Asia is now the main destination for global scrap metals, with over half of globally traded scrap flowing into the region. As countries tighten resource security and raw material retention policies, the global scrap trade landscape is undergoing significant structural change. With record-high metal prices and the push for decarbonization, recycled metals have become essential for supply security rather than just cost savings. Across Asia, market shifts are evident: Thailand’s scrap aluminum trade has surged, China has increased reliance on tax-compliant imports, and India’s demand for copper scrap continues to rise. This webinar will highlight the structural changes in Asia’s scrap market and its regional pricing dynamics.
