Secondary Aluminum Operating Rate Rebounds, But Market Prices Lack Upward Momentum

Publicado: Feb 20, 2025 18:04
This week, the operating rate of leading secondary aluminum producers rebounded 0.6 percentage points WoW to 56.3%. With traders resuming operations, the domestic circulation of aluminum scrap continued to increase, easing raw material procurement pressure for secondary aluminum plants, and production levels rose slightly as a result. However, downstream demand recovery during the week was slower than expected, with weak end-user order releases. Coupled with increased operating rates in the industry and a rise in market supply, market prices lacked upward momentum. In the short term, the operating rate of the secondary aluminum industry is expected to remain largely stable, with continued attention on raw material supply and the pace of downstream demand recovery.
