Developmental status of China's dyeing and weaving process:

China is a big country in the textile production and exportation, and China's textile industry itself, after years of China's textile industry itself after years of development, the competitive advantage is very obvious, with the world's most complete industrial chain, the highest level of processing support, many developed industrial clusters to deal with market risks of self-regulation ability to continue to increase, to the industry to maintain a steady pace of development provides a solid guarantee.

From the international environment, the international market still has more room for expansion and opportunities. With the expiration of the end of 2007, the end of 2008, China and the United States textile quota restrictions on the end of the textile quota, China's textile quota-free era is approaching, accounting for more than 60% of the global textile market share of the region's full openness, will give China's textile trade will bring great opportunities.

And in the next few years the world economy will remain in the upward range, will promote the growth of international trade, which will give China's textile and apparel export growth will bring favorable international market security.

From the domestic economic environment, domestic demand will become an important driver of industry growth. 80% of China's textile products in domestic consumption. With the sustained and rapid growth of the domestic economy, the stable improvement of the residents' income, will pull the further development of the domestic demand market.

Chinese textile enterprises should overcome the difficulties of rising raw materials, the appreciation of the RMB and the adjustment of the export tax rebate, seize the opportunity of the development of the textile industry, improve the concentration of the industry, curb the blind expansion of inefficient production capacity, increase the construction of the characteristics of industrial parks, strengthen the pace of independent innovation, enhance the brand building of China's textile industry, industrial restructuring and upgrading. Make China from the textile power to the textile power across.
