LR6 alkaline battery

The future of waste LR6 alkaline battery is not optimistic?

Market analysis

Today, the spot price of 1# lead in Shanghai fell by 75 yuan/ton, and the price of recycled lead fell by 100 yuan/ton. The price of waste LR6 alkaline battery remained stable for the time being, the same as yesterday.

In the early stage, there was a regional shortage of waste LR6 alkaline battery, and the increase in the inventory of refineries before the double holidays led to a relatively strong price for raw waste LR6 alkaline battery. From September 21 to today, the domestic price of recycled lead has fallen by 150 yuan/ton, the domestic price of recycled refined lead has fallen by 225 yuan/ton, and the price of raw waste LR6 alkaline battery has risen by 50 yuan/ton.

Due to the cooler climate, the replacement demand in the lead-acid battery market has shown signs of weakening, and because some downstream companies have not yet digested their pre-holiday inventory, the transaction in the lead spot market has weakened, and the supply of recycled lead market is sufficient, resulting in a relatively weak price of recycled lead.

It is expected that the profit of recycled lead smelting will not increase significantly in the short term, and the enthusiasm of recycled lead refineries to start production has been frustrated. It is expected that the supply of recycled lead this month will be lower than the output in September.

Waste battery:

The Ministry of Environmental Protection issued a new document, and the future is not optimistic!

Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the "Propaganda Work Plan for Fighting the Tough Battle of Pollution Prevention and Control (2018-2020)", indicating that it will further strengthen its determination to rectify environmental protection in the future. The recycling market will still be the focus of rectification. Combined with the recent efforts to rectify the recycling market in many places, the waste battery recycling market is likely to become a qualified consignee market in the future, and dealers will gradually lose their dominance in market pricing.

New battery:

New prices have begun to be implemented, and wholesalers in many places have been cleared out!

Previously, a first-line brand officially issued a price increase letter, announcing that LR6 alkaline battery have entered the 420/620 era. Today, from the feedback of dealers in many places, the new price has begun to be implemented, but what is more terrible is that you still have to queue up for goods, and the shortage period is as long as one month, which can be called the longest battery shortage since 2011!
