Europe Aluminum Wire Price Trend

Q3 2025:

During Q3 2025, the aluminum wire price index in Europe showed moderate but steady growth as regional energy expenses remained elevated, particularly due to sustained electricity tariffs affecting smelting operations. Producers across Germany, France, and Italy faced increased input costs stemming from high power prices, which directly impacted billet conversion margins. Demand from the renewable energy sector, especially for solar and wind installations, strengthened, while the automotive industry’s shift toward electric vehicle (EV) production supported consistent consumption of conductive aluminum products.

Q2 2025:

During the second quarter, aluminum wire prices across Europe moved steadily lower. The pressure came from a combination of oversupply and weaker demand across key manufacturing centers. Producers increased capacity and inventories piled up, but the appetite from downstream sectors was insufficient to absorb the material, which kept prices sliding throughout the period. On the cost side, producers benefited from cheaper alumina and more favorable energy inputs, which made production less expensive. However, these savings failed to translate into stronger market confidence. With consumption falling short, especially in heavy industry and infrastructure, the cost reductions did little more than keep some producers afloat rather than firming up price levels. Industrial demand showed visible strain. Orders from machinery, automotive, and construction segments slowed, particularly in Germany and its neighboring markets, which have long been anchors of European demand.
