Recently, the SGCC galvanized sheet market has shown a series of eye-catching development trends. Its wide application in multiple industries and innovative breakthroughs in technology have made it the focus of the steel and metal materials field.
Demand growth in multiple fields, broad market prospects
SGCC galvanized sheet, the full name of hot-dip galvanized cold-rolled steel for structure, plays an indispensable role in multiple industries such as construction, home appliances, and automobiles with its outstanding performance. In the field of construction, with the acceleration of urbanization, the demand for building materials continues to rise. SGCC galvanized sheet has good corrosion resistance and can effectively resist the erosion of natural factors such as rain and ultraviolet rays. It is widely used in building exterior walls, roofs, door and window frames and other parts. For example, in the construction of some large commercial complexes and residential communities, SGCC galvanized sheet is used as a roof and exterior wall material, which not only improves the beauty of the building, but also extends the service life of the building and reduces the cost of later maintenance. According to data from relevant market research institutions, in the past year, the demand for SGCC galvanized sheet in the construction industry has increased by about 15%, and it is expected that this growth trend will continue in the next few years.

In the home appliance industry, SGCC galvanized sheet is also very popular. Its smooth surface and easy processing and forming make it an ideal material for the housing of home appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners. The housing of home appliances made of SGCC galvanized sheet can not only ensure the appearance quality of the product, but also improve the corrosion resistance of the product and extend the service life of home appliances. In recent years, as consumers' requirements for the quality and appearance of home appliances continue to increase, the demand for SGCC galvanized sheet by home appliance manufacturers has also been increasing. Market data shows that the purchase volume of SGCC galvanized sheet by the home appliance industry has increased by about 20% in the past two years.

The automotive industry has also gradually become an important application field for SGCC galvanized sheet. In the process of automobile manufacturing, SGCC galvanized sheet can be used for automobile body structural parts, chassis parts, etc. Its high strength and good formability can meet the requirements of automobile lightweight and safety. At the same time, the presence of the galvanized layer can also effectively prevent automobile parts from rusting and improve the durability of the car. With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, the quality and performance requirements of automotive parts are more stringent, and SGCC galvanized sheets are expected to be more widely used in the field of new energy vehicles.
Enterprise technological breakthroughs to enhance product competitiveness
Faced with the growth of market demand, many steel companies have increased their investment in the research and development and production of SGCC galvanized sheets, and improved product quality and performance through technological innovation. Jingye Gaopin Steel Technology Co., Ltd. has achieved remarkable results in technology research and development, and successfully passed the Japanese standard cold-rolled sheet and galvanized sheet certification, of which the galvanized sheet grades cover seven categories such as SGCC. As an extremely important and authoritative certification in Japan's national standards, the Japanese standard certification has strict requirements on raw material control, production process and finished product quality. In order to successfully pass the certification, the various departments of Jingye Gaopin Steel Technology Co., Ltd. worked closely together to track the entire process from strict screening of raw materials, precise control in the production process, to detailed inspection of finished products and sample inspection. The passing of this certification not only demonstrates the company's strong strength in SGCC galvanized sheet production technology, but also lays a solid foundation for its further development of the international high-end market.

In terms of production process innovation, some companies have optimized and upgraded the traditional hot-dip galvanizing process. By improving the galvanizing equipment and adjusting the process parameters, more precise zinc layer control is achieved, making the zinc layer thickness of the SGCC galvanized sheet more uniform, and improving the corrosion resistance and appearance quality of the product. At the same time, some companies have also introduced advanced automated production equipment and information management systems to improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and enhance the competitiveness of products in the market.
Price fluctuations and market response strategies
Recently, the price of SGCC galvanized sheet has fluctuated to a certain extent. According to market data, on June 9, 2025, the price of SGCC galvanized sheet (specification 0.81000C) of Anshan Shenlong brand in Shenyang market was 3,700 yuan/ton, a decrease of 560 yuan or 15.14% compared with the same period last year. Price fluctuations are mainly affected by various factors such as changes in raw material prices, market supply and demand, and macroeconomic environment. As one of the main raw materials for the production of SGCC galvanized sheets, the fluctuation of zinc prices directly affects the production cost of SGCC galvanized sheets. When zinc prices rise, the production cost of SGCC galvanized sheets increases, and enterprises may increase product prices accordingly; conversely, when zinc prices fall, product prices may also fall accordingly.

Market supply and demand are also important factors affecting prices. During periods of high demand, such as the peak season of the construction industry or the peak production period of the home appliance and automobile industries, the demand for SGCC galvanized sheets increases significantly. If the supply cannot keep up in time, the price tends to rise. On the contrary, when market demand is weak and enterprises have excess capacity, prices may face downward pressure. Faced with price fluctuations, enterprises have adopted a variety of coping strategies. On the one hand, strengthen cooperation with raw material suppliers, stabilize raw material supply channels by signing long-term supply contracts and establishing strategic partnerships, and reduce the impact of raw material price fluctuations on production costs. On the other hand, enterprises reduce production costs and enhance product price competitiveness by optimizing production processes, improving production efficiency, and reducing energy consumption. At the same time, we will pay close attention to market dynamics and adjust production plans and product pricing strategies in a timely manner according to changes in market supply and demand to adapt to market changes.
Industry Outlook: Green Environmental Protection and High-Performance Development
Looking to the future, the SGCC galvanized sheet industry will develop in the direction of green environmental protection and high performance. With the continuous improvement of environmental awareness, the industry's demand for green production processes is becoming increasingly urgent. Enterprises will increase their investment in the research and development of environmentally friendly galvanizing processes, reduce pollutant emissions in the production process, and achieve sustainable development. For example, some companies are exploring the use of chromium-free passivation technology to replace traditional chromate passivation processes to reduce the pollution of heavy metal chromium to the environment.
In terms of product performance, it will continue to move towards high performance. R&D personnel will focus on improving the strength, toughness and corrosion resistance of SGCC galvanized sheets to meet the increasingly stringent requirements of materials in industries such as construction, automobiles, and aerospace. At the same time, by developing new coating materials and optimizing coating structures, the comprehensive performance of the product will be further improved. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the continuous upgrading of market demand, the SGCC galvanized sheet industry is expected to usher in a broader development space driven by innovation, providing more high-quality material support for the development of related industries.
