China is the largest producer of cotton, cashmere, flax, and silk, as well as the biggest manufacturer and exporter of textiles in the world. In 2010, the output value of enterprises above the designated size (i.e. with annual sales above RBM5 million) in Chinese textile industry totaled RMB4765 billion, up 12.7% YoY; the export value of fabrics reached US$35.68 billion, up 30.81% YoY, and the export volume hit 28.83 billion meters, up 17.5% YoY.

Subject to factors like the additional costs resulted from the climbing cost of raw materials, technical R&D and innovations as well as exchange rate and trade barriers, the prices of fabrics have been on the rise. In 2010, the price of pure cotton fabric rose approximately 100%, and that of silk fabric expanded more than 30%. The output and sales of textile fabric achieved a rough balance, and the output-sales ratio hovered above 99%.

Along with the improvement of people's living standard, the market demand for downstream products like clothes, household articles, and commercial textiles has been increasing despite the rapidly rising prices of textile fabrics; consequently, textile fabric industry still boasts huge development potentiality, and high-quality, healthy, and fashionable products can gain greater market recognition, especially.
