SMM A00 Aluminum Ingot(CNY/mt)
On June 4th, the price of SMM A00 aluminum increased by CNY130/Mt compared with the previous trading day.Trump announced that he would increase tariffs on Chinese imports of steel, aluminum and related products from 25% to 50%, effective June 4, 2025. The implementation of this policy not only affects China's aluminum exports, but also suppresses the liquidity of global aluminum trade, especially for countries that are highly dependent on exports to the United States. In the short term, it will increase the pressure of regional oversupply, and the decline in demand will suppress the aluminum price. At present, the total inventory of aluminum ingots is 519,000 tons, an increase of 8,000 tons from the previous month, and the inventory of aluminum billets is 127,700 tons, a decrease of 600 tons from the previous month. Aluminum ingots have accumulated slightly after the holiday, but the performance of automobiles on the demand side exceeded expectations. The month-on-month weakening of demand in June was less than expected. Aluminum ingots are expected to maintain the rhythm of destocking but the amplitude is narrowed. The low inventory still supports prices.

Which to choose between color coated aluminum coil and color coated steel coil?

Choosing According to Cost
Material cost: The material cost of color coated aluminum coil is higher than that of color coated steel coil. If it is a temporary building, it is more inclined to choose color coated steel coil.
Maintain cost: The colored aluminum coil has good corrosion resistance, weather resistance, and powder resistance, and almost does not require repair or refurbishment. The durability of color coated steel coils is inferior to that of colored aluminum coils. In extreme weather or harsh environments, they may experience extensive fading, severe rusting, and require frequent maintenance or refurbishment. The cost of use is higher than that of coated aluminum coils
Choosing According to Building design requirements
Color: Both colored aluminum coils and color coated steel coils have various colors and patterns to choose from, but the color durability of color coated aluminum coils is better than that of color coated steel coils, so they are more commonly used in public projects such as railways, gyms, schools, etc. that require high durability
Shape: Colored aluminum coil has good ductility and plasticity, making it easier to form complex shapes during processing. It can also be bent, stamped, and other operations without damaging the original coating to meet the needs of different architectural styles. Color steel coils have high hardness and may require more specialized tools and techniques to achieve the desired effect.


Choosing According to Application requirement
Buildings with lightweight requirements: Color coated aluminum coils are lightweight and suitable for applications that require reducing structural burden, such as exterior wall decoration of high-rise buildings or the construction of mobile facilities. Color coated steel coils have high hardness and strong load-bearing capacity, making them suitable for use as load-bearing structural components, such as roofs and walls in industrial plants.
High humidity, coastal buildings: 3003/3004 color coated aluminum coils have excellent corrosion resistance and chemical resistance, and also have strong durability in humid or marine environments. Color coated steel coils may rust under extreme conditions and are not suitable for use in high humidity and severely corrosive environments.
