Today, the economy is booming, and so is the beverage industry. At the same time, the demand for aluminum alloy plate cans and rings has also increased in a short period of time. At present, there are many aluminum product manufacturers in China engaged in the production of aluminum alloy cans and rings. Taking 5182 aluminum alloy as an example, the domestic aluminum alloy material market is analyzed.

5182 Aluminum Alloy Market Analysis

5182 aluminum alloy is mainly used to manufacture cans and rings of aluminum material. Aluminum cans have the characteristics of light weight, good heat resistance, good electrical conductivity, tasteless and non-toxic. Also, bright colors and patterns can be easily printed on it. What's more, aluminum cans can be recycled, which is good for our living environment. Therefore, from the 1980s, the demand for aluminum cans has been increasing. Therefore, 4x8 aluminum sheet occupy an important seat in the field of beverage packaging in the world, especially in developing countries, such as Brazil, India, and China. There is a lot of room for development, and the growth rate will remain at 8%.

5182 aluminum alloy is the main alloy for aluminum can rings. The bottom of the aluminum ring is mainly made of 3004 and 5052 aluminum alloys. In addition to aluminum cans, these alloys can also be used to produce other packaging containers. As the beverage industry gets better and better, 5182 aluminum alloy will face more challenges and opportunities. 5182 aluminum alloy cannot be heat treated, but has high strength, good deformation resistance and weldability. Therefore, it is also highly suitable for shipbuilding, aircraft fuel tanks, pipelines, and vehicles.


At present, the market situation of 5182 aluminum alloy can material and ring material is good. Large manufacturers, such as Huawei Aluminum, can provide 5182 aluminum alloy with high quality and stable performance, which can meet international standards. Manufacturers engaged in deep processing of aluminum should seize this opportunity to research new products suitable for various applications. Only in this way can we gradually become more competitive.
