One challenge in the market is an economic slowdown in China. In 2015, devaluation of China’s currency, the renminbi, had a huge impact on the country’s textile sector. Owing to the devaluation of China’s currency, the country’s textile sector could sell high-quality textiles at lower rates to the Indian market. The recent financial crisis taking place in China is likely to impact the global market, leading to a reduction in demand for textile machinery and textile industry waste management equipment. The country primarily imports capital and intermediate goods or raw materials from its neighboring countries and exports finished goods to final destinations with respect to demand, the report mentioned.
