The 2025 Dun & Bradstreet & SMM "ESG Excellence in Lead and Zinc Industry" Award List Announced! [SMM Lead and Zinc Summit]

Published: Apr 10, 2025 09:36

In the global wave of green transformation and sustainable development, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) has become a core driving force for the high-quality development of enterprises. As an important pillar of China's non-ferrous metals industry, the lead and zinc industry stands at a critical historical period—how to balance resource development and environmental protection? How to synergize social responsibility and economic benefits? How to enhance governance capabilities and industry competitiveness? These issues urgently require our collective exploration and resolution.

To recognize lead and zinc enterprises that have achieved good performance in ESG, and to encourage more enterprises to actively carry out and practice ESG work, Dun & Bradstreet, in collaboration with SMM, has launched a significant ESG ranking for enterprises in the lead and zinc sector, and held a grand award ceremony at the 2025 SMM (20th) Lead and Zinc Conference and Industry Expo !

Lead prices were in the doldrums, while secondary lead smelters maintained firm offers due to losses. The mainstream spot order ex-factory prices including tax narrowed the discount to the SMM #1 lead average price by 100 yuan/mt, shifting to a premium of 0–25 yuan/mt, with some smelters halting offers and sales.

Pre-holiday stockpiling by downstream enterprises had largely concluded, and a few had already entered the holiday period, completely suspending procurement. Next week, secondary lead smelters will enter a concentrated wave of production halts and holidays, resulting in sluggish trading activity in the spot market. Offers for spot refined lead orders were sparse, with prices moving in line with the market.

The domestic secondary crude lead market experienced sluggish transactions. As of February 6, 2026, the ex-factory tax-exclusive offers for domestic secondary crude lead stood at 15,250-15,400 yuan/mt. Downstream refined lead and alloy smelters gradually entered the holiday period, showing weak stockpiling willingness. Overseas lead ingot suppliers basically halted transactions with China due to poor consumption in the Chinese market, with only some previously concluded shipments maintaining normal in-transit transportation. The trading atmosphere in the secondary crude lead market will continue to weaken next week.
