This week, the operating rate of leading primary aluminum alloy enterprises remained at 55%. Despite the rise in aluminum prices this week, the enthusiasm of downstream customers for picking up goods did not improve significantly due to sluggish demand, and there was no significant change in the production and sales volume of alloy enterprises. The overall industry continued to operate steadily. In the future, the task of aluminum water alloying undertaken by primary aluminum alloy enterprises will continue to support the operating rate of enterprises, and the operating rate of the industry is expected to rise slowly.
