On month on month comparison, aluminium foil exports rose 8.8% from the October export volume of 104963 tonnes, according to data from China Customs. 

According to Shanghai Metals Market, higher value-added tax (VAT) rebates on aluminium products from November and lower SHFE and LME price ratios buoyed exports in November. Concerns among overseas buyers about additional tariffs also accounted for the higher exports.
