One of the characteristics of Chinese aluminum profile processing techniques is the combination of advance and backwardness. The technology and equipment in some enterprises has reached the international advanced level. While for some middle-sized and small sized enterprises it still remains the 1970s-90s level.

In 2012, with the huge scale infrastructure investment and fast development of industrialization process in China, the production and consumption of aluminum profile industry increased quickly. And China has therefore become the biggest aluminum profile production base and consumption market in the world. After as long as 10 years of fast development, the aluminum profile industry in China has stepped into a new developing stage and taken on many new developing trends.

In China, the industrial aluminum profiles account for around 30% of the total aluminum profile consumption. They are mainly used for public transportation industry(including car production industry and rail transportation industry), equipment and machinery production industry, durable consumer goods industry(including light industry), etc., accounting for about 10%, 10% and 12% respectively in aluminum profile applications in China. While in the aluminum profile consumption structure in Europe, North America and Japan, industrial aluminum profile consumption percentage is 60%, 55%, and 40% respectively, far higher than that of China. So it is estimated that for the upcoming 5-10 years, the industrial aluminum profile consumption in China will increase constantly. The percentage of industrial aluminum profile consumption will rise from 30% to 45-50% in 2015 in China.

With the vast development of aluminum profile industry, the excellent domestic aluminum profile enterprises are paying more and more attention to the industrial aluminum profile market research, especially on the enterprises’ development environment as well as the changes of clients’ demand trend. It is because of this that a lot of excellent domestic aluminum profile brands develop quickly and gradually become leaders in the aluminum profile industries!

In 2012, the demand for domestic industrial aluminum profiles reached 4 million tons. In the future, the application space for aluminum profiles in the industrial field will be very big. Among the 124 industry departments in China, 113 departments use aluminum products, accounting for 91%.
