Novelis and Infinitum have renewed their aluminium recycling partnership, shifting focus from pilot projects to scale and supply stability. The collaboration will expand recycling systems to strengthen recycled aluminium supply and support low-carbon production. The move also aligns with Novelis’ “3x30” targets to raise recycled content to 75% and reduce emissions intensity to below 3 tonnes of CO2 per tonne by 2030. Amid supply chain volatility, scaling recycling helps secure feedstock, manage costs and advance decarbonisation goals.

Aluminum Alloy Futures and Spot Prices Decline Amid Weak Demand and Intense Competition

[SMM Aluminum Alloy Brief] Futures side, the aluminum alloy 2606 contract opened today at 23,660 yuan/mt, with the closing price before the midday session at 23,475 yuan/mt, down 185 yuan/mt from the previous settlement, a decline of 0.78%. Spot side, ADC12 market prices continued their downward trend today, with enterprises generally lowering prices. On one hand, weakening aluminum prices loosened cost support; on the other hand, downstream demand remained persistently weak, order release was limited, and increasing low-priced resources in the market further intensified price competition. Under the weak supply-demand dynamics, enterprises mostly resorted to passive price cuts to facilitate shipments, with limited willingness to hold prices firm.
