SHANGHAI, Aug. 20 (SMM) – All the lead-acid battery makers will shut down from Aug. 28 to Sep. 4 in Hebei’s Baoding, Shanghai Metals Market reports.
This move aims to ensure blue skies as China’s Beijing counts down for the Aug. 22-30 World Championships in Athletics and the Sept. 3 parade, SMM explains.
One battery producer noted that it has received announcement of production halt from the government and it will suspend operation on Aug. 21.
Lots of ignition battery makers are located in Hebei, citing Baoding’s Fengfan Co. and Shuangfan Auto-Battery Co. Consequently, domestic automobile battery supply will be negatively affected.
