International Production
Cost Comparison 2012
Spinning/Texturing/Weaving/Knitting

The worlds primary textile industry is engaged in a continuing modernization


and restructuring process, spurred by the advent of entirely new or more
sophisticated textile technology together with increasing competition for
markets and products. Originating in the industrialized countries, the process
has spread to newly industrialized and to developing countries, many of
which are increasingly turning to the latest textile technology as a means of
ensuring their competitive position, especially in export markets. This trend
has been clearly evidenced by the survey on world textile machinery shipments conducted by ITMF since 1974 (International Textile Machinery
Shipment Statistics).
ITMFs International Production Cost Comparison, first published in 1979, is
designed to trace the implications of the growing capital intensity in the
primary textile industry. Thus, the presentation in this study of manufacturing
costs and of total yarn/fabric costs includes a breakdown into the various cost
elements which allows for a better appreciation of the relative importance of
these elements and their respective influence on the total costs.
When reading the report, the objectives of the study - as outlined above must constantly be borne in mind. It should also be noted that international
competition takes place between a much wider array of producers working
not only with the most modern and highly capital intensive equipment of the
type assumed in this study, but with depreciated old or second-hand machinery, leading to wide variations in manufacturing costs.
Attention is furthermore drawn to the fact that the cost pattern as emerging
from this report reflects but one of the elements entering into the calculation
of the final sales price for yarns and fabrics, others being overheads, incentive
schemes, transport and insurance, import and export duties, etc. Moreover,
competitiveness is determined increasingly by such factors as quality and
style, reliability, promptness of delivery, flexibility, etc., which fall outside the
scope of this study. An international comparison of this order can therefore
never be more than an approximation to the real market situation.
Finally, the changing nature of macro-economic factors (wage levels, inflation, interest and exchange rates, tariffs, etc.) renders it difficult to make
production cost calculations which are valid for a longer period. Hence, as
no attempt is being made in this study to neutralize the effects of changes in
the economic environment, the cost data presented are those valid at the
beginning of the investment period, their validity for the later phases of the
period being dependent on changes in macro-economic factors.

ITMF International Production Cost Comparison 2012

Scope and Coverage


Geographically, the study covers Brazil, China, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Italy, Korea, Turkey and
the USA. These countries all actively participate in international textile trade as exporters and/or
importers.

Geographical
Coverage

Every year, the machinery manufacturers on whose equipment the present study is based are
conducting numerous cost calculations for prospective clients around the world. Based on factors
supplied by these clients, manufacturing costs are calculated and enter as an important element
into the evaluation process of a given investment project. By using the same approach, ITMFs
International Production Cost Comparison attempts to simulate reality within the limits outlined
in the study. Cost factors for the participating countries are supplied by individual companies,
consultants and textile trade associations. They are carefully reviewed by the four machinery
manufacturers cooperating in the study, with a view to arriving at representative average factors
for the country concerned. The results are presented in a way enabling the reader to see the
repercussions on the costing structure of diverging factors (e.g. labour and capital costs).

Methodology

The product base in spinning is a Ne 30 (Nm 50 / 20 tex) combed yarn made of 100% cotton of
1-1/8" staple length and a Ne 20 (Nm 33 / 30 tex) carded yarn made of 100% cotton of 1-1/16
staple length. In texturing, it is a 100% polyester POY 75 f72 den textured yarn. The cotton yarns
are woven into a "print cloth" fabric of 27.6/27.6 threads per cm (ring yarn) and a print cloth
fabric of 24.0/24.0 threads per cm (rotor yarn), and a textured fabric of 38.0/31.0 threads per cm.
Fabric dimensions are 168 cm grey width (cotton ring and rotor yarn), and 177 cm grey width
(textured yarn). In knitting, the fabric constructions are of the Single Jersey type, 192 cm
unfinished width (cotton ring) and of the Lapique type, 224 cm (cotton rotor) and of the Interlock
type, 190 cm unfinished width (textured yarn), resp.

Product
Coverage

The cost calculations are based on the assumption that the cotton yarn is spun in a new mill equipped
with 16,320 Rieter ring spindles and 1,380 Rieter open-end rotors producing 400 kg per hour while
the textured yarn is produced on 10 Barmag eFK with an output of 800 metres per machine and
minute, or 2,000 kg of yarn per day (95% machine efficiency). In weaving, 96 Picanol air-jet weaving
machines OMNIplus Summum-2-P-190 produce 19.4 meters of fabric per machine and hour (94%
machine efficiency), 72 Picanol air-jet weaving machines OMNIplus Summum-2-P-190 produce
22.3 meters of fabric per machine and hour (94% machine efficiency) while 60 Picanol rapier
weaving machines OptiMax-4-R-190 have an output of 12 meters per machine and hour (95%
machine efficiency). For knitting Single Jersey (Lapique), 17 (13) circular knitting machines of Mayer
& Cie, type Relanit 3.2 II, 30 inch diameter, gg 24, 96 feeders, with an output of 25.3 kg (31.4 kg)
per machine and hour (85% machine efficiency) are assumed, while for knitting Interlock, 8 circular
knitting machines of Mayer & Cie, type OV 3.2 QC, 30 inch diameter, gg 28, 96 feeders, producing
10.7 kg per machine and hour (85% machine efficiency), are needed.

