Choi Young-kwang, a researcher at NH Investment & Securities, said, "Despite increased operating rates at Chinese fabric companies, the annual average inventory remains at a historic low. Spandex, among textile materials, will benefit from an improved supply-demand balance," adding, "Recently, spandex demand has increased in countries like Vietnam and India, and Korea's spandex export prices also rose in the second quarter of this year."
