With the end of the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020, the demand for masks is declining. Many mask enterprises can't export without relevant qualification certificates, and the domestic market is not broad, so they have no choice but to withdraw from this market. But in fact, China's mask industry has developed into a mature industry with an annual output value exceeding10 billion yuan. Masks are needed in hospitals, food processing plants, mines, foggy cities and other scenes, and the prospects are still good.

It is estimated that 202 1 will have a certain decline, and the market scale of the whole mask industry is still expanding.

In addition, scale will become the concentrated advantage of competition in the second half of the year. In the past, small workshop-style mask manufacturers will definitely speed up the reshuffle, while large domestic mask manufacturers, for example, can produce 6.5438+million pieces/day, which is more competitive.

Extended data:

The price of mask machine melt-blown cloth plummeted, and manufacturers changed hands to worry that the equipment would become "scrap iron"

At present, China has entered the "prevention and control period" of the epidemic. Not only does the supply of masks exceed demand to gain a competitive advantage, but even mask machines and meltblown fabrics are not easy to sell. Previously, some manufacturers who switched to masks changed hands at a price of 200,000 yuan and bought them at a high price of 6,543.8+0,000 yuan to prevent the mask machine from becoming "scrap iron".

The data shows that the price of 99-grade meltblown fabrics has also begun to decrease. On May 16, the price of 99-grade meltblown fabric was 650,000 yuan/ton, and on May 22, it was 400,000 yuan/ton, with a price reduction of 250,000 yuan in one week, which was far from the "high level" of more than 750,000 yuan/ton during the last bidding period.
