Dye demand is inferior to upstream jump price

It is learned that although the prices of upstream intermediates are still rising, with the arrival of the off-season off-season demand, the dye price increase style may begin to shift to caution.

Upstream Status: H acid prices kept rising on the 20th, and were learned from Hubei Chuyuan and Zhejiang Jihua sales personnel that due to the impact of environmental protection, the main manufacturers were limited in production, and H-acid prices jumped by about RMB 15,000/ton recently. Or 10%) to 165,000 yuan/ton.

Although the same high price of 165,000 yuan / ton (the cost is only about 2-3 yuan / ton) such a high price is "inconceivable", but most people in the industry believe that "H acid prices will rise."

Their reason for making the above judgments is mainly because the H-acid supply is limited. In addition to the Jiangsu Mingsheng, a subsidiary of Lantuo's holding company, had to suspend production for a six- to eight-month technical renovation project, other manufacturers are also facing environmental pressure. Just a few days ago, the CCTV news channel also exposed the illegal sewage discharged from the sewage treatment center of the Chemical Park of Naimanqi, Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, and the H acid plant of Zhejiang Longsheng was located in the chemical park.

The downstream gradually entered the off-season. Some large manufacturers have relatively high stock levels. According to a person from a dyeing factory in Shaoxing, the low season of dyeing plants is generally from July to August. Although it is not yet in the off-season, it is also approaching the off-season. “After this, the list has always been It is too late to do it now.

The dyeing factory in Wujiang, Jiangsu Province, said that the overall economic situation is not good, so the printing and dyeing industry will not be so good.

"Although the printing and dyeing fees have been raised before, the rate of increase is not at all comparable to the increase in the price of dyes. Now that the prices are not good, some dye factories even want to lower the cost of dyeing," said the relevant person in the Wujiang Dyeing Factory.

When it comes to the current dye factory dye inventory levels, the above-mentioned Shaoxing dyeing factory told reporters that the dyeing factory where it is larger, so the dye stock levels are high, some expensive, commonly used dye species have six months inventory.

"Smaller factories have lower levels of inventory, and they use a little to buy a little." He said.

However, relevant persons of the above-mentioned Wujiang Dyeing Factory stated that due to the financial capacity and warehouse capacity, dyeing factories are also less likely to accumulate too many dyes. In addition, the shelf life of dyes cannot exceed one year. The dye inventory level of the plant is about two months. .

"As far as I know, some dye factories are now using expensive dyes," he said.
