Daily review on the price of waste aluminum

Today, it fell steadily by 10 yuan / ton to 13350 yuan / ton.

Raw aluminum, due to the current domestic recycled aluminum ADC12 price difference is not big, and by the impact of imports price pressure, the current raw aluminum prices across the country are relatively close, machine parts aluminum trading price around 9500-9600 yuan / ton. As for the buyer, recycled aluminum enterprises due to the lack of ADC12 price rise, considering the impact of imported aluminum alloy ingots, are willing to reduce the purchase price, only a small amount of inventory to reduce the recent purchase of raw aluminum.

The output of domestic waste aluminum is divided by region (unit: ten thousand tons)

The price of the recycling plant is stable as a whole. Domestic prices, the mainstream large recycled aluminum enterprises offer stable, concentrated in 13200-13300 yuan / ton. The cash price quoted by imported waste aluminum enterprises is maintained around 13000 yuan / ton. due to the market feedback that the inventory of imported waste is gradually reduced, the market ultra-low price has disappeared.
