The analysis of the indices suggested that Chinese textile industry is now confronted with multiple pressures. Global economy is recovery at a slow pace, adding burden to the recuperation of textile and apparel industry. In China, coupled with the growing demand for energy saving and emission reduction in the production, the continually rising prices of textile raw materials have made it more difficult for the country's textile industry to recover. Given the circumstances, it is anticipated that the indexes in the next quarter will have a tendency of declining.
