今年上半年，孟加拉棉纱进口上涨25%

 

Bangladesh cotton yarn import increase by 25pc from Jan to July this year

Bangladesh imported 207,644 tonnes of cotton yarn from January to July this year an increase by more than 25 percent during the first seven months in 2016. Major portion of the yarn has been imported from the neighbouring India. In recent times yarn is also being imported from Indonesia, industry insiders said, which local spinners termed a threat for the sub-sector of the country's primary textile industry.

Industry insiders apprehended that if the trend continues, it would badly affect the backward linkage industry that meets nearly 80 percent requirement of the local knit sector.

Former BTMA president Jahangir Alamin said that this is alarming for the local spinning industry that has the capacity to meet the knit sector's requirements. A few grades of yarn, used for producing high value added products, are not produced here, but it is insignificant.

The local millers can meet 35 to 40 percent of the woven sector's fabric requirement, and the rest is met through import, he explained.

今年上半年，孟加拉棉纱进口上涨25%

今年1-7月，孟加拉进口207644吨棉纱，前几个月的增幅超过25%。主要纱线是从邻国印度进口。最近纱线也从印尼进口,业内人士表示,当地纺织者把其称为对该国主要纺织工业分部门的威胁。

业内人士担忧,如果这一趋势持续下去,将严重影响到落后的行业,需满足近80%当地针织行业的需求。

BTMA前总统Jahangir Alamin就说,这对于当地纺纱行业产能以满足针织行业的需求来说是令人担忧的。几个等级的纱,用于生产高附加值的产品,就不会在这里生产,但它是无关紧要的。

当地的工厂主能满足纺织行业35%-40%的面料要求,剩下的则会通过进口,他解释说。
