Winning large - scale orders from key domestic infrastructure projects |
The aluminum products saw a significant boost in sales due to the growing demand in emerging industries such as aerospace and new energy vehicle battery enclosures. Copper products were well - received in the new energy charging pile market, driving up sales. Stainless steel products, especially high - end ones, expanded their market share in the medical equipment industry. Carbon steel products continued to perform well in the domestic infrastructure project market, securing large - scale orders.
At the end of June, the total inventory of the company's main metal products was 210,000 tons, a sharp decrease of 37,000 tons from the end of the previous month, a month - on - month decrease of 15%. The inventory of each product was further optimized and controlled at an even more reasonable level, as follows:
- Aluminum inventory: 35,000 tons, a decrease of 16.7% month - on - month.
- Copper inventory: 28,000 tons, a decrease of 20% month - on - month.
- Stainless steel inventory: 75,000 tons, a decrease of 15.7% month - on - month.
- Carbon steel inventory: 72,000 tons, a decrease of 11.1% month - on - month.
The significant reduction in inventory indicates that the company's production and sales are highly coordinated, and the market demand for its products is strong, enabling the company to quickly sell off its products and maintain a healthy inventory level.
- Aluminum: The booming new energy vehicle and photovoltaic industries continued to drive the strong demand for aluminum products. In addition, the application of aluminum in the construction of high - speed rail and urban rail transit projects also increased significantly.
- Copper: The acceleration of power grid transformation and the large - scale construction of new energy power stations led to a substantial recovery in copper demand. Moreover, the development of emerging industries such as artificial intelligence and big data also increased the demand for high - quality copper products.
- Stainless steel: The demand in the building decoration, kitchenware and tableware industries maintained a steady growth trend. The demand for high - end stainless steel in high - end residential buildings, luxury hotels and other projects was particularly prominent.
- Carbon steel: The continuous acceleration of infrastructure projects, such as the construction of expressways, bridges and large - scale industrial parks, continuously released the demand for construction steel.
- Aluminum prices remained stable at a relatively high level due to the strong demand and the limited increase in production capacity. The new energy - related aluminum product prices even showed a slight upward trend.
- Copper prices continued to rise driven by the strong demand and the impact of global supply shortages. The prices of high - purity and high - performance copper products increased more significantly.
- Stainless steel prices were affected by the stable prices of raw materials nickel and chromium, and the overall price was relatively stable. However, the prices of high - end stainless steel products with special properties increased slightly.
- Carbon steel prices rose steadily due to the combined effects of cost - driven factors and strong demand. The prices of high - strength and high - quality carbon steel products increased more obviously.
