Recently, our company's first batch of 5 kg battery‑grade soft pure nickel strip has successfully completed production, packaging, and warehousing processes and has been officially dispatched to the U.S. market via the international express carrier UPS. The product specifications are 0.2 mm in thickness and 30 mm in width, manufactured from high‑purity nickel material with a purity exceeding 99.6%. It is mainly used for cell connections and busbar welding in lithium‑ion battery packs, serving as a critical conductive connecting material in new energy battery pack assembly. This successful shipment marks a solid step forward in our company's international expansion within the new energy battery materials sector.
Precision Specifications for High‑End Battery Manufacturing Needs
The soft pure nickel strip exported in this batch, with a thickness of 0.2 mm and width of 30 mm, is a commonly used specification for spot‑welding connections in lithium battery packs. Pure nickel strip offers excellent electrical conductivity, good corrosion resistance, and outstanding spot‑welding characteristics, with a moderate melting point and strong weld joints, making it the most widely used connection material for cylindrical batteries such as 18650, 21700, and 4680 cells. The soft‑temper treatment further enhances the material's flexibility and formability, facilitating high‑precision automated welding operations in battery modules. This product can be widely applied in new energy vehicle power batteries, energy storage system battery packs, and lithium battery packs for consumer electronics.
Seizing Global Market Opportunities in New Energy
Currently, the global new energy vehicle industry is experiencing unprecedented expansion. According to statistics, the global pure nickel strip market was valued at approximately USD 96 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 134 million by 2031; another market research firm forecasts that the global pure nickel strip market will be around USD 1.15 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 1.724 billion by 2032. Battery cell connection has become the most critical and fastest‑growing application segment for pure nickel strip. As a major global hub for new energy vehicle production and consumption, the North American market continues to see rising demand for high‑quality battery connection materials. Our company's export of battery‑grade pure nickel strip to the U.S. market is a strategic move to actively respond to this global market demand.
Standardized Logistics to Ensure Safe Delivery
To ensure the safe and efficient arrival of the products at the U.S. customer's site, we selected UPS as our international transport service provider. Given the transport characteristics of nickel strip as a metal material, we strictly followed international shipping regulations for professional packaging-using sturdy outer cartons with proper fixation and protection for the coiled nickel strip to avoid deformation or surface damage caused by vibration or compression during transit. At the same time, complete product specification sheets, material test reports, and certificates of origin were included with the shipment to ensure smooth customs declaration and inspection upon entry into the United States.
Addressing Tariff Challenges and Demonstrating Supply Chain Resilience
Against the backdrop of constantly evolving Sino‑U.S. trade policies, our company closely monitors the dynamic changes in U.S. tariff policies on Chinese goods. According to the latest customs classification rules, conventional pure nickel strip with a thickness greater than 0.15 mm falls under HS code 7506.10.10.00. Although the current international trade environment presents certain uncertainties, our company, relying on a well‑established supply chain management system and flexible market response mechanisms, ensures stable and unobstructed export channels. This successful shipment fully demonstrates our execution capability and adaptability in a complex international trade environment.
Continued Commitment to Supporting Global New Energy Industry Growth
This first export of battery‑grade pure nickel strip to the United States is an important milestone in our company's globalization strategy. Looking ahead, we will continue to deepen our presence in the new energy battery materials field, continuously improve product quality and technological sophistication, and expand into major international markets, including North America, Europe, and the Asia‑Pacific region. Our company will always adhere to the business philosophy of "Quality First, Customer Supreme" and contribute China's strength to the vigorous development of the global new energy industry through superior products and services.
