About the suspension of booking by a shipping company in Germany and France

Published: Jul 10, 2020 19:42

Recently, the recycled Metals Branch learned from several sources that some foreign shipping companies have suspended or are about to suspend shipping services involving copper and aluminum scraps that can be used as raw materials to mainland China and Hong Kong. At the same time, all shipping orders originally planned to arrive in the above-mentioned areas after September 1 will also be cancelled.

Here, the recycled Metal Branch reminds domestic and foreign enterprises to communicate with shipping companies in advance to avoid the impact and losses on the trade and logistics of recycled metal raw materials. At the same time, it is hoped that all enterprises can adhere to legal management and ensure the quality of raw materials.

The standard of recycled metal raw materials was formally implemented on July 1, 2020. those who meet the raw material standards are ordinary commodities, and the import business can be carried out after the relevant national competent departments have determined the details of the import operation. At present, the solid waste import licenses issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment are valid until December 31, 2020, and the goods imported under the license are legal. I hope that the relevant carriers will ensure the smooth flow of recycled metal raw materials.

During the day, the SHFE copper 2604 contract declined somewhat, with its trading range shifting lower to around 98,100-98,500 yuan/mt. According to SMM communications, after the center of copper prices moved lower, market buying interest recovered markedly. Downstream processing enterprises reported that order volumes from end-users had risen recently, and they were actively replenishing raw material inventory amid the pullback in copper prices. At the same time, upstream smelters also reported strong buying sentiment in the spot market, with relatively active downstream procurement and smooth overall transactions. This round of pullback in copper prices stimulated previously suppressed restocking demand, and downstream enterprises showed strong willingness to buy the dip.
