March is the traditional peak season for the enamelled wire industry, and enterprises are generally optimistic about subsequent orders. Enterprises reported that the release of orders in the home appliance sector has been quite strong; current orders on hand are sufficient, and some models are in a tight “insufficient supply to fulfill shipments” situation. In addition, orders in the NEV and power transformer sectors also remained steady. Based on the current production schedule for orders, the operating rate of the enamelled wire industry is expected to rebound to 74.45 in March.
