Time: August 30, 2019

From August 28 to 30, the 26th (2019) Annual Meeting of China Spunbond and Meltblown Nonwovens Industry and the 4th Council were held in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province. The conference was sponsored by the Spunbonded Nonwovens Branch of the China Industrial Textiles Industry Association (hereinafter referred to as the "China Industry Association"), and supported by ExxonMobil, Berry International Group, Oerlikon (China) Technology Co., Ltd. and Changzhou area spinning and melting equipment manufacturing enterprises.

Li Lingshen, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation and president of China Industrial Textile Industry Association, Li Guimei, vice president of China Industrial Textile Industry Association, Chen Lidong, president of Spunbond Branch of China Industrial Textile Industry Association, and other industry association leaders, as well as more than 200 guests from universities, scientific research institutes and enterprises attended the meeting. The meeting reviewed and exchanged the innovation and excellence of the spunbonded and meltblown nonwovens industry in 2018 in terms of technological progress, quality improvement, market expansion, scale development, and enterprise management.

Li Lingshen summarized the basic situation of the nonwovens industry in the first half of 2019. He said that in the first half of this year, the output of enterprises above designated size in the nonwovens industry increased by 11.41, and the main business income increased by 6.84, but the total profit fell by 5.91; in terms of exports, although the export volume to the United States dropped by 18.66, the total export volume still maintained a growth of 4.04, with a year-on-year growth of 6.88. Although the development of the industry has shown strong resilience, structural adjustment and industrial upgrading, transformation of growth mode, and cultivation of new competitive advantages are also urgent tasks for the industry in the future. The industry needs to develop around the five development concepts and continue to develop in the direction of improving quality, efficiency and greening products.

Chen Lidong gave a work report at the meeting. He pointed out that in 2018, the operation quality of my country's spunbond industry has steadily improved, and the industrial structure has been further optimized. The total output of spun nonwoven fabrics reached 3.02 million tons, an increase of 5.38 year-on-year. The growth rate is in line with the macro situation and development expectations. There are 65 new spunbond production lines, of which SSS and SMS online composite production lines have increased by nearly 13%, and enterprises are accelerating their development towards large-scale, intensive and high-end, accelerate to meet the market needs of product upgrades and technology upgrades. From the perspective of the terminal application market, the market for medical and health spunbonded materials has strong development momentum, the PET geotextile nonwovens market continues to show new expansion, while the traditional packaging spunbonded cloth market continues to advance steadily.

At the same time, he said that in recent years, the spunbond industry has also made great progress in product research and development and equipment upgrades. Products continue to develop in the direction of lighter, thinner, and higher performance. The backbone equipment companies in the spunbond industry continue to introduce advanced Design concepts, and through the application of advanced technology to promote the development of spunbond equipment in the direction of high production capacity, specialization, greening and intelligence. However, the development of the industry is still faced with structural overcapacity, equipment upgrading, international trade friction, talent team building and other shortcomings and challenges.

Zhao Mingxia, vice president of the Industrial Economic Research Institute of the China Textile Industry Federation, introduced the impact of Sino-US trade frictions on the textile industry and the countermeasures. She pointed out that the essence of Sino-US trade friction is a strategic containment for the purpose of long-term mastery of all-round international discourse power. The tax increase measures implemented by the United States have limited impact on the entire industry chain. In the future, my country's textile industry needs to rationally optimize the industrial layout and tap domestic demand. Market potential to promote industrial transformation and upgrading.
