On January 15, 2021, the price of spandex quietly began to increase. In less than two months, the price suddenly increased by 30,000 yuan/ton. wait.
70D specification has increased from 38,800 yuan/ton to 65,000 yuan/ton;
40D specification The price has increased from 39,300 yuan/ton to 65,000 yuan/ton;
30D specification has increased from 47,000 yuan/ton to 75,000 yuan/ton;
20D specification has increased from 49,000 yuan/ton to 83,000 yuan/ton;
Of course, textile people had no choice but to accept the early increases. Prices began to fall in early March. At the lowest, the price of 20D specifications dropped by 3,000 yuan/ton compared with the previous period. , 40D dropped by 2,000 yuan/ton, and 70D dropped by 2,500 yuan/ton.
However, the wave of price cuts did not last long. The price of spandex, which had been stable for a month, began to fluctuate again. The price increase started in mid-April again. As of Today:
20D spandex price is 85,500 yuan/ton, an increase of 2,500 yuan/ton from the previous period;
The price of 30D spandex is 75,000 yuan/ton, which remains stable compared with the previous period;
The price of 40D spandex is 74,000 yuan/ton, which is 1,000 yuan/ton lower than the previous period. ;
The price of 70D spandex is 63,500 yuan/ton, a decrease of 1,500 yuan/ton from the previous period;
According to the above prices, the prices of some specifications have actually dropped compared with the previous period. However, it is obvious that with the popularity of four-sided bullets in the market, price increases in the future are inevitable.
They are also elastic materials, but T8 and T400 are facing price drops!
The best-selling varieties in the market since the beginning of the year are basically occupied by elastic fabrics, and elastic fabrics are divided into two types, non-spandex and spandex-containing ones. , those T8 and T400 fabrics that do not contain spandex do not seem to be as popular as four-way elastic, and the price of their raw materials has also dropped significantly.
“The price of T400 raw materials has not been very good recently. It is now only 14,500 yuan/ton, which is about 3,500-4,000 yuan/ton different from the highest price this year. And There has been a downward trend recently and it has not stabilized yet. Some PBT chip factories are raising prices by 500 yuan, but T400 factories have not kept up.” said a salesman from a raw material factory.
The market situation is also the same. Now that the off-season is approaching, stretch fabrics are also becoming more popular. The overall market situation is not optimistic, and many weaving manufacturers have no profits to make, and have even reached a loss-making situation.
T8, T400 and other gray fabrics use a large amount of this kind of raw materials, unlike the spandex raw materials that are rich in four-way elastic, which is only 10% So the elastic fabrics without spandex are not welcomed by the market, which will directly affect the price of the raw materials. Even if the gray fabrics containing spandex raw materials are not popular, it will not affect the price of spandex raw materials.
Elastic fabrics will become the mainstream of the market, and spandex raw materials will continue to rise
This year’s products containing spandex Four-way elastic is becoming more and more popular in the market. When I visited companies some time ago, almost all textile bosses said that elastic fabric is the darling of the market. Not only that, during the epidemic last year, elastic fabrics also flourished in the market.
“Our factory currently produces more stretch fabrics such as four-way elastic. Nowadays, the mainstream of the market is elastic fabrics, and imitation silk is no longer suitable. We mainly rely on elastic fabrics.” said a textile boss who specializes in imitation silk.
Nowadays, manufacturers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are more or less beginning to come into contact with elastic fabrics. According to the current market trend, elastic fabrics are about to become the most popular fabrics in the past two years. It is the mainstream product in the market, and some imitation silk fabrics with old varieties and no superior conditions are about to be eliminated by society.
It is precisely because of this that the price of spandex raw materials can rise so unscrupulously , I believe that spandex will continue to rise in the near future, and the situation we may face in the future will be that the price will rise by 10,000, and the price will fall by 1,000. What’s even more troublesome is that spandex raw materials have a small production capacity and cannot be stored for a long time. Even if you want to stock up, you can’t. This is also one of the main factors causing his price increase.
In general, many textile bosses are also bearish on the increase in spandex prices. After all, as long as the demand is there, raw materials will increase and gray fabrics will naturally increase. It can go up, and you can still make money.
