Last week, the average operating rate of galvanising enterprises rose 9.69 percentage points from the previous week to 64.35%. In terms of raw material inventory, galvanising plants mainly worked through the inventory restocked before the holidays, with a few dip buyers, resulting in a decrease in raw material inventory. The increase in weekly operating rates was relatively obvious, as galvanising plants resumed normal production after the holidays. The lack of confidence in the overall real estate market pushed down ferrous metals prices, and traders had restocked before the holidays. The sales was thus poor, in turn growing the inventory of finished products. In terms of galvanised structural parts, the orders were weak, and the production remained stable. The operating rates of galvanising plants will remain at the current level this week.
