The Textile Industry Is Seeking Sustainable Development.

As we all know, China is the largest textile and garment producing and exporting country in the world. The low labor cost has made the "made in China" competitive advantage, but in recent years, the status of China's textile industry is gradually being shaken. China textile industry Wang Tiankai, the president of the Federation, attended the first "ten forum" at Guilin in Guangxi 18 days ago. With the change of the external situation in recent years, the development mode of China's textile industry is also changing. The total size of the industry has expanded. But compared with the first ten years of this century, the momentum of growth has significantly weakened, and the total scale growth of China's textile industry has been slowing down.

Data show that in 2013, China's total fiber processing reached 48 million 500 thousand tons, an increase of 17.4% compared with 2010, an annual increase of 5.5%, while the first ten years of this century, that is, 2001-2010 annual average growth rate of 11.7%, the growth rate decreased by 6.2%. The three quarterly report of the 2014 listed companies of textile and garment industry also showed that in the first three quarters of 2014, the growth rate of each sub industry was negatively affected by the sustained slowdown in economic growth and the continued weakening of the consumer market. Home textiles, footwear and casual wear and other sub sectors, there are revenue differentiation, and men's, women's wear, jewelry industry listed companies have declined in revenue.

It is understood that in recent years, the cost of production factors in China's textile industry has been continuously raised, and the per capita wage has increased at an annual rate of over 10%, and the wage level is much higher than that of the developing neighbouring countries. Cotton prices continue to be higher than 30% of the international market, and the cost advantages of the industry in international competition basically cease to exist. In addition, the problem of energy saving and emission reduction is serious, and the industrial layout and resources and environmental carrying capacity are not in harmony. The development of China's textile industry has shifted from high speed to medium speed growth since 2011. New cycle 。

The industry pointed out that China's textile industry in the brand marketing than Europe and the United States, human resources slightly less than Vietnam, Laos and India, has been living in an awkward position. In order to successfully transform China's textile industry, we must break the situation. Implementing sustainable development is an important support for the transformation and upgrading of the textile industry.

During the forum, Cheng Peng, general manager of the world's largest knitted fabric factory of cotton shirt manufacturing and Export Group, agreed. He said that China's textile industry should transform from labor-intensive to knowledge intensive, and use information and knowledge technology to promote the development of productive forces. The era of "low price and low quality" is over. In the future, only high quality, cost-effective products can be more competitive.

The textile and power program (2011~2020) released by China Textile Federation clearly pointed out that we should strive to achieve the four strategic objectives of the textile and technological power, brand power, sustainable development power and talent power in 2020, and we should basically establish a sustainable development mode of low carbon, green and circular economy. Yang Minde, chairman of the board, pointed out at the forum that practicing China's sustainable development is not only the responsibility of the government, but also the responsibility of the society and the responsibility of the enterprise. "Seeking new development mode is urgent for China at present. We believe that China's sustainable development needs to achieve overall harmony through exchanges and coordination in various fields. She said.

Ten, for example, the whole world is indivisible. Whole Every unit, such as man and nature, is interdependent and interdependent. The forum is aimed at thinking about China's sustainable development and exploring a new development model to balance economic growth and human ecology.
