Recently, it seems that the best-selling product in the market is still the elastic fabric that most textile bosses call it. Even the best-selling imitation silk products in season have mediocre sales. However, Speaking of stretch fabrics, T8, one of the Internet celebrity products in recent years, will definitely come to mind, but this type of fabric has rarely been mentioned since the start of the project.
Is the T8 fabric cold? Raw materials are sold at a loss
“The market is not good, and T8 is not good either. Now many chemical fiber factories are selling goods.” A textile boss said.
It is understood that the normal price of 150DT8 raw materials for this dumping manufacturer is 24,000 yuan. / ton, the cost price is 20,000 yuan / ton, and the current selling price is 17,000 yuan / ton.
It can be seen from the selling of raw materials below the cost price that T8 products have been very difficult to sell in the market recently. Indeed, when textile bosses talk about hot When selling products, they often only say that four-sided elastic products have been hot selling recently, and even T400 is not often mentioned.
“T8 fabrics are not popular in the market during this period. The best-selling products now are basically order-based products, which are regular market varieties, such as In fact, products like T8 have not yet reached the peak of sales, and the order volume is very small. Customers now basically receive thinner spring clothing fabrics.” A textile boss in Shengze area said.
T8 fabric has always been a popular fabric in the market in the past two years. The popularity of T400 is obvious to all textile bosses. Compared with the upgraded version of T8, It is also loved by the market. In the past few years, due to factors such as immature production technology and dyeing skills, T8 fabrics have not been fully recognized by the market. However, the T8 trend has become popular in the entire textile market since the year before last. In addition, in recent years The outstanding performance of elastic fabrics, such as T400 and T8, which do not contain spandex, are more popular in the market.
However, this year may be because the demand has not fully recovered after the epidemic. There are only a few hot-selling fabrics, and the T8 raw material has fallen to this level compared with when it first started. A surge in raw materials has something to do with it.
Raw material prices are rising fast and falling fast
The earliest price of T8 raw materials is actually It is not very high, and the selling price is less than 20,000 yuan/ton. However, due to the epidemic last year, the demand for T8 raw materials was greatly reduced. It once fell to 15,000 yuan/ton. The epidemic began to improve at the end of last year, and with the placement of orders, it happened After the first price increase this year, when construction started this year, the price of raw materials soared again. T8 raw materials also rose again following this price increase. Some time ago, the highest price could reach 25,000 yuan/ton.
Although T8 fabric can be used as spring windbreaker fabric, it is more Suitable for the production of autumn and winter down jacket fabrics, the demand during this period is not very large. Coupled with two crazy price increases, chemical fiber factories have difficulty digesting inventory and can only sell low-priced raw materials at a loss.
It’s not that T8 fabric is no longer popular, it’s just that this period is not the best time for it. The previous article mentioned a Duole Cotton, as an upgraded version of cool silk cotton, contains T8 raw materials. Perhaps after the market becomes familiar with this fabric, T8 raw materials will be more popular again. However, April is almost over, and the sales of spring clothing fabrics The time will gradually fade away, and it may not be until the second half of the year that hot sales begin again.
Will the market situation get better?
According to the current situation, it may be difficult for the market to usher in another good market in the near future. Textile bosses in the market also have different opinions on whether the market is good or bad. Some said that there may be a peak season like last October in the future, while others said that the market will still be difficult this year.
Of course, the editor must maintain a neutral attitude here. After all, the market is unpredictable now. A textile boss once said: “The sales volume of summer clothing fabrics this year is really high.” It’s very average, I feel like everyone doesn’t wear clothes in summer.” Logically speaking, spring and summer fabrics should be hot-selling at the same time, but now the best-selling varieties are almost all spring fabrics, which I also find very strange, so in this situation now Under such circumstances, it is possible that summer clothing fabrics such as imitation silk will suddenly become popular in May.
In fact, the improvement of the situation still depends on the epidemic control situation in overseas countries. After all, foreign trade occupies a great advantage in the domestic textile market, and the foreign epidemic situation is under control. , the demand has naturally increased, are you still worried about lack of orders?
