What Yongjie New Materials Co. does

Yongjie New Materials Co. (永杰新材料股份有限公司) is a Chinese manufacturer of high-performance, high-precision aluminum alloy plate, strip, and foil products, headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Founded in 2003, the company operates the full production process chain from casting-rolling to hot continuous rolling, producing aluminum products across 1xxx through 8xxx alloy series with thicknesses spanning 0.0055 mm (ultra-thin foil) to 400 mm (plate). Yongjie listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange Main Board in March 2025 under stock code 603271, and in June 2026 completed the acquisition of Arconic's Chinese aluminum operations—Arconic (Qinhuangdao) and Arconic (Kunshan)—for approximately RMB 1.605 billion (USD 236 million), adding two additional manufacturing sites and expanding into heat transfer brazing materials, metal packaging, and automotive panels.

The company's product portfolio serves lithium battery applications (battery aluminum foil, aluminum-plastic film foil for soft-pack batteries, and structural components such as battery housings, covers, and enclosures), consumer electronics (smartphone and laptop casings, electronic components, semiconductor substrates), vehicle lightweighting (automotive structural components, rail transit, marine), heat transfer and thermal management (heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators), and new building materials. Its lithium-ion power battery structural component product carries the National Manufacturing Single Champion Product designation from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the proprietary 1A25 aluminum alloy grade is registered with the National Nonferrous Metals Standardization Technical Committee. The company has developed self-developed high-performance ultra-thin aluminum foil technology with patent protection extended into Japan, South Korea, Europe, and the United States, and co-developed national standards for battery structural materials and SEM-based aluminum failure analysis.

Yongjie employs over 2,500 people, operates 400,000 tons per year of plate, strip, and foil capacity (with the Arconic acquisition materially expanding this footprint), and generated approximately RMB 9.64 billion in revenue in 2025 according to the financial dataset. Revenue is earned through one-time direct B2B transactions with enterprise customers, priced via custom quotes that vary by alloy, specifications, order volume, and contract terms. The company runs a sales-led go-to-market model with dedicated sales engineers providing pre-sale technical guidance, custom R&D, prototyping, and after-sale quality support, exporting to over 50 countries and regions including Europe and the Americas. The YJL trademark is recognized as a Chinese Well-Known Trademark, and Yongjie Aluminum (a wholly-owned subsidiary) was designated a National Green Factory in 2024.

Broad incumbents

• Novelis: Global leader in aluminum rolling and recycling, owned by Hindalco Industries. Major supplier of aluminum sheet for automotive (lightweighting), beverage cans, and specialty applications; competes with Yongjie in automotive lightweighting and battery-grade aluminum but at far greater global scale and with strong recycled aluminum positioning.
• Constellium: European and US-based aluminum rolled products manufacturer serving aerospace, automotive, and packaging markets. Comparable on technical aluminum alloy development and high-precision foil products, particularly for automotive lightweighting and high-end packaging applications where Yongjie competes.
• Aluminum Corporation of China (CHALCO): State-owned vertically integrated aluminum major covering bauxite mining, smelting, and rolling. The dominant incumbent in Chinese aluminum flat-rolled products with broader portfolio and downstream integration; competes with Yongjie on battery foil and automotive sheet but at much larger scale across multiple aluminum product categories.

Direct peers

• AMAG Austria Metall AG: Austrian aluminum rolled products manufacturer with strong position in high-precision sheet for automotive, aerospace, and packaging. Comparable to Yongjie in high-end specialty aluminum alloy strip and foil, particularly serving European premium customers that Yongjie targets through export channels.
• Granges AB: Swedish aluminum products specialist focused on brazing materials for heat exchangers and battery foil. Direct competitor in the heat transfer / brazing aluminum sheet segment and in battery foil for European battery makers, providing a relevant international benchmark for Yongjie's heat transfer product line.
• Nanshan Aluminum: One of China's largest integrated aluminum flat-rolled producers, with deep presence in aerospace, automotive, and packaging aluminum sheet/foil. Directly competes with Yongjie across the 1xxx-8xxx alloy series and serves overlapping lithium battery and EV customers, but operates at significantly larger scale.
• UACJ Corporation: Major Japanese aluminum sheet and foil manufacturer serving global battery, automotive, and electronics markets. Highly comparable on product mix (battery foil, capacitor foil, brazing sheet for heat exchangers) and serves as the technology benchmark for Asian aluminum flat-rolled producers including Yongjie.
• Henan Mingtai Al. Industrial: Major Chinese aluminum sheet, strip, and foil manufacturer with comparable product portfolio spanning battery foil, capacitor foil, and packaging foil. Closest direct competitor to Yongjie in domestic market share rankings and serves similar B2B customer base in lithium batteries, electronics, and construction.

Regional players

• Shandong Xinfa Aluminum: Major Chinese aluminum producer with operations in alumina refining, smelting, and aluminum processing. Competes with Yongjie primarily in domestic Chinese markets on aluminum sheet and strip, though with a less specialized focus on battery foil and high-end alloy grades where Yongjie differentiates.

Emerging players

• Lotus Renewable Power: Asian packaging-focused aluminum foil converter serving pharmaceutical and food packaging applications. Adjacent competitor in the aluminum packaging foil segment where Yongjie sells pharmaceutical foil and double-zero foil, but focused specifically on downstream converting rather than primary foil production.
