Last week (October 20-26, 2025), fundamental demand was weak and order execution was the main focus. Adhesive short fibers continued to show a weak and stable trend, with prices remaining stable. The market trend of raw material dissolution slurry is stable, with average cost support. The finished product inventory of various adhesive short fiber manufacturers is not high, and there is no obvious inventory pressure at present. Downstream cotton yarn manufacturers mainly execute early orders, and the overall market speed is weak and stable. Follow up is needed, and the price of adhesive short fiber market is stagnant and weak.
According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, last week (October 20-26, 2025), the market price of viscose staple fiber was weakly stable. As of October 26, the average market price of viscose staple fiber was 13120 yuan/ton, which was the same as the previous price.
In terms of cost: Last week (October 20-26, 2025), there was little change in the market price of raw material dissolving pulp, with a weak and stagnant situation. The cost side performance was average and limited support. As of now, the price of domestic dissolving pulp is around 6700 yuan/ton, the price of external broad-leaved pulp is around 800 US dollars/ton, and the price of coniferous pulp is around 870 US dollars/ton. The market prices of auxiliary materials such as liquid alkali and sulfuric acid remain stable but fluctuate slightly, with average cost support.
Low inventory level
The industry supply remains stable, and the current daily operating rate in the market remains at around 75%. The inventory levels of various adhesive short fiber manufacturers are not high, and downstream yarn enterprises pick up goods according to demand. The overall inventory of the adhesive short fiber market has decreased, and the supply fluctuation in the industry is not significant. Some manufacturers have low inventory, and the support from the supply side is limited.
Downstream on-demand pickup
The operating rate of downstream cotton yarn market equipment has slightly increased, and price fluctuations are not significant. As of October 26th, the price of ring spun R30S in Jiangsu region is around 17200 yuan/ton, and the price of ring spun R40S is around 18300 yuan/ton. The market is in a traditional off-season of demand, and downstream cotton yarn market transactions are not ideal. Only a few models of vortex spun cotton yarn have slightly better export orders. Cotton mills mainly consume raw material inventory and replenish urgently needed goods, with no significant improvement in demand.
Future forecast
On the raw material side, the main material dissolution slurry market and the auxiliary material sulfuric acid market are generally stable, while the liquid alkali market may experience a narrow decline. Therefore, it is expected that the market price trend of adhesive short fiber raw materials will decline in the short term, and the cost support will be insufficient.
Supply and demand side: The operating rate of the adhesive short fiber market equipment may not fluctuate significantly, and some manufacturers have low inventory levels. Therefore, it is expected that the supply side support of the adhesive short fiber market will be strong in the short term; The demand in the terminal market has increased, with on-demand procurement being the main focus. It is expected that the driving force of the adhesive short fiber market from the demand side will be limited in the short term.
Overall, the main raw material dissolution slurry market may be weak and stagnant, with sufficient overall supply. Downstream yarn factories mainly sign orders and purchase on demand. Under the interweaving of on-site news, adhesive short fiber manufacturers may maintain their previous quotations. Therefore, Business Society analysts predict that the domestic adhesive short fiber market will remain stable with small movements in the short term, and the price is expected to be around 13000-13200 yuan/ton for acceptance.
