Recently, a company in Wuhan, Hubei Province issued a holiday notice, saying that in response to the needs of employees in various departments, and in order to give back to the rapid growth of performance in the past three quarters, it has decided to continue to give all employees a happy, peaceful and safe holiday. Vacation arrangements: October 8 We have a holiday from 19:00 to 9:00 on December 31, a total of 85 days.
This notice of a holiday until the end of the year made many people feel dumbfounded. Some people said that the holiday The time is at night, which is equivalent to taking a vacation in your sleep. Some people also say that although it is said that the holiday is due to good performance, is it actually due to low orders or the inability to start work? Will the next step be for the factory to be completely deregistered during a “holiday”? Although it sounds like a joke, this situation is actually not uncommon in recent times. At present, most textile and chemical fiber companies in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have once again experienced power and production restrictions, and companies in Guangdong, Chongqing, Chengdu and other places have also successively issued notices of production suspension and holidays.
In the past four quarters, we have been preparing for a sprint for a hundred days, but now it is It is quite surprising that many companies are “laying down” for the holidays. The “holiday” is brought forward, but it is not a full return home to celebrate the New Year, but a last resort caused by multiple factors such as shutdown and production shutdown, limited start-up, and sluggish downstream orders.
The “dual control” of energy consumption becomes stricter, and the “power restriction order” is upgraded again
8 Since January, under the influence of various factors such as “dual energy consumption control” constraints and high coal prices, many places have successively implemented measures related to power cuts and production cuts. More than 20 provinces, cities and regions across the country have experienced varying degrees of power outages, and more than 30 A listed company announced the suspension of production, saying it would have a major impact on the company. In previous years, chemical companies that were busy working overtime during the National Day holiday announced their holidays early.
The important textile printing and dyeing towns in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have been hit hard. Hundreds of companies have lost power and gas, which is equivalent to 1/3 of the country’s printing and dyeing production capacity.
After the holidays, companies in Xiamen, Fujian, Zhucheng, Shandong, Cixi, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places received notices that a new round of “orderly electricity use” was officially launched. Plans such as “stop for three days” and “limit three for three days” have been released one after another, and it is stipulated that the power consumption of enterprises will be continuously monitored online. For those who fail to stop production and limit power as required, compulsory power outages will be taken and those responsible will be held accountable in accordance with relevant policies.
In addition, Shandong, Guangxi, Ningxia, Qinghai, Henan, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Anhui, etc. Many places have also implemented orderly power consumption and implemented peak-shifting and peak-avoiding power consumption measures. This means that most of China’s companies have been affected by the “double restrictions” and their operating rates have plummeted. Some companies were even required to suspend production for 15-20 days in October, November and December, and to avoid peak production during the rest of the time, with the operating rate falling to less than 30%.
Raw material prices rise, downstream slump
Textile companies lose money every time they make an order!
If the “stop order” and “power rationing order” are both objective factors and the company has to stop production, then due to rising prices of raw materials, upstream shortages and ordering, etc. Suspension of production and holidays caused by excessive pressure on enterprises are subjective wishes.
It is reported that since the epidemic last year, commodity prices have continued to rise, coupled with high oil shocks, coal resource shortages, and natural gas prices hitting a seven-year high, causing the entire chemical fiber industry to Chain goods are tight and prices are rising…
On the one hand, the price of raw materials is soaring and the supply of goods is in short supply. In order to maintain the capital chain, it is impossible to hoard too many goods; on the other hand, even for hand-made goods, The inventory of raw materials here is not yet urgent, but the company’s operating rate has decreased, the number of products produced is limited, and products cannot be shipped on time. The order completion rate is low, the delivery time is extended, the order volume has declined, and the cost pressure cannot be transmitted to downstream. Under the double attack from upstream and downstream, companies lose money on every order they make, and the more they do, the greater the losses. This abnormal situation forces future companies to choose to “lay flat.” </p