Mill Type
and Size

Rates of output are assumed to be identical for all 9 countries concerned. The different
efficiency standards prevailing in the countries have been taken into consideration by v arying
the number of workers required to obtain the output levels indicated.

Efficiency
Standards

The calculations are based on cost factors that prevailed in the 1st quarter of 2012. Cotton/
polyester prices are those of the last week of May and June, respectively.

ITMF International Production Cost Comparison 2012

Definition of Cost Factors


Manufacturing costs relate to the production area only, i.e. excluding overheads.

Reference Area

Wages include social charges, fringe benefits and shift work premiums. Note that the study
is based on expenditure in the production area only and therefore excludes overheads
(management, accounting, sales). Since, from experience, this cost factor differs widely from
one company to the other, its impact on the total costing structure may clearly be considerable.

Wages

The number of operatives required are determined by work-study methods. The individual
times are according to Mayer, Oerlikon Barmag, Picanol and Rieter standards. Overlookers
and supervisors, as well as staff for laboratories, workshops, despatch, etc. are not included.

Operating
Personnel

The requirements of skilled and unskilled workers for machine maintenance are determined
according to Mayer, Oerlikon Barmag, Picanol and Rieter standards for the overhaul and
maintenance of their machines. The values indicated give the requirements per shift, similar
to those for operatives.

Overhauling and
Maintenance
Personnel

The necessary average floor space for machines, gangways and reserve (can space etc.)
was evaluated on the basis of a great number of spinning, texturing, weaving and knitting
mill layouts. Certain alterations may arise, according to specific machinery layouts.

Floor Space

The cost of the buildings refers to the production area only and includes the costs of the air
conditioning ducts for supply and recycled air; the lighting system; the installations for high
and low voltage electricity supply; fire protection; etc. The dimension of the air conditioning
installation is in direct relation to the specific climatic conditions in the respective countries.

Building Costs

The straight-line method (as against the degressive method) was used to calculate depreciation costs which are based on the period most commonly applied in the countries
concerned (as against those provided for in tax laws). Where depreciation rates differ from
those assumed, the company-specific depreciation costs may be re-calculated using the
formula in the Annex.

Depreciation

Interest rates vary not only from country to country but also from company to company within
one single country. In this study the average interest rates that prevailed in the first quarter
of the reference year were assumed.

Definition of Cost Elements


In spinning, revenue from the sale of waste (waste from slivers, filters, flats and grid
droppings, etc.) is considered when calculating waste costs.

Waste

Wage costs are calculated on the basis of the wages paid to operatives and to skilled and
unskilled labour for maintenance work. All social charges and shift-work premiums are
included. For reserve personnel a percentage figure is added.

Labour

Energy costs include the costs relating to the actual power consumption of the machines,
the illumination and the air conditioning (in weaving, also steam and heating). It is assumed
that the mill is lit for the entire production time.

Power

The costs for spare parts, lubricants, cleaning materials and maintenance work on the
buildings represent the costs for auxiliary material (in weaving this includes preparation
costs).

Auxiliary Material

This element includes depreciation of machines, accessories and buildings. Machinery costs
include free delivery to the mill, erection and - where applic-able - customs duty and taxes.

Depreciation

Costs of capital interest.


The sum of the above group of costs gives the total manufacturing costs.
Cotton/polyester.
The sum of the above group of costs gives the total yarn or fabric costs. With regard to total
fabric costs one has to bear in mind that these consist of manufacturing costs both in
spinning/texturing and weaving/knitting of one meter fabric plus the respective raw material
costs.

Annex
How to calculate company-specific depreciation and interest costs
The separate presentation in this study of depreciation and interest costs makes it
possible to calculate company-specific capital costs. Note that the share of machinery in
total depreciation in spinning varies from 85% - 95% in the different countries and that
for weaving from 80% - 90%, whereas the machinery part makes up more than 95% of
total depreciation in knitting. The remainder is for accessories and buildings.

Example: United States


Depreciation Costs (Machinery)
Weaving Ring Yarn
Share of machinery in total depreciation:

85%

Assumed depreciation period (see page 11):

7 years

Depreciation costs (machinery)


per meter/fabric (see page 19):

85% of USD 0.095 = USD 0.081

Company-specific depreciation period:

10 years

Company-specific depreciation costs (machinery) USD 0.081 x 7 / 10 = USD 0.057


per meter/fabric:

Interest Costs
Weaving Ring Yarn
Assumed interest rate (see page 11):

4.25%

Interest costs per meter/fabric (see page 19):

USD 0.021

Company-specific interest rate:

9.0%

Company-specific interest costs per meter/fabric: USD 0.021 x 9.0 / 4.25 = USD 0.0445
