According to customs statistics, exports of textiles (including textiles, yarns, fabrics and articles) in May 2020 amounted to US $20 billion 648 million 700 thousand, an increase of 77.34% over the same period last year. Exports of garments (including garments and accessories) were US $8 billion 905 million 700 thousand, down 26.93% from the same period last year. A big rise and a big drop, textile and clothing exports continue to "half flame half seawater" situation. From the feedback of downstream manufacturers and foreign trade companies, masks and clothing are still the key factors to support the strong rebound of textile exports and exports in May. The "Mask" economy will still play a role in textile exports in 6 and July.

According to combing statistics, in 2020 1-4, China exported 8 billion 855 million masks and 801 million dollars of protective clothing exports, accounting for 13.8% of the total exports of textiles and clothing to the world over the same period. In the 1-4 month, China exported 5 billion 93 million US dollars of textile products to the United States, an increase of 16.83% over the previous year. (the first four months, the US imports from China decreased by 46%, while the purchases from other countries decreased by 9.5%), of which the amount of export masks accounted for 33% of the textile products; the export textile products to the EU were 6 billion 613 million dollars, up 62.32% over the same period last year, of which the amount of export masks accounted for 54% of the textiles. For Japan, Korea and other countries, the proportion of masks in textile exports is generally around 40%, and the "mask economy" is worthy of the name. Considering that the impact of the January new crown epidemic on China's textile and clothing exports is not outstanding, countries such as Europe and the United States are basically normal in terms of receipt, trade and retail sales. Therefore, the proportion of masks exported in real 2-4 months is larger and the contribution is more prominent.

With the recent European and American countries pressing the economic "restart button", a number of "short, flat, fast" textile and clothing export orders are coming slowly, plus the two execution of the contract postponed in 2/3, so the proportion of the export amount of masks and protective clothing will gradually decline, but the following factors will lead to the "mask economy".

First, the global new crown has become a "protracted war". Not only is the United States, India, Brazil and some African countries deeply in the "epicentre", but the risk of the two outbreak in autumn and winter in 2020 is very large, and the demand for masks and protective supplies remains high. Two, compared with India and Pakistan and Southeast Asian countries, China's textile industry quota and workers' technical level are very obvious. Masks, protective clothing and so on are "cheap and fine". The competitiveness in the international market is strong and the wastage rate is relatively low. Three, masks and protective clothing will become the reserve materials in the post epidemic era. Not only the state related departments, government agencies and other large quantities of procurement and storage, most enterprises and individuals, families will also hoard masks in urgent need.
