Overview
In 2024, antimony prices hit historic highs as the industry ushers in an era of "New Situation, Pattern, and Development". During the year, the world sees escalated geopolitical conflicts, frequent volatility in global finance markets, and distinct differentiation in global economic recovery. As China tightens its hold on export of antimony, the global price difference of antimony products changed dramatically, and the supply pattern is facing adjustment. In light of China's push for low-carbon development and green transformation, antimony raw materials producers are facing enormous environmental pressure while keeping a low operating rate. The downstream flame retardant and photovoltaic markets also encountered development bottlenecks, and the end market entered a new round of adjustment.
How will the global antimony resource supply pattern shift in 2025? How will China adjust its antimony export control policies? How will the development direction of the European and American markets evolve? How can Chinese upstream and downstream enterprises resolve their pressures on high cost? How will the price trend of antimony products develop in the future?
First established in 2012, the Antimony Forum hosted by Asian Metal is dedicated to become a global forum summit event for antimony industry. Attracting hundreds of companies around the world each year, the Forum has been successfully held in places like Bangkok, Lisbon, Madrid, Changsha, Zhangjiajie, Kunming, Sanya and Zhuhai. In the eleventh year of the Forum, antimony industry elites from around the world will gather in Xiamen, China on March 20-21, 2025 to collectively explore the new era of development of antimony industry.
