Blind Expansion Of Post Sequelae Highlights High Dependence On Imports Of Raw Materials

A number of enterprises say that the plight of the regenerative industry is not only unique to the industry, but also the most common problem of primary and regeneration.

Although the original product has a suppressing effect on the regenerated products, but the industry has been developing for many years, the application space of the two industries has been relatively stable. On the whole, the failure of the downstream demand forecast has led to the blind expansion of the industry, which is the main reason for the existing problems in the industry.

Domestic regenerated polyester

It expanded dramatically after 2005.

As of 2013, China's regenerated chemical fiber production capacity is 9 million 760 thousand tons, and the actual production has always stayed at 5 million 300 thousand tons ~540 million tons.

In 2010, the profitability of recycled polyester fiber industry rose, but it lasted for a long time. After 2012, prices began to oscillate all the way down.

On the other hand, the price of raw fiber has been decreasing since 2012, resulting in the closer the price difference between recycled and raw fibers.

Double factors superimpose

The profit space has been compressed repeatedly.

Moreover, regeneration

The situation of raw materials dependence on foreign countries has not been solved.

At the annual international reclaimed polyester conference held annually, the problem of high dependence on imports of recycled polyester materials has been repeatedly mentioned.

At present, domestic regenerated polyester is still relatively high in dependence on imported raw materials. In 2013, China imported 2 million 190 thousand tons of waste PET bottles and 18.39% dependence on imports.

Under the pressure of this market, although recycled fiber enterprises are putting pressure on raw material bottle enterprises, the price reduction space is still limited.

Many enterprises in the interview said that enterprises had already adopted slicing production.

Chen Yingyuan said, now many regenerative enterprises are in the bottom of the polyester chip, scrap bottles have rarely been asked about, the production of the enterprise is already the original polyester fiber.

From the perspective of industry development, the development of recycled polyester industry in China is not long, and the industry is not mature enough. This is also one of the reasons why the industry has been constantly traumatized.

Industry experts believe that the industry is still in the accumulation stage of primitive technology and capital.

The problems exposed in the industry have not been well solved.

China's regenerated polyester industry started late. In the late 80s of last century, it gradually began to buy small production lines from abroad, mainly producing low-grade non-woven fabrics, gloves and yarns. In the 90s of last century, a large number of regenerated bottle flakes were produced, partly replacing the original polyester cotton staple fibers. After 2000, diversified products such as regenerated filament appeared in the industry, and the substitution ability of the original polyester products increased day by day.

However, the low recovery rate of bottle flakes and the two pollution of cleaning to the environment are not yet solved.

In addition, due to the low entry threshold of regenerated polyester industry, uneven level of enterprise technology, excessive energy consumption and poor pollution control, the whole regenerated polyester industry urgently needs to perfect the access mechanism and production environmental protection standard.

Industry experts believe that the Ministry of industry is developing the recycling industry access conditions will standardize the development of the industry, and thus effectively enhance the competitiveness of the entire regenerated polyester industry.
