       据海关总署数据显示,2025年3月国内铜板带共出口10543吨,环比增长40.5%,同比增长5.2%。截至3月,我国铜板带共出口28424吨,累计同比增长2.65%。

       具体来看,今年3月我国铜板带出口共涉及92个国家和地区。从出口至各国的铜板带数量排名来看,韩国以1236吨的进口量位居第一,中国台湾共进口1104吨位居第二,越南3月进口量为1047吨位居第三。从同比变化来看,出口数量排名前十的国家中,出口至印度尼西亚的同比增幅最为显著。另外,可关注到出口至美国的铜板带产品数量同比下滑高达57.03%。因美国并非我国铜板带产品的主要出口国,故据SMM了解,当前中美的贸易战并未对国内铜板带的出口订单量造成明显的影响和拖累。

       从贸易方式来看,进料加工占比高达67.43%,为当前最主要的贸易方式,而来料加工和一般贸易占比仅为13.66%和12.52%。

       SMM预计铜板带4月的出口量仍将保持高位。当前全球的贸易环境并不稳定,贸易政策随时可能发生变化,外部环境的不确定性给铜板带企业更高的压力。虽铜板带产品的出口订单并未直接受到美国关税整的影响,但从产业链传导过程来看,铜板带下游的3C电子产品、新能源汽车等产品的出口均已经受到抑制,且已经传导至铜板带企业4月的新增订单量,铜板带企业的订单和开工将间接受到一定拖累。
