my country's textile industry is moving steadily towards high-quality development

Positive growth of 9.6%! In 2020, my country's textile and garment industry exported a total of US$291.22 billion, a year-on-year increase of 9.6%, driving a 1% increase in national exports of goods.

　　 The stable release of export competitiveness is the epitome of the in-depth adjustment and improvement of the development quality of my country's textile industry. A few days ago, at the 15th annual meeting of the China Textile Roundtable Forum hosted by the China National Textile and Apparel Council, Gao Yong, party secretary and secretary-general of the China National Textile and Apparel Council, stated that despite the impact of the epidemic, the total textile industry has declined year-on-year. Thanks to the advantages of online sales, intelligent manufacturing and stable supply chain of the industrial chain, there is still no lack of dazzling performance in the operation of the textile industry——

"Rise"-from the perspective of growth rate, from January to November last year, the growth rate of industrial added value of textile enterprises above designated size rebounded by 13.4, 3.6 and 1.5 percentage points from the first quarter, the first half of the year and the first three quarters respectively; from the perspective of profit, From January to November last year, the planned corporate sales profit rate was 4.3%, which was not only a significant improvement from the 2.2% level at the end of February, but also an increase of 0.1 percentage point from the same period last year.

　　"Warm"——Thanks to the rise of online sales, the domestic demand market in my country's textile industry has shown an obvious recovery trend in the second half of last year. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the year-on-year decline in retail sales of clothing, shoes, hats, needles and textiles of units above designated size gradually narrowed from more than 30% at the beginning of the year to 7.9% in the previous November.

　　 "Increase"-under the pulling effect of anti-epidemic materials such as masks and protective clothing, the export competitiveness of my country's textiles has been steadily released, and the export scale is close to the industry's historical best level set in 2014.

According to Gao Yong, from the perspective of scale, my country’s total fiber processing currently accounts for about 50% of the world’s total, chemical fiber output accounts for about 70%, and total exports account for about 1/3. From the perspective of comprehensive capabilities, my country’s textile industry chain starts from categories , Output quality, in terms of production efficiency, independent technology and equipment, etc., generally reach the international advanced or leading level. The report "Study on the Strategy of Promoting the Building of a Manufacturing Power towards 2035" issued by the Chinese Academy of Engineering not long ago shows that the textile industry has become one of my country's advanced industries in the world.

　　 How can the textile industry develop with high quality during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period? Gao Yong said that the key is to strengthen independent innovation of cutting-edge technology, brand and fashion soft power, green development leadership, international supply chain control capabilities, etc., strengthen the advantages of the manufacturing system, and solve the shortcomings of the industrial chain supply chain.

"The textile industry should realize the upgrade from'made' to'made fine', and finally to'made well', and truly realize precision manufacturing, green manufacturing, and intelligent manufacturing." Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, President of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics Shan Zhongde believes that we should continue to promote the development of intelligent high-quality textile equipment, improve efficiency, performance and digitalization, and truly realize automatic perception, intelligent decision-making, and automatic execution. At the same time, we should actively develop service-oriented textile manufacturing and promote personalized customized production. mode.

　　 Manufacturing is more "green", not only recycling waste products, but also energy saving and carbon reduction in the production process. "In the past, the textile industry was more concerned about end-of-pipe pollution control. Next, we will promote the whole process control and carry out targeted and precise pollution control." said Wen Zongguo, a professor at the School of Environment of Tsinghua University.

　　 Textile products are more "excellent", strengthen the research and development of fine processing technology for the whole industry chain, and expand the market with high-end products. "We should integrate new materials, new technologies and the upgrading trend of domestic consumption, develop high-end textile products with high comfort, easy care, antibacterial health and other multi-functions, continuously improve quality and technological added value, and open up new market demands. "Gao Yong said.
