The operating rate of Chinese aluminium plate/sheet and strip producers was 70.75% in October, up 0.46 percentage points YoY and 1.49 percentage points MoM.
Most aluminium plate/sheet and strip produces had ample orders at the end of October, while some saw traditional lull demand. It is expected that the industry's operating rate will decline significantly in November and not recover until next March.
