[Galvanising operating conditions] Operating rates of galvanising producers fell significantly, mainly due to the concentrated holidays of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, which markedly reduced effective production time. Demand side, recent orders showed divergence across different segments. Steel tower orders were relatively strong, with some enterprises receiving solid order support and taking fewer days off during the holidays, maintaining a degree of resilience in production. In contrast, other traditional galvanising orders remained weak, with insufficient new orders. Some enterprises had extended holiday breaks, and overall production schedules were notably affected.
