SMM12, 20 / 20 / PRNewswire-FirstCall-Asianet /- The Ministry of Ecology and Environment has issued a letter on the acceptance of the National Environmental Protection Industrial pollution site and groundwater remediation Engineering Technology Center and the National Environmental Protection lead-acid Battery production and Recycling Engineering Technology Center, details of which are as follows:

The center will carry out engineering research and system integration for the key and common technical problems in the prevention and control of lead battery production, recovery and recycling pollution in China. Promote the research and application of environmental protection, low-carbon new energy battery production technology and lead cycle technology, provide technical support for the realization of national environmental protection goals, and promote the transformation, upgrading and sustainable development of the whole battery industry.

As early as August 7 this year, the Ministry of Ecological Environment presided over the construction and acceptance meeting of the National Environmental Protection lead-acid Battery production and Recycling pollution Prevention and Control Engineering Center in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province. The acceptance expert group listened carefully to the report on the construction of the supporting units, inspected the R & D facilities of the engineering and technology center, and reviewed the relevant materials for the acceptance of the engineering and technology center. The meeting suggested that the development direction and objectives of the engineering and technology center should be further clarified, and that, in view of the key and common technologies restricting the prevention and control of pollution in the industry, the research and development and transformation of pollution prevention and control technologies in the whole process of production, recovery and regeneration of lead-acid batteries should be further strengthened. Give full play to the technical support role of the engineering technology center to the national environmental management.

Lead prices were in the doldrums, while secondary lead smelters maintained firm offers due to losses. The mainstream spot order ex-factory prices including tax narrowed the discount to the SMM #1 lead average price by 100 yuan/mt, shifting to a premium of 0–25 yuan/mt, with some smelters halting offers and sales.

Pre-holiday stockpiling by downstream enterprises had largely concluded, and a few had already entered the holiday period, completely suspending procurement. Next week, secondary lead smelters will enter a concentrated wave of production halts and holidays, resulting in sluggish trading activity in the spot market. Offers for spot refined lead orders were sparse, with prices moving in line with the market.

The domestic secondary crude lead market experienced sluggish transactions. As of February 6, 2026, the ex-factory tax-exclusive offers for domestic secondary crude lead stood at 15,250-15,400 yuan/mt. Downstream refined lead and alloy smelters gradually entered the holiday period, showing weak stockpiling willingness. Overseas lead ingot suppliers basically halted transactions with China due to poor consumption in the Chinese market, with only some previously concluded shipments maintaining normal in-transit transportation. The trading atmosphere in the secondary crude lead market will continue to weaken next week.
