According to SMM, the enamelled wire industry has fully resumed work, but the rebound in end-use consumption has been relatively slow. Enterprises generally report that demand is expected to return to normal levels after the Lantern Festival, which aligns with the pace seen in previous years. Production differentiation is significant: the operating rates of enterprises related to home appliances, NEVs, and power transformers have already exceeded 90%, while those in traditional sectors remain at only 20–30%. SMM forecasts that the overall industry operating rate will rebound to over 70% next week.
