Chinese SiMn alloy output stood at 934,000 mt in May, up 4.26% on the month and 0.09% on the year, SMM data showed. From January to May 2023, the SiMn alloy output in China was 4.65 million mt, a drop of 1.34% year-on-year. Due to the orders from National Food and Strategic Reserves Administration, the operating rates of a large factory in Guizhou increased in May.
Although some alloy factories reduced output, the overall output growth exceeded output declines. Restricted by high electricity prices in Guangxi, only some SiMn alloy 6014 plants in the region restarted production. Some alloy enterprises in Ningxia, the main production area in the north, increased production schedules, and their output grew month-on-month.
Although plants in Inner Mongolia undertook maintenance, the overall output was relatively stable. On the whole, the SiMn alloy output increased in May.
