China Aluminum Network reported that with the development of light weight cars in China, demand of aluminum is stipulating in China. Bullet train, metro even lorry will use more and more secondary aluminium in the future. China’s auto industry needs more than 1,000,000 tonnes of secondary aluminium.

Also with the promotion of national building energy efficiency policy, the demand of energy conservation aluminum alloy doors and windows and heat insulation aluminium profiles will largely improve as well. At present, the undecided policy is the biggest obstacle in secondary aluminium industry also with endless environmental questions to secondary nonferrous metals industry.

Auto industry is the development direction for aluminum scrap recycling only building field also likely to develop secondary aluminum industry. About 50% of buildings’ heat is reduced through the application of aluminum wood composite windows. Aluminum plastic composite windows together with Low E glass can reduce the heat loss.
