In the past half month, there have been a lot of calls in the printing and dyeing market about a holiday. Earlier, dyeing factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang issued early holiday notices due to various factors. Whether it was the suspension of steam supply to thermal power plants or the high cost pressure caused by polarization, these were important factors affecting the market trend of printing and dyeing factories. At present, news of the second wave of holidays has come from Zhejiang.
According to the holiday schedule, some Zhejiang printing and dyeing companies have a holiday. Among them, some textile companies have already taken a holiday on January 3, 2022, while some printing and dyeing companies have a holiday scheduled for mid-January 2022. The news of this holiday has basically determined the holiday node for most dyeing factories. After mid-January, most dyeing factories will end production and start the Spring Festival holiday.
The holiday is just around the corner, but more and more gray fabrics are piling up
Current dyeing factory
It’s simply a race against time!
According to textile related people from various places, printing and dyeing companies are generally busy before the Spring Festival, and orders are being rushed. Many factories have already announced the Spring Festival holiday time. Now dyeing factories are simply racing against time.
Every year when the Spring Festival is approaching, printing and dyeing factories will experience a small peak in production. We know that most printing and dyeing factories have a longer holiday, which lasts for 20-25 days. According to visits and recent holiday notices from dyeing factories, although the holiday time for printing and dyeing companies is not much different from previous years, the market has been treacherous and unpredictable since 2021, with environmental protection production restrictions and skyrocketing raw material prices. Etc., especially the main costs of printing and dyeing come from dyes, steam, natural gas, and electricity. After many price increases, printing and dyeing companies have also raised prices many times. Some companies are worried that the prices of related products will rise again after the Spring Festival, so they have made early stockings of related products.
In addition, due to the impact of the epidemic, orders from dyeing factories this year have declined slightly compared with previous years. As the Spring Festival approaches, some factories have also stopped stocking up. Because of this, the terminal was forced to release part of the orders. As the orders were partially released, all the sudden orders were poured into the dyeing factory, which was originally relatively dull. At this time, there were orders, and the printing and dyeing factory, especially the salesmen, were unwilling to do so. Give up this opportunity, and at the same time, many trading companies choose to rush out a batch of goods before the year, and with the approaching holiday time, they are caught off guard and inevitably accumulate more goods.
Dyeing factory production at the end of the year and the beginning of the year is a torment for both dyeing factories and customers. Dyeing factories have to face the double blow of staff loss and customer reminders; customers have to face possible delivery delays of orders and rush for goods. Possible quality problems. But in any case, any difficulties under the epidemic seem less important in the face of orders and profits.
The small peak of dyeing factory orders will gradually end in 10 days
Pay attention to the Spring Festival weaving holiday and polyester production reduction and suspension plans
In fact, the news of the holiday will inevitably bring about a certain amount of orders. During the long holiday, some non-local textile workers, especially those whose hometowns are far away, may have returned home. Even if the factory resumes production, it will be difficult to produce at full capacity; on the other hand, Many textile companies will suspend production and take holidays in January, leaving little time for printing and dyeing production. It is obviously unrealistic to expect a large backlog of orders to be completed in just over half a month. However, it is understood that as these new orders are all transacted around the first ten days of the year, most textile companies do not have many urgent orders on hand to execute. Many companies also consider product quality problems caused by rushing goods last year and postpone delivery until the Spring Festival. back.
It has also been found from the market that the operating rate of looms has been declining recently, but not significantly. It can be seen that the market has not started a concentrated holiday. As the first holiday in mid-January approaches, it is estimated that many manufacturers will With production suspended and holidays, market openings will further decline. This small peak of orders will gradually come to an end. With the decline in domestic weaving operations, including the gradual stocking up of early raw material purchases, although the contradiction between supply and demand has eased compared with previous years, the price of the entire industry chain, including polyester, is still likely to be suppressed in the later period. At the end of the year, we should focus on the implementation of the plan to reduce factory shutdowns during the Spring Festival.
Affected by the epidemic, the orders of many textile companies have shrunk rapidly since the second half of last year, resulting in the market having been in an era of “more monks and less rice”. Therefore, even if there is a tailwind in orders at the end of the year, there is still a certain gap in the overall market order volume compared with previous years. . Most companies are still looking forward to the market situation after the Spring Festival, but the rebound of the epidemic at home and abroad, the appreciation of the RMB, and the increase in raw material prices are still “bombs” in the peak season!
