Yao mu, an academician at the Chinese academy of engineering, believes three major changes will take place in the world's textile industry

There will be a shortage of global textile materials, which has aroused great concern both inside and outside the industry. From the raw materials of natural fibers, land resources have become the most important factors restricting their output. In the coming decades, the world's population will surge and food problems become the world's first conflict. Under the strict control of farmland policy, the plantation area of traditional natural fiber is difficult to guarantee, which directly affects its production supply.

The change of the application structure of textile products is accelerating, and the trend of shift from clothing to home textiles, especially in industrial fields, is obvious. It can be said that the growth of textile industry in the coming decades mainly comes from the expansion of industrial fields. For China such as China, the development of industrial textiles is not a good reputation.

The labor costs of China's textile industry have risen significantly, which is comparable to the level of textile powers such as the United States and Britain in the 1970s. The low cost advantage of China's textile industry has been badly hit. According to the national plan, the minimum wage will be doubled during the 12th five-year plan period, and the labor costs of the textile industry will increase significantly.
