Printing and dyeing elimination of backward production capacity for textile opportunities

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a notice to make a request for the completion of the elimination plan for 2015 and the 13th Five-Year Plan.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology requires that efforts should be made to innovate ideas and methods. First, continue to phase out the backward production capacity defined in the existing catalogue; second, eliminate outdated production capacity such as environmental protection, energy consumption, etc.; and third, promote structural adjustment and accelerate the withdrawal of excess production capacity. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology requires the establishment of a 2015 target plan for 15 key industries such as tanning, papermaking, printing and dyeing in accordance with the elimination of backward production capacity tasks in the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period.

In addition, in conjunction with environmental protection, energy consumption, and other standards implementation and structural adjustment promotion, key industries are formulated, in particular to eliminate the contradiction of overcapacity and the 13th five-year elimination targets for tanning, papermaking, printing and dyeing industries involved in atmospheric pollution prevention and prevention. Goal phase goals by 2017.

Printing and dyeing is a production process in the textile industry with high pollution emission, energy consumption and water consumption. Printing and dyeing companies are mostly concentrated in the densely populated eastern coastal areas, in order to improve the overall level of the textile industry, while improving and reducing the use of backward equipment for the urban environment. As a result of pollution, China's printing and dyeing companies need to eliminate backward production capacity. Eliminating outdated production capacity that eliminates outdated printing and dyeing equipment will also bring opportunities and challenges to China's printing and dyeing industry.

Eliminating Obsolescence and Promoting High-end Process Li Yi, Vice President of the China Textile Machinery and Equipment Industry Association, said: “Eliminating outdated production capacity in the printing and dyeing industry will create more market space for advanced equipment and encourage many domestic and overseas low-end equipment manufacturers to carry out product structure. Adjustments, and ultimately accelerate the development of the entire printing and dyeing industry." Li Yi pointed out that compared with the previous printing and dyeing equipment, the performance is now more advanced, energy-saving and environmentally friendly equipment has become the mainstream market.

For example, dyeing equipment is more focused on low bath ratios and airflow dyeing machines will be more popular. After the finishing equipment is more intelligent, such as online fault diagnosis and online control, it can accurately weigh, dispense additives and other raw materials, and effectively reduce the equipment failure rate, to provide users with uninterrupted production to provide protection. In addition, the use of advanced printing and dyeing equipment also encourage enterprises to pay more attention to improve production processes and technology, companies look at the perspective of the entire production process from energy saving features, the whole industry to achieve green production chain.

Bao Dequan, general manager of Jiangsu SEG Textile Machinery Co., Ltd., believes that eliminating outdated printing and dyeing capacity is a favorable policy for China's printing and dyeing industry. He said: "For many companies, eliminating backward production capacity can avoid the viciousness of 'fighting prices' in the market. Competition has effectively solved the problem of insufficient order volume for enterprises, protected the interests of high-quality enterprises, and improved profitability, and at the same time, it can also change the low-end and high-volume-based low-end products that have been used in the global printing and dyeing industry before. The image promotes the rapid transformation and upgrading of the company, the promotion of innovation, the emphasis on R&D and innovation capabilities, the increase in a variety of products that meet market demands, and the development of the green industry.”

It is also a challenge and the need to eliminate backward production capacity for the development of printing and dyeing equipment manufacturers to bring high-end, green development opportunities at the same time, will inevitably bring many challenges to many low-end SMEs. Xu Jiaming, general manager of Fujian Jinjiang Juwang Printing and Dyeing Machinery Co., Ltd., said: “The elimination of backward production capacity will encourage companies to pay more attention to product performance, but it will also lead to polarization between printing and dyeing companies and equipment manufacturing companies.” He believes that there is a large scale of strength. Enterprises will continue to develop new products that are advanced, environmentally friendly, and energy-saving; the increase in the cost of domestic production equipment will inevitably accelerate the transfer of low-end and middle-end industries to Southeast Asian countries and regions. Many small and medium-sized enterprises that are taking the low-end route must also be closed down without operating. Case.

However, rather than eliminating the passive transformation brought about by the elimination of backward production capacity, Chu Jianan, chairman of Xi'an Degao Electromechanical Group, believes that improving the level of equipment is an inevitable way for the company's sustainable development. Nowadays, unlike the many years ago, in order to save costs, semi-automated or even manual equipment, domestic textile manufacturers are now faced with more difficulties in attracting people.

Some companies have sufficient orders but the workers are not enough and the production line cannot start. Chu Jianan said: "This situation has made textile companies have to use more computer operations to reduce manual labor, thereby reducing production costs. This also prompted equipment manufacturers to upgrade their products to achieve automation, energy saving, otherwise, even if not because of backward production capacity And when they are eliminated, they will also face the fate of being eliminated in the future.” In addition, the transfer of middle and low-end global industries to Southeast Asian countries and other countries and regions will inevitably make the domestic low-end roads more and more difficult, so the state introduced the policy Eliminating outdated production capacity is an expedient measure to help companies develop in a short period of time, and the long-term plan will inevitably require companies to increase product competitiveness and consciously step out of high-end development.

SMEs in many ways to deal with competition from the point of view of market competition, the strength of large enterprises seem to be able to develop better, and because of the cost advantages of the product can even monopolize the market, while SMEs are relatively more difficult. However, Li Yi believes that in the current market environment, small and medium-sized enterprises may be able to achieve better development. Capacity to fight, fight technology is clearly not favorable way, SMEs can then cooperate, such as digital surveillance technology continuous dyeing and printing equipment and other large enterprises through the development of a number of market demand for new products.

At the same time, Chu Jian-an believes that while companies insist on R&D investment and technological transformation, they must also strive to break through the "ceiling" of the company's development. He pointed out that Xi'an Degao Electromechanical Group is not blindly expanding its production capacity. The company’s development plan for the next five years is to provide technical services and achieve a 1:1 income from product sales. The company will start with the concept of establishing a 4S shop for equipment, providing product accessories, regular maintenance services, and post-renovation services for different equipment companies. It may even develop into a equipment leasing company later; in addition, the company can also use this as a platform for professional and technical personnel. Conduct training and provide the most advanced technology for different companies by integrating the best technicians. By doing a good job of developing the company's business, and using Internet thinking and tools to save more companies.

We must also strengthen the supervision of social responsibility. In the end, under the policy of lagging behind the country's backward production capacity, whether an enterprise can actually eliminate backward production capacity is crucial for industrial development and environmental protection.

Li Yi believes that some phenomena in the elimination of backwardness must be avoided. For instance, individual companies are not eliminated, but they shift backward production capacity to regions where the relevant policies are less stringent to continue production. Only by dispelling luck and improving their sense of social responsibility can companies truly prevent this phenomenon from happening.

Bao Dequan also pointed out that while setting up the concept of green production, the government departments must also strengthen supervision to prevent companies from “guessing guerrillas” and “discharging” and truly strengthen and standardize the determination to eliminate backward production capacity.
