China’s aluminium rod market is losing momentum as export demand weakens and processing fees continue to slide. 📉

Factory inventories have now crossed 10,000 tonnes while processing fees have fallen by RMB 50–100 per tonne week on week.

With production still relatively high and export orders shrinking, the supply-demand imbalance is becoming harder to ignore.

Will domestic demand recover fast enough to ease the pressure on producers?

The FIFA World Cup 2026 could bring more than just football fever to the UK; it could create a major aluminium recycling opportunity.

An estimated 2 billion drink cans may be used during the tournament, carrying a potential recyclable value of around GBP 28.5 million if collected and recycled properly.

For fans, it is a simple action. For the aluminium industry, it is another reminder of how valuable circular packaging can be.

Every empty can has the potential to return as a new product in just weeks. The real win is keeping aluminium in the loop.

Europe’s aluminium recycling market is demanding more from every tonne of scrap — higher recovery, better purity, lower energy use and stronger compliance.

For Shandong Luyou, this is exactly where its recycling equipment claims to fit in.

In an exclusive conversation with AL Circle, Luyou explains how its aluminium scrap processing solutions are designed for markets where scrap availability is limited but recycling rate requirements are rising. From precision separation and EU CE-certified products to intelligent load matching, variable frequency drives and full-line integration, the company is positioning itself as a practical, cost-efficient alternative for recyclers aiming to improve profitability and operational reliability.

The highlight? Luyou claims around 99 per cent non-ferrous separation efficiency, 15–20 per cent electricity savings compared to competitors, and a targeted investment payback period of 2–3 years.

As Europe pushes harder on circularity, resource security and low-carbon production, equipment performance may become one of the biggest deciding factors in the future of aluminium recycling.

“LME aluminium price improves but remains below $3,500/t; stocks continue to decline” 📈

LME aluminium showed a mild recovery, but the market still failed to break above the USD 3,500/t level, keeping price sentiment cautious.

💰 Cash bid rose 0.29% to USD 3,498/t
📊 3-month reference price gained 1.04%
📉 LME stocks fell 0.89% to 324,825 tonnes

A stronger price close and falling inventories point to improving momentum, but the sub-USD 3,500/t level remains the key resistance to watch.
