Statistics from the General Administration of Customs, China's primary aluminum in September dropped by 16% month on month and by 31.7% year on year to around 137,000 tons, indicating a weaker market demand recently.

Among them, Russia remained China’s largest supplier of primary aluminum, with a supply of 65,200 tons, accounting for 47.59% of total imports in September.

Data also showed that exports from major primary aluminum suppliers, including Russia, have declined, indicating that the global primary aluminum market may face challenges such as oversupply, weak demand, or uncertainty in the trade environment at the current stage.
