Suhe Copper Shines at SMM CCAE 2026 (15th) Copper Annual Conference

Published: Oct 09, 2026 13:36 (GMT+8)

As the opening year of the 15th Five-Year Plan, 2026 marks a critical stage for the global copper industry, characterized by supply-demand restructuring, technological innovation, and green transformation. Constrained by resources, costs, and geopolitics, copper supply growth remains limited, while new energy, new-type power grids, and AI computing power are generating substantial copper demand. The supply-demand gap continues to widen, making copper's strategic value increasingly prominent. Guided by the Implementation Plan for High-Quality Development of the Copper Industry (2025-2027), China's copper industry is accelerating its transition toward high-end, intelligent, and green development.

Against this backdrop, ,will be grandly heldon October 28-30atShangri-La Hotel, Nanchang, Jiangxi.Shanghai Metals Market (SMM)together withSuhe Copper Technology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd.cordially invites you to attend.The conference focuses on the high-quality development of the copper industry, bringing together stakeholders from industry, research, and finance to discuss technological innovation and resource coordination, driving China's copper industry from scale advantages to dual leadership in technology and value.

Suhe Copper Technology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd.is located at No. 88 Tengfei Road, Green Construction Industrial Park, Huai'an District, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province. It is a modern enterprise integrating R&D, production, processing and manufacturing, transportation, and sales of copper-based raw materials. The company has established distribution networks across Jiangsu, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Shandong, Hebei, and other regions, committed to building an intensive, efficient, green, and circular copper industry supply chain system.

The company consistently upholds the development philosophy of "lean operations, quality first, copper forging the future," adheres to the cooperation principle of combining technological innovation with client win-win outcomes, and continuously deepens its integrated "production-research-sales" strategy. Through advanced copper comprehensive utilization processes and technical equipment, it fully implements the concept of green intelligent manufacturing, promotes low-carbon circular remanufacturing of copper-based materials, and achieves coordinated development of economic and environmental benefits.

The company's key project, an annual 250,000 mt copper plate new material project, was jointly introduced by the Political and Legal Affairs Committee of Huai'an District, the District Finance Bureau, and Fanji Town. The project is located at the intersection of Tengfei Road and Gongmin West Road, with a total investment of approximately 1 billion yuan. It covers a planned area of 96 mu, with five buildings to be constructed, including production workshops, an R&D building, and a comprehensive building, totaling approximately 40,600 m² of floor area. The project introduces key equipment including crushing and sorting equipment, melting furnaces, forming equipment, magnetic separation equipment, utilities and auxiliary equipment, integrated environmental protection systems, and physical and chemical testing center facilities, forming an efficient, automated, and intelligent production line system.

The project uses copper wire nodules and other raw materials, and through the core process of "copper wire nodules - briquetting - melting - forming - copper plate," it produces high-performance copper plate products. The products are widely used in high-tech fields such as new energy, power electronics, automotive electronics, communication equipment, industrial control, and aerospace.

After the project reaches full production, it will form an annual production capacity of 250,000 mt of copper plate, with an estimated annual invoiced sales exceeding 10 billion yuan. This will not only significantly enhance the regional supply capacity of high-end materials, but also further promote the upgrading of the local industrial structure and high-quality economic development.

Widening intermonth backwardation and supply growth expectations may keep spot premiums under pressure [SMM Shanghai spot copper]
[SMM SHFE Copper Spot] Looking ahead to next week, the intermonth BACK spread has widened significantly, and suppliers' willingness to sell has clearly strengthened, with intraday quotes being lowered repeatedly to facilitate transactions. On the supply side, some imported copper is expected to arrive gradually next week, and available supply in the market may increase. Meanwhile, as the delivery date approaches, near-month contracts are providing relatively strong support, and the intermonth BACK spread is expected to remain at a relatively high level, with the possibility of further widening at certain stages, continuing to weigh on spot premiums. On the demand side, under the current pattern of high copper prices, a wide BACK spread, and spot still trading at a premium, some downstream processing enterprises are showing cautious purchase willingness, with a strong wait-and-see sentiment in the market, and some buyers inclined to wait for spot premiums to pull back further before purchasing. Overall, with expectations of increasing supply at the margin combined with pressure from the high BACK structure, spot premiums in the Shanghai region are expected to remain under pressure next week, continuing the overall downward trend. Going forward, close attention should be paid to actual arrivals of imported cargoes, changes in the intermonth spread before and after delivery, and downstream restocking at lower prices.

Southwire, the largest wire and cable manufacturer in the US, held a groundbreaking ceremony on October 1 for the expansion of its plant in Starkville, Mississippi, with an investment of $256 million. Upon completion, the plant's monthly cable and wire production is expected to grow by approximately 300%, reaching 15 to 20 million pounds (about 6,800 to 9,100 mt), with full capacity expected to be released in 2028. The expansion is driven by two converging trends: first, utilities accelerating the upgrade of aging power grid infrastructure, and second, the rapid construction of data centers and AI computing facilities driving growth in demand for copper-intensive conductive and power distribution equipment.
