The production rate of die-cast zinc alloy last week recorded 44.35%, a decrease of 2.44 percentage points compared to last week's 46.79%.

Regarding raw material inventory, enterprises have just made purchases for immediate needs, and the inventory remained stable. In terms of production rate, although the operating time has been affected by power rationing due to high temperatures in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and other regions, most enterprises were indirectly in operation, so the impact was not significant, and the local enterprises' production status remained relatively stable. However, some die-cast zinc alloy manufacturers in southern China have been greatly affected by typhoons, resulting in occasional temporary suspensions of production, leading to a narrow decline in the overall production rate last week.

It is expected that the marginal impact caused by extreme weather will weaken this week, and the production rate of die-cast zinc alloy manufacturers may increase.
