Antai Textile: Over 30 Years of Deep Cultivation in Acrylic Yarn, Riding the Tailwind of 8.2% CAGR to Lead the Market

In the midsummer of 2025 in Zhangjiagang, the sun blazes fiercely, and the production workshop of Antai Textile is even more bustling with activity. Since taking root in this fertile land in 1993, this established enterprise focusing on the acrylic yarn sector has been keenly capturing every pulse of the market with over 30 years of industry accumulation.

Li Xiong, Marketing Manager, has recently paid special attention to industry trends. When he saw the analysis report predicting that the market size of the acrylic blended yarn industry will reach 2.5 million tons in 2025 with a high CAGR of 8.2%, his eyes sparkled with excitement. "These figures fully confirm that our persistence over the years is correct," Li Xiong told team members at the department meeting. "The continuous demand in fields such as apparel, home textiles, and industrial textiles has provided a broad stage for the development of our acrylic yarn, acrylic top, colored acrylic top, and various fancy yarns. Especially under the trend of personalized consumption, our colored acrylic top and fancy yarns, with their rich colors and diverse styles, are increasingly favored by downstream brand customers, which coincides with the demand-driven factors mentioned in the report."

This confidence is not unfounded. As one of the earliest domestic enterprises to engage in the R&D and production of acrylic yarn, Antai Textile has witnessed the magnificent development of China's textile industry. From the initial few production lines to now a modern enterprise with multiple advanced production lines and a considerable annual production capacity, Antai Textile has taken every step solidly and steadily. The company深知 that excellent product quality is the foundation for survival, so it has continuously invested in technological R&D. It not only has an experienced technical team but also maintains cooperation with multiple scientific research institutions to continuously optimize production processes and improve product performance. The acrylic yarn it produces is known for even evenness, few hairiness, and high strength, widely used in medium and high-end knitted and woven fabrics, providing high-quality raw material guarantees for many well-known apparel and home textile brands, and establishing a good reputation in the industry.

However, market opportunities are often accompanied by challenges. At the beginning of July, fluctuations in the market for acrylonitrile, the main raw material for acrylic, aroused high vigilance from Antai Textile. Li Xiong immediately informed the production department of the news that Lihuayi's spot acrylonitrile quotation had been lowered, as well as the equipment maintenance plans of multiple enterprises such as Shandong Haijiang, Tianchen Qixiang, and Liaoning Kingfa Technology. "The short-term decline in raw material prices may bring certain cost space, but with several major factories conducting concentrated maintenance, whether subsequent supply will tighten and how prices will trend—these all require us to assess in advance and make contingency plans."

Director Huang of the Production Department, a veteran with over 20 years of experience in the textile industry, was already confident about this. "Don't worry, Manager Li. Our production department is always monitoring the slightest changes in the raw material market," Director Huang said after receiving the information, immediately convening a meeting with the production scheduling and purchasing teams. "We have a mature supply chain management system and diversified procurement channels. In response to possible raw material supply shortages, on the one hand, we will take advantage of the current price优势 and reasonably stock up in combination with existing inventory; on the other hand, we will maintain close communication with long-term raw material suppliers to ensure stable supply and quality of raw materials. More importantly, our continuously optimized production processes can effectively improve raw material utilization and reduce unit energy consumption, which is one of our core competencies in the current market environment."

In Antai Textile's workshop, advanced automated equipment operates in an orderly manner. From raw material input to finished yarn winding and forming, every link embodies technology and craftsmanship. Director Huang pointed to a production line producing colored acrylic top and introduced: "This product is one of our flagship products. It uses environmentally friendly dyes, has high color fastness, bright and long-lasting colors, and can meet the downstream customers' needs for small batches, multiple varieties, and fast delivery. In recent years, as home textiles and decorative textiles have increasingly higher requirements for color diversity, the order volume of our colored acrylic top and fancy yarns has been rising year by year, which is the result of our adapting to market demand and continuously adjusting product structure."

For over 30 years, Antai Textile has always adhered to the philosophy of "Survive by Quality, Develop by Innovation". From the initial single product to now a complete product line covering acrylic yarn, acrylic top, colored acrylic top, and various fancy yarns, and from serving local customers to products being sold at home and abroad, it has won wide market recognition and customer trust. Facing the golden opportunities of the booming acrylic yarn market and the changing dynamics of the raw material market, Antai Textile, relying on its profound technical accumulation, strong production support capabilities, and accurate grasp of market trends, is moving forward steadily, committed to contributing its strength to the prosperity and development of the textile industry, and continuously writing a chapter of progress for an established textile enterprise in the new era.
