Last week (August 1-7), viscose staple fiber operated smoothly and the price was stable. The downstream demand is low, and the manufacturers actively support the price, showing a situation where there is a price but no market., Some viscose staple fiber factories adopt the speed reduction production method to alleviate the contradiction between the current market downturn and the rising inventory, and at the same time delay their own pulp inventory consumption. The cotton yarn price of downstream people fell, the popularity was low, and the transaction was light.

Price trend of viscose staple fiber

According to the price monitoring of the business agency, the price of viscose staple fiber was stable last week. As of August 7, 2022, the ex factory price of 1.2D * 38mm viscose staple fiber in China was 15400 yuan / ton, which was the same as the upper price. The price of human cotton yarn fell, and the average ex factory price (30s, ring spinning, first-class goods) was 18766 yuan / ton, with a price drop of 100 yuan / ton.

From the analysis of the reasons, the cost support is not reduced, the market price of raw material dissolving pulp is high, and the production cost of viscose staple fiber is generally maintained at a high level. However, the downstream demand for cotton yarn is weak, showing a situation of price without market. The factory inventory increases, the factory is cautious, and the desire to stabilize the price is strong.

Future forecast

The cost pressure is not reduced, and it is difficult for viscose staple fiber factories to make concessions. However, the textile terminal demand continues to be flat, the trading volume is always general, and the downstream order receiving volume is always general. The whole viscose staple fiber industry chain has entered a stalemate. Viscose staple fiber shows a situation of price but no market, and the factory inventory increases. Analysts of business society predict that the price of viscose staple fiber will face downward pressure.
