Nickel is one of the raw materials for the plating of products such as sink faucets and shower column set. 300 ʻO ka sericallys srainless me nickel e like me ka nui o ka mea nui i hoʻohana nuiʻia i loko o kaʻoihana maikaʻi. ʻO ka piʻiʻana o nā kumukūʻai Nickel e manaʻoʻia e loaʻa kahi hopena i nāʻoihana hana.
Ua hoʻopauʻo Indonesia i ka pāpā, nickel kumukūʻai skyroko
The Indonesian official finally confirmed that a ban on nickel ore exports will be imposed on January 1, 2020, ʻElua mau makahiki ma mua o ka manawa i hoʻolahaʻia ma mua. If the ban is implemented in advance, ʻO ka mana o ka Indonesia o Indonesia i loko o ka hana o Indonesia, ka mea e manaʻoʻia e kumu i kahi pōkole koʻikoʻi o nā waiwai o ka honua ma mua 2022. In the current global nickel market, there has been a narrow gap. Raise the price of nickel sharply.
In July of this year, ʻO nā lono e pili ana i ka papa inoa o kaʻu pāpā ma Indonesia, driving nickel prices to rise sharply. Mawaena o lakou, ʻO keʻano nui o Shanghai Nickel Rose e 11.09% a 16.13% in July and August, pakahi. The increase of LME nickel in July and August was 14.70% a 23.57% pakahi.
E like me ka hoʻololiʻana o Shanghai, ʻO Kina ka mea hoʻohana nui loa o ka honua o Nickel, me ka hoopau ana 1.14 miliona miliona i loko 2017, Waihona Kūpono 53.4% O ka nui o ka wai honua. Ma muli o ke kumu o nā kumuwaiwai Nickel, ʻO ka nui o ka nui o ka mea i hoʻopiliʻia e koiʻia.
Wahi a kaʻikepili o ka hoʻokele nui o nā hana maʻamau, the total import volume of China’s nickel ore and concentrates in 2018 jii 46,992,300 Tons, of which Indonesia’s imports were 1,501,500 Tons, a me ko Philippines’ nā mea hoʻopuka 30,082,000 Tons, Waihona Kūpono 31.96% a 63.86% pakahi. Inā loaʻaʻole ka inoa Indonesia i kaʻu pāpā, China will be seriously affected and manufacturers will face further pressure from rising costs.
Stainless steel faucet is the most affected
He koi nui ka lumi kuke a me ka ukana. The largest amount is stainless steel faucet. The GB/T 35763-2017 “ʻO nā mea kila kila” 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 ʻO ke kila maikaʻi e like me ka mea nui. 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.
I ka manawa like, No ka meaʻo Nickel ka pale o ka corrosion e kū'ē ana, 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. No laila, 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. ʻo kahi laʻana, a listed sanitary ware company has seen an increase in total nickel emissions in recent years. I 2017, total nickel emissions were 0.0231 Tons, A i 2018 it reached 0.0382 Tons.
Kahi mea hou aʻe, more and more companies have begun to produce stainless steel bathroom cabinets in recent years, a hoʻohanaʻia ka kila kila e like me nā mea waiwai i nā hale kaukau kūlohelohe. The increase in nickel prices will bring some cost pressure to these enterprises.
