Cotton Textiles Southeast Asia International Trade

In 2011, the growth of China's cotton textile trade volume declined, and the number was negative.

With the market demand of developed economies still sluggish and the competitiveness of textiles in Southeast Asian countries constantly emerging, the import and export situation of cotton textiles in China in 2012 has become the focus of attention at home and abroad.

Review: the negative growth trend of export has not changed.

Imports of cotton gauze increased and exports declined.

Customs data show that in the first two months of 2012, China imported 942 thousand tons of cotton, an increase of 64% over the same period last year, an increase over the same period last year.

Cotton yarn imports totaled 195 thousand tons, an increase of 26.2% over the same period, 53 thousand tons of exports, a decrease of 19.3% over the same period last year, and 108 million tons of imported cotton fabrics, an increase of 7.6% over the previous year, and 970 million meters of exports, a decrease of 4.8% over the same period last year.

Cotton textile imports grew faster and exports declined significantly.

On the one hand, it reflects the international market demand is still depressed, exports are blocked, on the other hand, mainly affected by domestic high priced cotton, China's cotton textile export price advantage has been continuously weakened, and the domestic import of international cotton gauze will be enhanced.

From the price point of view, domestic and foreign cotton prices are still weak and downward. Under the condition of insufficient market demand, the price of downstream textile products is weak, and the import and export price of cotton gauze is negative growth.

International Trade

The negative growth trend of cotton textile exports has not changed since last year. Last year, the export of cotton yarn and cotton fabric decreased by 18.7% and 10.6% compared with the same period last year. In the lower reaches, China's exports of cotton bedding decreased by 21.1% compared with the same period last year.

Last year, the volume of trade in cotton textiles between China's mainland and the main import and export markets declined.

The market share of cotton textiles in developed economies in Europe, America and Japan has decreased.

Import demand for raw materials and gauze is outstanding.

Since December 2010, the domestic and foreign cotton price inversion pattern has been extended to last June, and the international cotton price has been higher than the domestic 8600 yuan / ton, reaching the maximum price difference when upside down.

With the rapid fall of international cotton prices and the continuous increase of labor cost and production factor cost in China, the domestic cotton price is higher than that of the international market in late 6 months of 2011, and the spread of price gradually expands, and the maximum price difference is more than 4000 yuan / ton.

(see later table)

The expansion of raw material prices at home and abroad has brought high cost raw material pressure to China's cotton textile enterprises, and the number of enterprise orders has dropped sharply. Small and medium-sized enterprises have limited production, reduced production or even shut down due to lack of orders.

At the same time, China's cotton textiles do not have the price competitive advantage in the middle and low end market. Southeast Asian countries compete with China for international market share with their raw materials and processing cost advantages.

Domestic high cotton prices make China's cotton business demand for international cotton urgently. However, restricted by quotas, enterprises will import imported cotton to import international cotton yarn. Therefore, the demand of China's textile enterprises for middle and low end cotton gauze is mostly imported.

Outlook: import and export will present a new pattern.

The proportion of non cotton fabrics will be increased.

According to the needs of countries to revitalize the economy, people's incomes continue to increase, consumption of clothing and home textiles will increase, the total amount of textile fiber processing will continue to grow, and the corresponding cotton consumption will also increase.

In addition, the emergence of high price cotton can produce alternative products. The application of non cotton fiber will become the development trend of textile products in the future, and the proportion of cotton products will be reduced.

Optimizing and enriching the structure of China's cotton textile products to meet the needs of different markets has always been the focus of our cotton textile industry. By reducing costs, increasing technology content and increasing the export of high-end products, we will participate in international competition with quality products.

Diversification of import and export markets.

From 1995 to 2011, the import and export volume of China's cotton yarn has always been in deficit, and the unit price of imports is lower than that of exports.

In 2011, the difference in quantity was 512 thousand tons, and there was still a gap in China's production yarn. The trade surplus of China's cotton fabrics increased year by year, and the unit price of imports was higher than that of export. Raising the grades and types of cotton fabrics in China is the focus of future development.

Hongkong, China, ASEAN, the United States, Japan and the European Union are the mainland of China.

Cotton textiles

The main export markets are Japan, Korea, ASEAN and China's Hongkong and Taiwan.

With the continuous progress and development of the cotton textile industry in various countries, the import and export market of China's cotton textiles has taken on a new pattern, the market is more diversified, and gradually changing to meet the needs of the international high-end market and emerging market.

Southeast Asia

The international competitiveness of textiles has risen.

As a labor-intensive industry to increase employment and expand exports, the textile industry has developed rapidly in Southeast Asian countries. With the advantages of local resources and relatively cheap cost, the textile industry has a better development environment.

With the support of the government, local enterprises enjoy various preferential policies.

Based on this, some cotton textile enterprises in China will turn their attention to Southeast Asian countries and have the trend of pferring international capacity. Enterprises can enjoy preferential tax policies for imported raw materials in addition to some Southeast Asian countries.

With the rising domestic cost and the manufacturing advantages of Southeast Asian countries, the number of cotton textile production pfer will increase gradually.
