Liaoyang Zhongwang Superior Aluminium Fabrication Co and Liaoning Zhongwang Group Co are countering trouble owing to substantial losses and business oppression, as per the statement Zhongwang delivered to the Hong Kong stock exchange, without any further clarification.

The world second-largest and Asia’s biggest producer of aluminium extrusions are broadly consumed in multiple sectors like transport, construction and electronics industries.

Zhongwang is the world's second-biggest manufacturer of aluminium extrusions widely used in the transport, construction and electronics industries. As the group has sold its smelting unit, so it requires purchasing aluminium ingots in order to manufacture products.

On 15th October 2021, aluminium prices on the SHFE escalated as much as 3.9% in night trading to RMB 24,700 ($3,834) a tonne, the sky-high since May 2006, as restraints on energy usage by smelters mislay the market dreaded a supply shortage.

In April, Zhongwang said in its 2020 annual report: “The Company had not entered into any aluminium ingot forward contracts to hedge against aluminium ingot price fluctuation risk."

Moreover, the aluminium extruder Zhongwang, which is headquartered with its vital production base is in the city of Liaoyang, the northeastern province of Liaoning, one of the Chinese regions hardest hit by widespread power crisis that have cramped industrial production.

Outlook for the Indian Aluminium Industry

Zhongwang further said: “The subsidiaries are unable to overcome the difficulties on their own notwithstanding many efforts made and are engaged in active communications with relevant parties in a bid to help ensure smooth and orderly operations.”

Since 30th August, the stock trading of Zhongwang has been on suspension due to the pending publication of the metal company’s financial results for H1 2021.
