Cotton and yarn prices have risen
Recently, news has come from the Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets that cotton yarn prices have generally increased by 300-500 yuan. / ton, the price has risen by up to about 1,000 yuan / ton in the past week, and the price for high yarn count has been increased by 2,000 yuan / ton. Market participants report that there are more orders in the Guangzhou market. The price of cotton yarn was still falling a few days ago, but it rose again a few days ago.
According to spinning mill customers, this situation does exist. The increase in cotton yarn prices is mainly driven by the increase in cotton prices, but it is not clear whether it can continue.
Market participants believe that this wave of market prices is mainly due to downstream replenishment at the end of the year, and they are still skeptical about whether consumer demand will increase. However, many textile companies have generally been optimistic about the market outlook recently.
Both domestic and foreign cotton futures have been rising recently, and the market has ushered in a small climax. As the downstream gradually enters the end-of-year restocking stage, the number of lint cotton transactions has increased. , domestic cotton spot prices rose slightly. The weather in Xinjiang has caused transportation costs to rise, and cotton prices have subsequently increased. Various reasons have increased spinning costs, which in turn has led to a general increase in cotton yarn prices. The current reaction is that the sales of mid- to low-end yarns are better, while the high-end textile and clothing market is still poor, and the market performance differences between different varieties are still large.
Hundreds of gray fabric companies will join forces to raise prices and suspend production
On December 16, hundreds of gray fabric companies will join forces to raise prices and suspend production. In fact, the price increase The reason is very simple, that is, the price of raw materials continues to rise. If the price of gray cloth does not rise, weaving companies will lose money. It is understood that the current price of low-weight products such as pongee and chiffon on the market has basically increased by 0.03-0.05 yuan/meter, while the price of high-weight products such as four-way elastic and stretch cotton has increased by 0.10- 0.20 yuan/meter, the greater the weight, the greater the increase.
Monitoring data shows that since December, the price of polyester filament has continued to rise. For example, the price of FDY150D products has increased from 5,350 yuan/ton to the current 5,800 yuan/ton; POY150D has increased from 5,080 yuan/ton to the current 5,625 yuan/ton; DTY150D has increased from 6,850 yuan/ton to 7,375 yuan/ton.

The increase is generally 0.05-0.01/meter. There is also the latest quotation, it is said that there is a price but no stock.
The price of finished fabrics in Zhongda Textile Business District has increased
On December 18, Dongsheng (Hengwang) Cloth Store in Zhongda Textile Business District in Guangzhou issued a price adjustment notice It said: Due to the rapid rise in raw material prices, in order to alleviate the pressure, it was decided to increase the price of some products by 0.5 to 2 yuan per kilogram starting from December 21.
Dye fees have risen in Zhejiang and Hebei
Recently, power supply has been tight in Hunan and Jiangxi, and restrictions on electricity use have also occurred in Zhejiang, which has aroused widespread concern among local businesses and residents. . Taking Zhejiang as an example, on December 17, a dyeing and finishing company in Jinhua, Zhejiang issued a notice of price adjustment for dyeing fees. Due to power cuts, the company’s production relies entirely on generators to supply the production line. Production costs have increased. Starting from December 17, dyeing fees have increased by 500 yuan. /Ton.
Because this year’s admission is earlier than in previous years In winter, due to the reduction in coal burning, the drop in reservoir water levels, the inability of wind power to effectively generate electricity due to freezing conditions, and the reduction in external power, the power supply situation in many areas is relatively severe. Therefore, industrial electricity use has been restricted recently.
If the temperature drops further in the later period, the power load gap will further expand, and there may be industrial power outages in more areas, causing factories to stop production and limit production. Production companies in many places have stopped production and restricted production for various reasons, which may lead to a reduction in the supply of textiles, etc., which in turn triggers a new round of supply and demand imbalance, leading to a pre-holiday price increase.
Due to the increase in natural gas prices, production costs have increased significantly. Severe LNG gas shortages have occurred in North China, East China, South China, and Northwest China, and downstream transaction prices have soared in one month. Due to the rising cost of production materials, Hebei issued a notice of price adjustment for dyeing fees. Three printing and dyeing factories decided to increase the dyeing fees by 400 yuan/ton starting from December 15th and 16th, mainly involving warp-knitted and weft-knitted fabrics.
Editor’s note: The market needs to wait and see further
During this period, the fabric export market has basically continued the previous downturn. The appreciation of the RMB exchange rate and the continuous rise of domestic raw materials have had a great impact on the receipt of foreign trade orders. On the other hand, export freight prices have risen sharply, and basic fabrics have been more affected. big,It is obvious that the production of some types of fabric orders has been transferred overseas, and orders for low value-added products have faced a devastating blow. Affected by the epidemic, there are high risks in order operations before and after the Chinese New Year. First, textile mills are hesitant to stockpile raw materials in advance to stabilize quotations and reduce the risk of rising raw material prices; second, there are signs of repeated epidemics in Europe and the United States, and the risk of delayed shipments and order cancellations is high. We are in a dilemma, and we still need to wait and see the future market trends.
