The global high-end metal materials market is embracing new development opportunities

As the basic material of modern industry Galvalume Steel, Galvanized Steel, Aluminum Coil/Pipe/Plate, Stainless Steel, Aluzinc Steel and Prepainted Products like Steel are shining brightly in fields such as construction, automobiles, home appliances, and new energy, thanks to their outstanding performance and environmental protection features.

1.Aluminized zinc steel and aluminized zinc alloy steel: The two shining stars in the field of corrosion resistance
Aluminized zinc steel (55% aluminum, 43.4% zinc, 1.6% silicon) has become the preferred material for building roofing and exterior wall enclosure systems due to its outstanding corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Aluminum-zinc alloy steel has further optimized its performance on the basis of aluminum-zinc coated steel. Its corrosion resistance is 2 to 6 times that of ordinary galvanized steel, making it particularly suitable for harsh environments such as coastal areas and chemical plants. According to the latest market research, the global market size of aluminized zinc steel is expected to exceed 15 billion US dollars in 2024, with an annual growth rate remaining above 7%.

2. Galvanized steel: An innovative breakthrough of traditional materials
As the most widely used anti-corrosion steel, galvanized steel is undergoing technological innovation. The new type of high-strength galvanized steel not only maintains excellent anti-corrosion performance but also increases tensile strength by more than 30%, providing an ideal solution for the lightweighting of new energy vehicle bodies. Industry forecasts suggest that by 2026, the global demand for galvanized steel will reach 250 million tons, with high-strength galvanized steel for automobiles accounting for more than 25%.

3. Aluminium materials: Star materials for green transformation
Driven by the "dual carbon" goals, aluminum materials have witnessed explosive growth thanks to their advantages such as lightweight and recyclability. The field of new energy is particularly prominent:
The photovoltaic industry: The annual growth rate of demand for aluminum frames exceeds 20%
The demand for Aluminum Plates used in battery trays for new energy vehicles has soared
Packaging industry: Sustainable aluminum cans are gradually replacing plastic packaging

4. Stainless steel: High-end applications continue to expand
With the development of industries such as medical health and semiconductors, the demand for high-end stainless steel is growing rapidly:
316L medical stainless steel: The preferred choice for surgical instruments and implant materials
Ultra-pure ferritic stainless steel: Key material for semiconductor equipment
Duplex stainless steel: A new favorite in Marine engineering and chemical equipment

5. Color-coated steel plate: A perfect combination of aesthetics and functionality
The new generation of color-coated steel plates, on the basis of traditional anti-corrosion, have added innovative functions such as self-cleaning, heat insulation and photovoltaic integration, and have become an important material for green buildings. Innovative products such as intelligent temperature-adjustable color-coated steel sheets and solar color-coated steel sheets are reshaping the building facade market.
Industry trend: Innovation and sustainability go hand in hand
Material compounding: The research and development of multi-element alloying of coatings and metal matrix composites is accelerating
Process intelligence: Digital twins and AI quality inspection enhance production efficiency and product consistency
Application scenarios: Develop dedicated material solutions for the demands of different industries

Green and low-carbon: The proportion of low-carbon smelting and the application of recycled metals continues to increase！
