China'S Textile Industry Is Facing A Shortage Of Raw Materials And Wool Products Will Become Increasingly Expensive.

< p > China has become the largest fiber producing and processing country in the world, and < a target= "_blank" href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/" > textile < /a > a target= "_blank" href= "_blank" > clothing > trade > country. The annual export of textile garments is 262 billion 600 million US dollars, accounting for 36% of the global textile and clothing trade volume, of which 102 billion 400 million of textile exports and 160 billion 200 million of clothing exports.

But there is a long-term shortage of raw materials.

< p > according to Gao Yong, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation, in 2012, the textile processing volume of China's textile industry was about about 45000000 tons, accounting for more than 50% of the world's fiber processing volume, of which natural fiber was about 10 million tons, and chemical fiber production had reached 37 million tons.

However, the shortage of raw materials has long been a problem. Linen is mainly imported from Europe, and silk, wool, cashmere and so on are also partly imported.

"I even joke that after that, wool and cashmere products are becoming more and more expensive and more expensive.

Cotton spinning products also have this trend, but the time should be very long.

< p > cotton is particularly important in textile materials. China consumes about 40% of the world's total consumption in 2011/2012.

However, influenced by factors such as planting area, labor cost and production efficiency, China's cotton output is basically flat. In order to meet the development requirements of textile enterprises, millions of tons of cotton are imported from abroad every year.

Since 2011, the high price of domestic and foreign cotton has seriously restricted the survival and development of China's textile enterprises, especially cotton textile enterprises.

At the same time, imports of cotton yarn are also increasing year by year.

In 2012, China imported 1 million 530 thousand tons of cotton yarn and exported 450 thousand tons.

< p > Gao Yong said that due to the influence of raw material cotton, many enterprises increased the development and use of super cotton imitation and non cotton fiber. The impact of international crude oil price on the chemical fiber staple in non cotton fiber has been depressed since the end of September 2011, and the trend is difficult to predict.

"Textile industry urgently needs to improve the scale of chemical fiber production to meet the growing demand of consumers. Natural fiber is difficult to meet the demand and can only be replaced by chemical fiber."

< p > to make more efficient use of various textile materials, increase product development efforts, and open up new consumer markets.

The China Textile Industry Federation announced recently that it will convene the China International Textile raw materials market conference in Nanjing on June 3~4, to help enterprises grasp the supply and demand relationship of raw materials in the current market situation, increase product development efforts, and open up new consumer markets.
