What is the price of aluminum sheets today?

Updating the price of aluminum sheets daily helps you grasp the market, optimize costs, and plan for suitable material purchases. The question "What is the price of aluminum sheets today?" is not only for welders, engineers, and contractors but is also a common concern for many buyers of materials.

Today's aluminum sheet prices in Vietnam

Currently, aluminum sheets A1050, A5052, A6061, and A7075 range from 70,000 to 200,000 VND/kg. Specifically, the basic A1050 aluminum typically costs 55,000–65,000 VND/kg. A5052 aluminum – a common grade for machining in mechanical and light industrial applications – is around 70,000–85,000 VND/kg. A6061 aluminum – used in structures that require good strength/hard alloy – is commonly priced from 90,000–120,000 VND/kg. The premium A7075 series can cost up to 150,000–200,000 VND/kg.

The above prices are for reference only as the final figures depend on where you buy, whether you purchase whole sheets or cut to order. Particularly, if the specifications are small or the machining technology is complicated (punching, laser cutting, anodizing, powder coating…), the cost can increase by several tens to hundreds of thousands for each sheet.

Why do aluminum sheet prices change continuously?

Domestic aluminum prices often fluctuate significantly based on global aluminum prices and the USD/VND exchange rate. On the LME (London Metal Exchange), aluminum can trade up or down by several percent in each session, leading to an immediate impact on domestic aluminum prices.

Not only that, international shipping costs, passports, import taxes, and domestic processing fees also affect the price. Therefore, when the construction materials or manufacturing market heats up, aluminum prices will rise quickly. Conversely, when there is an oversupply or during the quiet end-of-year market, prices will drop.

How to know the correct "today's" price and optimize costs?

To have a price list that closely matches the market, you should combine monitoring:

• Specialized material websites like Nhôm Phương Nam, Nhôm Quảng Cáo Việt, Aluminium.com, The Pong...
  
• Price lists on the LME or international commodity tracking sites like Investing, TradingEconomics...
  
• Directly contacting reputable aluminum distributors like Kenta Vietnam to get quotes based on the type of aluminum and detailed specifications.
  

Combining multiple sources of information helps you compare prices effectively, avoiding discrepancies compared to the general fluctuations. If you are purchasing in large quantities, do not hesitate to negotiate for a better price or to receive discounts based on your order.

Tips for buying aluminum sheets at reasonable prices

If you are planning to purchase aluminum in the month or quarter, choosing the right time when aluminum prices are low is very important. Typically, in the middle and at the end of the quarter, aluminum prices tend to stabilize due to a temporary halt in demand. This is when you can easily buy at a good price.

In addition, storing aluminum when prices are low and properly maintaining it is also a way to save. However, you need to have a sufficiently large, dry warehouse, avoiding moisture and high temperatures to prevent reducing the quality of the aluminum sheets.

Identify the aluminum grade and thickness you need. If you only need thin A1050 aluminum for advertising boards, you should not buy the more expensive A6061. Choosing the right type not only saves costs but also ensures that the welds and final products are more suitable.
