In today's industrial market, aluminum coils are widely used in many fields such as construction, automobiles, aerospace, etc. due to their advantages such as lightness, corrosion resistance and plasticity. As a Canada aluminum coil supplier, we are committed to providing customers with high-quality aluminum coil products and serving global customers with transparent pricing strategies, excellent product performance and sustainable production systems. According to international market prices, export data and cost structure analysis, the aluminum coil price per pound is roughly in the range of US$1.2-1.5.
Currently, our standard industrial grade aluminum coils (such as 3003 aluminum alloy, thickness 0.5-2.0mm) are quoted at 1.3-1.8 Canadian dollars/pound (approximately US$1.0-1.20/pound), which includes the following core cost elements:
- Raw material cost:
Based on the LME aluminum price (US$2589.50/ton, about US$1.175/pound on July 18, 2025), combined with the advantages of Canada's local bauxite resources, it accounts for 55%-60% of the total cost.
- Energy cost:
Quebec and other production areas use 100% hydropower energy, and the electricity cost is only 0.06-0.08 US dollars/kWh, which is significantly lower than Europe (0.15-0.20 US dollars/kWh), accounting for 30%-35% of the production cost.
- Processing premium:
High-precision rolling (tolerance ±1.5%), surface pretreatment (such as anodizing) and other value-added services, accounting for 10%-15% of the price.
Differentiated quotation strategy of aluminum coil product:
- Industry customized solutions:
Construction industry: High weather-resistant color coated aluminum coil (polyester coating) is quoted at 1.45-1.80 Canadian dollars/pound, meeting ASTM B209 standards, and a warranty period of 15 years.
Automotive industry: Lightweight 5052 alloy aluminum coil (tensile strength ≥215MPa) is quoted at 1.60-2.00 Canadian dollars/pound, in line with AAMA 615.20 certification.
- Bulk order discount:
Annual purchase volume ≥ 500 tons, enjoy 3%-5% aluminum coil price discount;
Long-term agreement customers get additional LME price fluctuation hedging service.
Core advantages of BCM’s aluminum coil product:
1. Quality control of the entire industry chain
- Certification system:
CSA certification covers production equipment safety standards (such as CSA B44 elevator material certification);
Aviation-grade products are AS9100D certified to meet the supply chain requirements of Boeing and Airbus.
- Testing capabilities:
The laboratory is equipped with Bruker spectrometer (accuracy ±0.01%) and universal material testing machine (load 500kN);
EN 10002-1 tensile test report is provided for each batch of products.
2. Sustainable production system
- Environmental certification:
Carbon emissions from electrolytic aluminum production ≤4 tons CO₂/ton (industry average 6.5 tons).
Scrap aluminum recycling rate is 98%, in line with the EU's "New Battery Regulation" requirements for supply chain transparency.
- Energy structure:
Hydropower accounts for 92%, and the proportion of renewable energy use ranks among the top aluminum companies in the world.
3. Highlights of technological innovation
- Surface treatment technology:
Nano ceramic coating (thickness 2-5μm) salt spray resistance test > 1000 hours, 3 times higher than traditional anodizing;
Wood grain transfer technology can achieve 95% natural wood texture restoration.
- Processing accuracy:
Width tolerance ±0.1mm (specifications below 1000mm), better than the industry standard ±0.3mm.
