Shanghai Metals Market (SMM) is thrilled to announce that our 2026 SMM Global Lead-Acid Battery Supply Chain Industry Conference is scheduled to take place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, during November 12-13, 2026!

Why Should You Attend?

The 2026 SMM Global Lead-Acid Battery Supply Chain Industry Conference is dedicated to bringing together global players across the entire lead-acid battery industry chain, including lead-acid battery manufacturers, lead smelters, lead ingot traders, lead raw material suppliers, as well as enterprises specializing in related equipment and auxiliary materials. By delving deep into key topics — such as the current status and future development trends of the global lead industry chain, variations in go-global policies and compliance strategies for the lead industry chain among Asia-Pacific countries, and the impact of trade wars on lead-acid battery consumer markets — the conference will deliver precise market insights and strategic guidance to participating enterprises. This will empower them to seize opportunities amid the complex market landscape, driving the green restructuring and sustainable development of the global lead-acid battery supply chain.

Why Vietnam?

In 2026, the global lead-acid battery industry maintains steady growth, retaining an irreplaceable position in starter, industrial, and energy storage applications, with recycled lead emerging as the primary raw material source. The global supply chain is undergoing a rapid shift toward Southeast Asia.

Vietnam has emerged as a strategic hub for lead smelting, battery production, and recycling, driven by high vehicle ownership, strong manufacturing support, and favorable trade conditions.

LABC2026 aims to build a global platform for exchange and collaboration, promoting innovation across the entire lead industry chain—from mining and recycling to battery production and equipment.

Central Asia Metals’ copper-zinc output beats last year
Central Asia Metals (CAML) announced that, thanks to improved operational efficiencies, its copper and zinc production for the first five months of 2026 both surpassed the same period last year. Copper output from the Kounrad operation in Kazakhstan totalled 5,141 tonnes, a near 4% increase over the last year. Meanwhile, the Sasa mine in North Macedonia produced 7,566 tonnes of zinc in concentrate, up over 2% compared to last year. In terms of pricing, the company reported significantly higher realized metal prices during the period. The average price of copper reached $13,076 per tonnes, representing a massive jump of nearly 40% over the last year, while average zinc prices rose 19% to $3,299 per tonne. In addition, historically low treatment charges for lead, which have turned negative, further boosted Sasa’s revenues. CEO Gavin Ferrar noted that the group is shaping up to deliver strong profitability and cash generation in the first half of 2026. Currently, the company is actively pushing forward with its acquisition of Australia's Cygnus Metals, announced last week, to expand its footprint into a high-grade copper-gold project in Quebec, Canada. The company remains highly confident in meeting its full-year production guidance (12,000–13,000 tonnes of copper, 18,000–20,000 tonnes of zinc concentrates, and 26,000–28,000 tonnes of lead concentrates).
