Development Status and Strategic Analysis of China's Aluminum Processing Industry

In recent years, with the sustained and healthy growth of China's national economy, the overall strength of China's aluminum industry has continuously improved, and its influence and competitiveness in the international market has become increasingly apparent. Now, China has become a big country in the world aluminum industry, and is currently actively moving towards a world aluminum industry power. However, there have also been some problems, which are both challenges and opportunities for the aluminum processing industry.

The task of energy saving and emission reduction is heavy, and the technical and economic indicators are up to standard.

In 2007, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the “Aluminum Industry Access Conditions”, which not only further improved the access threshold of the aluminum processing industry, but also required the comprehensive energy consumption, metal consumption and yield of various technical and economic indicators of existing aluminum processing enterprises to reach Set the threshold. In recent years, China's aluminum processing industry in terms of technical and economic indicators and threshold levels, in addition to the rate of melting and casting has reached the standard, and other indicators have a large gap, especially comprehensive energy consumption, to reach the standard is very arduous.

There are many general products, few high-end products, lack of world brands and famous enterprises.

Since 2005, China's aluminum has been exported more than imported, but most of our exports are low-end products, and most of the imports are high-tech products. Moreover, most of China is imitation of foreign alloys and varieties, and its own innovative alloys and unique varieties are few. According to statistics, there are more than 300 international brands in aluminum and aluminum alloys. China did not have one until March 2007. Others, such as copper and copper alloys, have no international brands registered in China. In fact, apart from China Aluminum Corporation, China lacks well-known and well-known enterprises at home and abroad, and there is no domestic and international aluminum brand recognized.

China's aluminum processing enterprises are small in scale, large in number, and low in intensification

With the development of the market economy, after the integration of the fittest, mergers and acquisitions, the extrusion enterprises can be reduced to about 350, the rolling enterprises will be reduced to 150, and the aluminum foil enterprises will be reduced to 50 or so. Optimized structure.

Low corporate literacy and weak independent innovation

The low level of enterprise literacy is low in management level and innovation ability, while the low quality of employees is mainly reflected in the low level of operation and weak innovation ability. Improving the quality of enterprises and the quality of employees is one of the biggest challenges faced by aluminum industry enterprises.

Investment is blind, and it continues to develop rapidly.

The degree of integration between China and the world economy is deepening, and the degree of becoming a world manufacturing base is also growing. As the basic raw material for national economic construction, aluminum can only meet the needs of economic development if it increases with the development of the economy. It is precisely because investors have seen this huge market demand at home and abroad, and the continuous maturity and improvement of China's aluminum smelting and aluminum processing technology, is investing heavily in China's aluminum processing industry. During the period from 2002 to 2010, the investment in the strip foil project was about 100 billion yuan, which was 9.5 times of the total investment in 1953-2001. The average annual investment was 11 billion yuan, and the hot rolling production capacity was 4 million tons/ a, cold rolling 3 million t / a, double zero foil 250,000 t / a; investment in extruded materials project about 10.5 billion yuan, forming a capacity of about 1.2 million t / a. The formation of such a large production capacity in 9 years is also unique in the history of the world aluminum processing industry.

To sum up, the development of China's aluminum processing industry should open up development ideas, strengthen the combination of institutional innovation and technological innovation, and establish a scientific and technological integration model combining original research and development platforms and industrialized entities to build a new aluminum sheet and foil processing. The industrial chain is stronger and bigger. China's aluminum processing industry should be based in China and the world, accurately grasp the world's latest advanced technology and application consumption trends, establish a market-oriented product technology development system, and develop new products that have an important role in the development of the national economy and have market potential. New materials and mature process technologies that are compatible with large production. Rationally utilize and allocate resources, strengthen the close relationship between industries, optimize product structure, and store replacement products with high technological content and high added value with long-term vitality, form proprietary technology with independent intellectual property rights and corresponding technological equipment, and expand The range of product specifications and specifications will enhance the comprehensive economic indicators and the quality of leading products, further enhance the international competitiveness of the aluminum sheet and foil industry, and form a large-scale modern enterprise group with world competitiveness.
