Kloeckner Metals UK has recently inaugurated its cutting-edge stockholding and processing facility at Newbridge Link in the Newbridge Industrial Estate in Edinburgh. With a substantial stock capacity of 5,000 tonnes, comprising aluminium, carbon steel, and stainless steel, combined with Kloeckner Metals UK's extensive processing proficiency, the facility is well-equipped to provide a wide range of sustainable solutions.

Opting for a strategic location just 10 miles from the city centre, the company has established the largest metal stockholding and processing warehouse in Scotland, featuring an impressive internal space exceeding 100,000 square feet and an accompanying 11,114 square feet office pavilion.
Peter Whiting, CEO of Kloeckner Metals UK, said, "At Kloeckner, we continue to showcase a profound commitment to sustainability, investing in cutting-edge technologies and advanced equipment to deliver sustainable, efficient and dependable services. The opening of our new site in Newbridge is a testament to our unwavering commitment to meeting the needs of the Scottish market while actively contributing to a more sustainable future."
CBRE, representing asset managers JCAM Property, facilitated the leasing of Unit 1 at Newbridge Link, while LSH represented Kloeckner in the transaction. Reflecting both the occupier and landlord's dedication to sustainability, CBRE played a crucial role by advising and incorporating a Green Lease Clause into the deal structure.
The selection of the building was influenced by the superior refurbishment executed by the landlord. Newbridge's strategic location was also a key factor, providing Kloeckner with exceptional connectivity to enhance its broader operations across the UK.
Mike Brown, Associate Director at CBRE, stated, “CBRE is delighted to have secured this excellent deal on behalf of the landlord, signalling one of the largest industrial transactions in Scotland for 2023. The fact the building was let prior to a formal launch of the marketing provides evidence to the critical lack of good quality industrial buildings in Scotland currently, and Kloeckner’s acquisition is adequate reward for JCAM Property who took on this large-scale project.”

Amid fluctuations in the US-Iran conflict, the night session saw SHFE aluminum prices rise. Today, traders and downstream processing enterprises in central China mainly adopted a wait-and-see stance, with low purchase willingness, leading to sluggish market transactions. Some large suppliers held prices firm and held back from selling, while smaller suppliers showed weaker resolve to hold prices, resulting in a significant divergence between quotations and transactions. Ultimately, the actual transaction price range in the central China market was around a premium -100-140 yuan/mt against the SHFE aluminum August contract, with a continued weakening trend.

[SMM Aluminum Express News] Coca-Cola said rising aluminum and PET resin costs contributed to a loss of market share in India during the second quarter, as higher packaging costs and gaps in its mid-priced packaging portfolio affected competitiveness. The company said aluminum and PET prices increased more than expected, while shortages of aluminum cans also disrupted product availability in the market. The company is responding by adjusting prices, sourcing larger aluminum cans from Southeast Asia, and expanding packaging options to recover market share. Coca-Cola said it remains optimistic about long-term growth in India despite the recent cost pressures and supply chain disruptions.
