At the end of 2018, overseas graphite electrodes suppliers began bidding for contract negotiations in 2019. Due to the low price of international graphite electrode, domestic graphite electrode manufacturers were trying to sign long term contracts 3 to 5 years and the contract price is 20% to 30% higher than the end of 2017. Currently, the current UHP 600 contract price is 11000~12000USD/t. As of December 25, 2018, 70% of contract negotiations have been completed.
Japanese graphite electrodes manufacturers singed the purchase intention for the whole year of 2019. The price is preset according to the seasons or half year. The price is slightly higher than 2018, and the adjusted price is about 15~20% higher than America.
With the continuous release of graphite electrodes production capacity in the United States and Japan, and the regular signing of medium and long-term contracts, the pricing level and rules of foreign graphite electrode suppliers provide a certain reference for China’s graphite electrode exporters.
