< p > 2012, < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > chemical fiber industry < /a > fell to the bottom of the boom, and the whole industry was in a loss situation.

With the basic release of new capacity and the resumption of downstream demand, the chemical fiber industry in 2013 is expected to usher in a recovery period.

The main performance of the Australian viscose staple fiber Australia 2012 performance forecast has turned to profitability, indicating that some of the subdivision varieties are now showing signs of improvement.

The recent rise in polyester prices has also proved the industry's recovery momentum.

In addition, the following new capacity and less industrial use of chemical fiber increased, the spandex industry deserves attention.

< p > at present, domestic a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_f.asp" > spandex < /a > production capacity is about 500 thousand tons. In the past two years, the new capacity has been put into operation very fast, with an average annual growth of about 15%, while the actual demand is only about 400 thousand tons, and the supply exceeds 20%.

In recent three years, the price of mainstream varieties of spandex fell from the high point of 100 thousand yuan to the latest 45 thousand yuan, reaching 55%.

But spandex's new capacity has been put into operation, and its subsequent capacity is about 30 thousand tons, less than 6% of the total capacity.

< p > the overall inventory of the industry is low, plus < a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > cotton price < /a > is relatively high under the support of purchasing and storage policy, resulting in multiple positive factors such as the recovery of alternative demand, so the spandex boom can be improved.

In addition, enterprises in the industry will be able to limit production and protect their prices through parking inspection and maintenance.

< p > Huafeng spandex and Taihe new materials, as the leading enterprises in the industry, have spandex production capacity of 57 thousand tons and 37 thousand tons respectively.

Although spandex business in the short term supply exceeds demand, boom degree is not high, the average operating rate of the industry is about 60% ~ 70%, but the industry leading enterprises at present the rate of opening up to maintain stable above 90%, better than the average level.

Leading enterprises take the strategy of maintaining higher operating rate and expanding market share in the low period of the industry, forcing small spandex producers to make a continuous loss and withdraw, and then enjoy the profit increase brought by the economic recovery and new demand.
