The Zhejiang Provincial Government recently formulated the "Zhejiang Province Traditional Manufacturing Industry Overall Transformation and Upgrading Action Plan (2017-2020)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan"), to promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing industries and accelerate the adjustment of economic structure and development methods in Zhejiang Province.
 
The "Action Plan" clearly states that through four years of efforts, it aims to significantly improve the position of traditional manufacturing industries in the international division of labor and value chain, and basically complete the demonstration zones for traditional manufacturing transformation and upgrading. It aims to accelerate the construction of 10 industrial clusters worth over 100 billion yuan and cultivate 30 leading enterprises worth over 10 billion yuan. The output value rate of new products is expected to reach 35%. The energy consumption per unit of industrial added value, wastewater discharge, and water consumption are expected to decrease by more than 4%, 2%, and 5%, respectively.
 
The "Action Plan" points out that based on the foundation and relevance of industrial development, Zhejiang will focus this year on upgrading 10 manufacturing industries including textiles, clothing, leather, and chemical fibers, accumulating experience and gradually expanding to other traditional manufacturing fields.
 
In the textile manufacturing industry, efforts will be made to promote the industry towards high-end, intelligent, and green directions. The focus will be on developing high-quality textile fabrics and high-end silk textile products, and expanding the application of industrial textiles. The development and application of digital and intelligent textile equipment will be accelerated.
 
In the chemical fiber manufacturing industry, the research, development, and industrialization of new functional fibers, high-performance fibers, and bio-based chemical fibers will be strengthened, promoting the transformation of the chemical fiber manufacturing industry towards emerging materials, and expanding the application of functional clothing fiber products in aerospace and railway transportation.
 
In the clothing manufacturing industry, efforts will be made to promote the development of the industry towards fashion and personalization. Strengthening the construction of independent brands, accelerating the transformation of clothing enterprises from large-scale production to flexible, personalized customization and other service-oriented manufacturing.
