Polyester single yarn exports of China

During the pandemic, demand for polyester single yarn was bearish both in India local market and overseas, and Indian spinners suffered much. The anti-dumping investigation at this time is to protect and support Indian local spinners to a certain extent. In the meantime, import pattern may be changed to promote Indian local spinners to occupy the market.

Polyester single yarn exports of China amounted to 218kt in 2019 and among the total, about 21kt was exported to India. Comparatively, India’s anti-dumping investigation will impact the polyester single yarn exports of China as the export orders were already sporadic and the investigation will bring more problems, but due to limited shares, the impacts will not be as large as imagined.
