China’s primary aluminum production maintained stable growth in April 2026, laying a solid foundation for the robust supply of premium aluminum sheets, bars, tubes and custom machined components, according to official data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) . The steady output expansion mirrors the strong fundamentals of China’s aluminum industry, offering global buyers reliable, cost-effective, and high-performance aluminum products for diverse industrial applications.
In April 2026, China’s electrolytic aluminum (primary aluminum) output reached 3.87 million metric tons (mt), representing a 3.1% year-on-year (YoY) increase . For the January~April period, cumulative production hit 15.33 million mt, up 3.5% YoY, reflecting consistent operational efficiency at domestic smelters and balanced capacity utilization amid firm global demand . This sustained growth ensures a stable raw material base for downstream aluminum processing, supporting the delivery of high standard finished products to international markets.
The broader non-ferrous metals sector also showed positive momentum. April’s total output of ten major non-ferrous metals stood at 6.94 million mt, a 2.8% YoY rise. The January~April cumulative volume reached 27.45 million mt, up 3.3% YoY. Meanwhile, the value added of the non-ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing industry dipped 1.0% YoY in April but edged up 1.5% YoY in the first four months, indicating a resilient industrial chain and optimized production structure .
