Recently, aluminum ingot prices have shown a significant upward trend, with a continued tight supply-demand situation influenced by multiple factors. On the one hand, global electrolytic aluminum capacity expansion is limited, domestic capacity is nearing its ceiling, and overseas supply faces uncertainty due to high energy costs and geopolitical conflicts, resulting in overall supply rigidity. On the other hand, strong demand from emerging fields such as new energy vehicles and photovoltaics is driving steady growth in aluminum consumption, while traditional downstream industries are performing weakly due to the off-season and cost pressures, creating a game of "tight supply and divergent demand." Furthermore, a weakening US dollar and domestic policy stimulus further support aluminum prices, keeping them volatile at high levels.
To cope with this market change, our factory quickly activated its capacity adjustment mechanism, ensuring stable product supply by optimizing production plans and supply chain management. We prioritize orders from core customers while flexibly allocating resources to reduce the impact of high-priced raw materials on costs. Specific measures include:
Dynamic production scheduling: Adjusting production line load in real time based on aluminum ingot price fluctuations and order demand to avoid idle or over-consumed capacity.
Cost control: Strengthening the recycling and utilization of scrap aluminum to improve raw material utilization efficiency and offset some of the pressure from rising prices.
Customer Communication: We proactively negotiated with partners to secure a portion of production capacity through long-term agreements, mitigating the risks of short-term market fluctuations.
This adjustment aims to balance costs and delivery, maintaining the plant's operational resilience. We are committed to continuously monitoring market dynamics to ensure our capacity strategy aligns with industry trends, providing reliable support to our customers. Moving forward, we will continue to focus on technological innovation and green production, seizing opportunities amidst aluminum price volatility to create value together.
