years, the world has become more concerned about environmental protection. As awareness continues to increase, environmental protection has become an unavoidable topic. Domestically speaking, environmental protection inspections have never been lax in the past two years. For textile enterprises, environmental protection is a sharp knife hanging over their heads. If they are not paying attention, they may will be eliminated, which can also be seen in daily life. For example, garbage classification has now entered various communities, shopping malls, etc. In the future, more countries or regions will use recycled environmentally friendly fabrics.
Because the price of recycled environmentally friendly fabrics was high at the beginning, not people in all countries and regions could afford it, so it was only implemented in developed countries such as Europe and the United States. , but as the entry threshold for recycled environmentally friendly fabrics decreases and the price drops, it will be accepted by people in more and more countries and regions, and it will even gradually reach a price similar to that of ordinary fabrics. Just imagine, two yuan Fabrics with similar quality and similar prices, why not choose more environmentally friendly ones? An integrated industry and trade company that produces outdoor fabrics said: “Making recycled fabrics is a manifestation of social responsibility. Many of our customers are also asking us for quotations of recycled fabrics, so next year we are planning to apply for a GRS certificate. In the future, this market It should be getting bigger and bigger.”
In general, the editor believes that the prospects for recycled fabrics are very promising, but companies that make such fabrics We also need to realize that there are more and more entrants and the industry competition is becoming more and more fierce. How can we get a share of the limited cake? The editor believes that companies also need to improve the quality, added value and fashion sense of fabrics. We are working hard on this aspect, and it is understood that currentlySome companies have developed textured recycled fabrics, which are fashionable and environmentally friendly, and have won unanimous praise from customers. In the future, only recycled fabrics that have these functions will be able to gain a larger market share!
