Recently, the editor can always hear some customers complain that the price of non-woven fabrics is too high, so I specially searched for the factors that affect the price of non-woven fabrics. .
The factors that affect the price are generally the following:
1. The price of crude oil in the raw material/oil market
Since non-woven fabrics are chemical products, the raw material is polypropylene, and polypropylene is also made of propylene, a crude oil refining product, so changes in the price of propylene will directly affect the price of non-woven fabrics. The raw materials are also divided into genuine, secondary, imported and domestic.
2. The equipment and technical input of the manufacturer
The quality of imported equipment is different from that of domestic equipment, or the same raw materials are produced due to different production technologies, resulting in different tensile strength, surface treatment technology, uniformity and feel of non-woven fabrics, which will also affect the price of non-woven fabrics.
3. Quantity
The higher the quantity, the lower the purchasing cost and the lower the production cost.
4. Factory inventory capacity
Some large factories will stock up a large number of spot or whole cabinets of imported raw materials when the price of materials is low, saving a lot of production costs.
5. Influence of production area
There are many manufacturers of non-woven fabrics in North China, Central China, East China and South China, so the cost in these areas is low. On the contrary, in other areas, the price is relatively high due to factors such as freight, maintenance, and storage fees. .
6. International policy or exchange rate impact
Political influences such as national policies, tariff issues, etc., will also affect price fluctuations. Exchange rate changes are also a factor.
7. Other factors
Such as environmental protection, special specifications, local government support and subsidies, etc.
Of course, there are other cost factors that vary from factory to factory, such as employee costs, departmental R&D costs, factory production capacity, sales capacity, team service capacity, etc.
Price is a sensitive factor. I hope everyone can rationally view some tangible or intangible influencing factors in the process of inquiry.
