The great development period of China's aluminum plate, strip and foil industry has passed. The rapid growth period of the industry has ended in 2016. New production capacity has been scarce in the past three years. For the equipment and production capacity information of China's aluminum rolling industry, we have conducted an analysis of the current existing production capacity based on the time of production.
Sorting it out, we can see that the period of large-scale production capacity was mainly from 2006 to 2013. Since 2023, new production capacity has dropped significantly. Rising aluminum prices, increased environmental protection requirements, and stricter energy consumption approvals have all made it more difficult for small and medium-sized enterprises to survive. The industry Increased concentration and optimized competitive landscape.
(1) Due to the rise in aluminum prices, the financial pressure on small companies has become more obvious. Although aluminum prices are currently correcting, the cyclical baptisms will shuffle small and medium-sized enterprises with weak anti-risk capabilities out of the market, completing the increase in concentration;
(2) The current environmental protection requirements of the domestic manufacturing industry are relatively high, and the energy consumption approval for new production capacity has been tightened, which has also led to the period when the industry did not need to expand.
