IAI:6 monthly global primary aluminum production fell from a record high and the average daily output also declined.

Global primary aluminium production, excluding China, fell from a record high to 2.304 million tonnes in June, according to data released by the International Aluminium Association ((IAI)). The average daily output of primary aluminum in the world (excluding China) was 76800 tons in June, falling for the second month in a row.

Note: the International Aluminum Association (IAI) currently has 27 member companies, including upstream producers of the aluminum industry chain, downstream recycling and aluminum processors. Its member companies account for more than 80 per cent of global primary aluminum production, more than 60 per cent of global bauxite and alumina production, and a large proportion of recycled aluminum production. The global primary aluminum production data released by the group on the 20th of each month are preliminary and will usually be revised in next month's report.
