Downstream makers resumed normal operation in China with circular-knitting mills and covering mills operating at 40-60%, warp-knitting mills running at 60-80% of full capacity.
On the back of mildly increased demand, the market was awaiting replenishment season. Demand for staple fiber, fishing-net yarn, monofilament and cord fabric improved, with a cautiously upbeat outlook.
