On April 15th, the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association held an analysis meeting on the economic operation of the chemical fiber industry in the first quarter of 2022. Since 2022, the chemical fiber industry has encountered multiple tests such as soaring oil prices, frequent epidemics, weakened demand, and blocked logistics. The operating pressure of the industry has increased significantly. In the first quarter, the industry generally showed the operation characteristics of "stability with worry". According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, the output of chemical fiber from January to February was 10.154 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 3.01%; the operating income was 147.75 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.6%; the total profit was 4.51 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 32.7%. Entering March, under the circumstances of high cost and weak demand, the logistics caused by the superimposed epidemic has been hindered, chemical fiber inventory has gradually accumulated to a high level, the operating rate of the industry has declined, and the profit margin and processing range have been further compressed. Up to now, some enterprises have been in losses state. In the face of the above problems, China Chemical Fiber Association calls on industry enterprises to make concerted efforts and strengthen their confidence. On the basis of strengthening the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, ensure stable and orderly production and life, and jointly promote the stable and healthy development of the industry. Meanwhile, the following recommendations are made.

1. Carry out industry self-discipline to prevent operational risks

Under the background of high inventory and low profit, and facing the high uncertainty of oil price and the risk of outflow of textile and clothing orders, it is recommended that chemical fiber enterprises strengthen industry exchanges and cooperation, appropriately reduce the burden and reduce production synchronously. Lord, avoid price fluctuations and ineffective vicious competition. In addition, it is necessary to strictly control accounts receivable to ensure the safety of the cash flow capital chain.

2. Pay attention to environmental changes and policy trends, and formulate coping strategies

Affected by the epidemic, major domestic production areas and markets have been affected to varying degrees, especially the flow of people and logistics. It is recommended that enterprises cooperate with local epidemic prevention requirements, develop markets nearby, reduce the radius of procurement and sales, and use the "small circulation" within provinces and regions with relatively small logistics restrictions to ease sales pressure and reduce logistics costs. At the same time, strengthen online communication and communication with overseas customers, and formulate special overseas customer maintenance and service plans to avoid customer loss after the epidemic.

3. In the face of uncertainty, do the sure thing

The special period is also the best time to practice "internal strength". In the face of uncertainty, do what you are sure of, and do your best "self": first, make a fuss about energy saving and consumption reduction, reduce costs and increase efficiency; Intelligent construction; the third is to actively seek breakthroughs and adjustments in product innovation to improve the added value of products; the fourth is to comprehensively improve the level of production management, create efficient and agile operation capabilities, and help reduce costs and increase efficiency; long-term development strategy.

Firm confidence to overcome difficulties, keep the clouds open and see the moon.

The fundamentals of China's economic resilience and long-term improvement will not change. The advantage of China's textile industry in having the world's most complete and advanced industrial chain supporting system has not changed. The current industry difficulties are temporary, and the logistics link has shown signs of improvement. On April 7, the Ministry of Transport convened a meeting of the logistics guarantee coordination working mechanism to require freight logistics to be smooth and smooth, and put forward three directional requirements for national circulation of passes, unification of regional policies, and interconnection and sharing of management and control information; on April 10, the "State Council" The Circular of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism for Responding to the Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia Epidemic on Effectively Doing a Good Job in Keeping Freight and Logistics Safe and Smooth was released; in recent days, a series of more specific policy notices and requirements have been released one after another. It is believed that with the implementation of the policy, the problem of transportation difficulties will be alleviated, the industrial chain will resume normal flow, and the terminal demand that was suppressed in the early stage will be released. , the operation of the chemical fiber industry is expected to gradually get out of the predicament, appearing an upward turning point.
