Aluminium re-rollers are decreasing scrap procurement. At the same time, demand for secondary aluminium alloy is weakening whose main material is aluminium scrap.Aluminium scrap generation is gradually increasing toward summer. On the other hand, aluminium re-rollers are decreasing scrap procurement when their production of construction materials is stagnant and they prefer primary aluminium ingot which is cheaper than high grade alminium scrap.As to secondary aluminium alloy, a major alloy maker continues output reduction for automakers by 10% since auto sales are declining mainly in North America. Domestic alloy production is also impacted by the increase of alloy export from South Korea and China since April.
