In China’s spot lead market, Nanfang brand quoted RMB 13,720/mt Thursday, a RMB 600/mt premium over SHFE 1508 lead. Shuangyan (packed in plastic) settled at RMB 13,700/mt, RMB 13,450/mt for the same brand (packed in iron) and RMB 13,385/mt for old Honglu brand goods.

Branded goods were hard to source in Shanghai market with smelters’ reluctance in sales. Meanwhile, end-user consumption was poor. Deals were made at RMB 13,500-13,600/mt in Henan market. Supply shortfalls in Guangdong resulted from shipments to Jiangxi and suppliers’ shipping problems. Thus, only some Gejiu’s goods quoted RMB 13,400/mt there.

[SMM Tin News] US Makes Preliminary Anti-dumping Determination on Tinplate
On September 17, 2026, the US Department of Commerce issued a notice announcing its preliminary affirmative determination in the antidumping duty investigation on tinplate imported from China, preliminarily finding a dumping margin of 136.52% for Chinese exporters/producers (adjusted to 130.17% after offsetting subsidies as the cash deposit rate). Because the enterprises involved failed to respond to the investigation, the US reached its determination using adverse facts available. The products subject to this investigation are primarily classified under US HS codes 7210.11.0000, 7210.12.0000, 7210.50.0020, 7210.50.0090, 7212.10.0000, 7212.50.0000, 7225.99.0090, and 7226.99.0180.
