Thailand's ELAI Metal Company Invites You to the 2025 SMM (2nd) Global Recycled Metal Industry Peak Forum

Published: May 31, 2025 10:05

Since the global consensus on green and low-carbon development was reached, the strategic position of the secondary metal industry has become increasingly prominent. With the accelerated advancement of industrialization, the demand for metal resources continues to grow. As a green, environmentally friendly, and economically viable alternative resource, secondary metals have become a global focus.

In recent years, Southeast Asia has emerged as a significant global hub for the distribution and processing of secondary resources. Meanwhile, with the deepening internationalization of industries such as NEVs, processing enterprises in the secondary copper, aluminum, and battery sectors at the material end have chosen to establish factories in Southeast Asian countries like Thailand to expand overseas resources and enhance global competitiveness. Thailand, as an important economy in Southeast Asia, boasts a relatively mature resource recycling system and a favorable geographical location, providing convenient conditions for regional collaboration and international trade in the secondary metal industry. It has now developed into a global industrial base for the recycling, sorting, and reprocessing of secondary metals such as secondary aluminum and secondary copper, annually exporting substantial amounts of secondary metal resources to China and other countries. Additionally, Thailand's manufacturing sector is thriving, with annual expansions in areas such as automotive manufacturing and electronics and appliances, providing strong demand support for the secondary metal resource industry.

On June 24-25, 2024, the 1st SMM Global Secondary Metal Industry Forum was held in Malaysia. The event gathered recycling associations, government officials, and renowned enterprises from various regions to discuss the current state and future development of the secondary metal industry. From 2024 to 2025, with the continuous updating of secondary metal policies and the rapid development of the industry, SMM Information & Technology Co., Ltd. plans to hold the 2025 SMM 2nd Global Secondary Metal Industry Chain Peak Forum in Thailand on June 12-13, 2025, to assist enterprises in navigating the changes in the secondary metal industry, comply with industry standardization requirements, and provide a platform for business exchanges. The summit aims to bring together associations, leading enterprises, research institutions, industry experts, and policymakers from the global secondary metal sector to jointly explore new trends, technologies, and policies in the development of the secondary metal industry. It will establish an international platform for exchange, cooperation, resource sharing, and collaborative innovation, contributing to the construction and improvement of the global resource recycling system and the realization of a global green economic transition.

At this conference, ERIGHT METALS COMPANY LIMITED will make a grand appearance, engaging in in-depth discussions with peers from upstream and downstream of the secondary metal industry on the pain points and challenges of industry development, jointly exploring business opportunities for win-win cooperation, and discussing ways to promote high-quality development of the industry.

Before the holiday, the black chain is unlikely to see a trend-driven market [SMM Steel Industry Chain Weekly Report].
This week, ferrous metals were in the doldrums, with coking coal and coke staging a mid-week rise. At the beginning of the week, financial markets experienced sharp fluctuations, dragging down sentiment in the ferrous chain and leading to a pullback in futures. Mid-week, Indonesia's cut to coke production quotas drove coking coal and coke futures to lead the gains, though the impact was more pronounced on thermal coal, while coking coal's rise was largely sentiment-driven and short-lived. In the latter part of the week, finished products continued their seasonal inventory buildup, and support from the raw material side weakened, causing the entire ferrous chain to pull back. In the spot market, with the Chinese New Year holiday approaching, purchasing activity slowed down further, with end-users only making limited, as-needed purchases at low prices.

A00 Aluminum Prices Drop, Secondary Market Shows Divergence Amid Sluggish Demand
[SMM Aluminum Alloy Daily Review] A00 aluminum prices dropped by 200 yuan/mt from the previous trading day to 23,140 yuan/mt, while SMM ADC12 prices edged down by 50 yuan/mt to 23,550 yuan/mt. Today, secondary aluminum market quotations showed some divergence, with some enterprises choosing to hold steady and wait, while others lowered their offers by about 100 yuan/mt. Driven by the price pullback, downstream purchasing mainly focused on restocking at lower levels, and transaction activity improved slightly compared to the previous period. Overall, downstream demand continued to contract, and fundamental support for prices weakened marginally. Before the holiday, secondary aluminum alloy prices are expected to remain in the doldrums at high levels, with the price center pulling back sligh
