Nickel is one of the raw materials for the plating of products such as sink faucets and shower column set. 300 serieko altzairu herdoilgaitza lehengai nagusi gisa nikela duen industria sanitarioan ere oso erabilia da. Nikelaren prezioen igoerak nolabaiteko eragina izango duela ekoiztetxeetan.
Indonesiak esportazio debekua bizkortu du, nikelaren prezioak gora egiten du
The Indonesian official finally confirmed that a ban on nickel ore exports will be imposed on January 1, 2020, aurretik iragarritako epea baino bi urte lehenago. If the ban is implemented in advance, Indonesian dagoen nikel-burdina ekoizteko ahalmena guztiz ezinezkoa izango da Indonesiako nikel-mearen ekoizpena digeritzeko., eta horrek mundu mailako nikel-baliabideen eskasia larria eragingo duela aurreikusten da 2022. In the current global nickel market, there has been a narrow gap. Raise the price of nickel sharply.
In July of this year, Indonesian meatzearen debekuari buruzko zurrumurruak ugariak dira, driving nickel prices to rise sharply. Haien artean, Shanghaiko nikelaren kontratu nagusia gora egin zuen 11.09% eta 16.13% in July and August, hurrenez hurren. The increase of LME nickel in July and August was 14.70% eta 23.57% hurrenez hurren.
Shanghai Futures Exchange-ren arabera, Txina da nikela munduko kontsumitzaile handiena, ren kontsumoarekin 1.14 milioi tona sartu 2017, Kontabilitatea 53.4% kontsumo global osoaren. Txinan nikel-baliabide nahiko eskasak direlako eta lehengaiek atzerriko materialen mendekotasun handia dutelako, inportatutako nikel mineral kopuru handia behar da.
Aduana Administrazio Orokorraren datuen arabera, the total import volume of China’s nickel ore and concentrates in 2018 zen 46,992,300 tsons, of which Indonesia’s imports were 1,501,500 tsons, eta Filipinak’ Inportazioak ziren 30,082,000 tsons, Kontabilitatea 31.96% eta 63.86% hurrenez hurren. Indonesiak nire debekua ezartzen badu, China will be seriously affected and manufacturers will face further pressure from rising costs.
Stainless steel faucet is the most affected
The kitchen and bathroom industry has a large demand for metallic nickel. The largest amount is stainless steel faucet. The GB/T 35763-2017 “altzairu herdoilgaitzezko txorrota” national standard implemented in July 2018, the units involved in the drafting include JOMOO, Huayi, Primy and other well-known companies. On the e-commerce platform, multiple brands of stainless steel faucets are also available.
It is understood that the stainless steel faucet mainly uses 304 stainless steel as the main raw material. The nickel content of 0.304 stainless steel is 8%-11%. The price of nickel will rise, and the price of stainless steel will rise simultaneously, pulling up the price of related finished products.
Aldi berean, because nickel has good corrosion resistance and ductility, it is often used in the plating surface of bathroom hardware to improve wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The nickel layer of some high-end products can be as thick as tens of microns. Horregatik, some sanitary ware companies that use faucets and showers as their main products often mention nickel in the column of pollutant emissions in their annual reports. Adibidez, a listed sanitary ware company has seen an increase in total nickel emissions in recent years. In 2017, total nickel emissions were 0.0231 tsons, eta barruan 2018 it reached 0.0382 tsons.
Horrez gain, more and more companies have begun to produce stainless steel bathroom cabinets in recent years, and stainless steel is also used as accessories in traditional bathroom cabinets. The increase in nickel prices will bring some cost pressure to these enterprises.
