Covid-19 pandemic accelerates the demand for protective and anti-bacterial yarns and fibres in China
Over the first half of 2020, the daily capacity of medical protective clothing manufacturing in China surpassed 1.5 million pieces, which served the domestic consumption for fighting the pandemic. The total of four months’ (Jan – Apr) consumption of protective clothing in 2020 in China amounts to about 33 times the total consumption in 2019.
As China gradually recovers from the pandemic, it continues to export protective necessities worldwide, retaining its position as a global factory. In turn, the demand for raw materials such as viscose, polyolefin fibres and high density polyethylene is surging.
Yarn Expo, a reliable and comprehensive trade platform for functional yarns & fibres in the Asian market during the pandemic
“The Covid-19 pandemic has elevated the demand for sustainable and antibacterial products, so our green fibres and the newly developed antibacterial socks and towels are our highlighted products at this year’s fair. This year’s Yarn Expo is an effective platform to capture the opportunities in the domestic market.” Ms Sophia Zhou, Sales Manager of Imp & Exp Co, Hmei Thread Co.,Ltd of Yibin Sichuan, China
“Our business has experienced growth amid the pandemic. We’ve brought out quite a number of anti-bacterial products at the fair and customers’ feedback has been positive. The physical fair provided us with the opportunity to have face-to-face interactions with clients which has proven to be more effective. Many visitors came here to source, the turnout is higher than I expected. We’ve already met with some potential customers. We will consider exhibiting at Yarn Expo again.” Mr Kent Wang, Sales Director, Shanghai Xinya New Material Technology Co Ltd, China
