Operating rate of copper material producers to hover at lows

Rates are expected at 74.88% in Nov, up 0.68 percentage point on the month

SHANGHAI, Nov 30 (SMM) – The average operating rate across domestic copper materials producers is expected to hover at a low of 74.88% in November, up 0.68 percentage point on the month, an SMM survey found.

Improved overseas orders for home appliances accounted for the slight increase. Overall sluggish downstream demand kept plants operating at low rates in November, SMM learned.

While overall weak consumption may continue through December, SMM believes that the electric grid and infrastructure sectors will provide some support.

Operating rates of China silicon plants fell to 4-year low as COVID-19 disrupted raw materials supply

In early February, raw materials shortage due to suspended logistics and disrupted operations at mines weighed on production at silicon mills in Xinjiang, Sichuan, Guizhou and Heilongjiang. This outweighed ramped-up production in Fujian, Guangxi and Chongqing and accounted for the declines in overall operating rates in February.
