As a professional supplier who has been deeply involved in the export of aluminum sheets products for more than 20 years, we have always taken "controllable costs, traceable quality, and reliable services" as our core competitiveness. The following is a competitive aluminum sheet purchase plan from three aspects: price composition, market positioning, and quality assurance.
1. Price composition: transparent cost system
In the current international market, how much does aluminum sheet cost is significantly affected by factors such as aluminum ingot price, processing technology, and surface treatment. Taking the market data in July 2025 as an example, the FOB price range of mainstream alloy types is as follows:
- 1050 pure aluminum sheet: thickness 0.5-6.0mm, price range 3000-3200 US dollars/ton, suitable for food packaging, electronic substrates and other fields with high corrosion resistance requirements.
- 3003 alloy aluminum sheet: thickness 1.0-10.0mm, price range 3000-3200 US dollars/ton, because it contains manganese elements to enhance strength, it is widely used in building curtain walls and automotive interiors.
5052 alloy aluminum sheet: thickness 2.0-20.0mm, price range 3000-3500 USD/ton, high magnesium content, suitable for high-strength scenarios such as shipbuilding and pressure vessels.
Source of our aluminum sheet cost advantage:
- Large-scale procurement: Signing a long-term agreement with large domestic aluminum companies, the purchase price of aluminum ingots is 8%-12% lower than the market average.
- Process optimization: The self-developed cold rolling production line controls the processing loss within 3%, which is 5% lower than the industry average.
- Localized collaboration: 80% of the surface treatment (such as anodizing and fluorocarbon spraying) is completed by adjacent factories, saving 15% of logistics costs.
2. Market positioning: Accurately matching needs
Our pricing strategy takes into account market stratification and customer customization:
- Standardized products:
For conventional needs such as construction materials, general machinery, etc., we provide spot inventory support, orders within 500 tons can be delivered within 7 days, and the price is 5%-8% lower than peers.
- High-end customization:
Provide special aluminium sheet alloys (such as 7075-T6) and precision machining (tolerance ±0.05mm) for aerospace, new energy vehicles and other fields. Although the cost increases by 20%-30%, it still maintains a price advantage of 15% through large-scale production.
- Price stability guarantee:
Real-time linkage with LME aluminum prices, providing price locking service within 1 month to avoid the risk of raw material fluctuations.
Accept flexible payment methods such as T/T and L/C, and the prepayment ratio can be negotiated for large orders.
3. Quality assurance: full process control system
- Raw material traceability
All aluminum ingots come from suppliers certified by ISO 9001:2015, and each batch is accompanied by an SGS test report to ensure that the chemical composition deviation is less than 0.1%.
Each roll of plate is sampled using a spectrometer, and the impurity content is controlled below 0.03%.
- Production process verification
The cold rolling process achieves a thickness tolerance of ±1.5% through a closed-loop control system, which is better than the ±3% of the ASTM B209 standard.
The surface treatment line is equipped with an automatic film thickness detector, the fluorocarbon coating thickness deviation is <2μm, and the salt spray test is >1000 hours.
- International certification endorsement
The products comply with mainstream standards such as EN 485 (Europe) and JIS H4000 (Japan), and some models are UL and CE certified.
A third-party test report is attached to each order, and the destination port inspection is supported. Unqualified products can be returned unconditionally.
4. Service Commitment: From Order to Delivery
- Technical Support: Provide free material selection suggestions and processing technology optimization solutions, such as designing lightweight structures for automotive customers, saving 12% of material costs.
- Logistics Solution: Cooperate with COSCO and MAERSK to provide door-to-door transportation services, increase the container loading rate to 95%, and the freight is 10% lower than the market price.
- After-sales response: 7×24-hour technical hotline, quality disputes are resolved within 48 hours, and annual customer satisfaction reaches 98%.
