Aluminum Flat Products Market Analysis
Flat rolling processing transforms an aluminum ingot known as a slab into a thinner product or a plate, resulting in aluminum flat products. Aluminum flat products are widely used in the production of cans, foil, automobile bodies, and equipment and machinery, which may boost demand for aluminum flat products. The global aluminum flat products market is expected to be driven by rising demand for lightweight components in the automotive industry. Household utensils, packages, closures, building interiors and exteriors, roofs, and home electric appliances are just a few of the applications for aluminum flat products. Aluminum cans, for example, have a higher recycling rate than other packaging materials. They are light, stackable, and durable, allowing brands to package and transport more beverages with less material.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
Despite the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic is still transforming the growth of various industries, the outbreak's immediate impact is varied.
