"In 2023, driven by the rapid advancements in new energy vehicles and photovoltaics, China’s aluminium market has experienced substantial growth. This expansion signals immense potential for further development in the years ahead. Additionally, aluminium, known for its lightweight properties and recyclability, continues to gain favour across global markets and industries, especially in the context of sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. Against this backdrop, ALUMINIUM CHINA 2024 is scheduled to be co-located with Copper China and Asia’s Lightweight Automotive Trade Fair. This resourceful integration aims to maximize opportunities for global buyers and suppliers within the non-ferrous metals industry and related application sectors. By providing a comprehensive business platform, the event fosters business cooperation, technology sharing and networking, contributing to the overall growth and innovation in the industry," stated Chris Zang, Senior Project Director at RX Greater China.

Converging global resources on one platform with an unprecedented scale
