According to the latest graphite price monitoring data released by ChemAnalyst and Global Risk Community, the global graphite market showed a clear differentiated price trend in the second quarter of 2026. Affected by sufficient supply of low-end raw materials and intensified market competition, the prices of ordinary flake graphite and medium-purity molded graphite remained stable with small fluctuations; while restricted by technical thresholds and tight high-end supply, the prices of ultra-high-purity semiconductor graphite, aerospace isostatic graphite and high-precision mold graphite components continued to rise steadily, maintaining a high market premium.
In terms of regional price differences, the global graphite market has obvious regional price differentiation characteristics due to factors such as raw material supply, processing technology level, logistics cost and policy supervision. In June 2026, the domestic market price of ordinary graphite in China was 542 US dollars per ton, the U.S. market price reached 852 US dollars per ton, the German market price was 803 US dollars per ton, and the Brazilian market price was as high as 1946 US dollars per ton. The huge price difference is mainly caused by the backward local processing technology and high import logistics costs in Europe and America, while China, as the global graphite deep-processing center, has mature industrial supporting and cost advantages, forming a low-price and high-quality supply pattern of medium and low-end products.
In the high-end graphite product market, the regional price difference is further narrowed, and technical capability becomes the core factor determining product prices. High-end ultra-precision graphite components involving aerospace, semiconductor and high-end glass fields have ultra-high technical thresholds, and only a few Chinese professional manufacturers can achieve stable mass production. Therefore, the global market price of high-end graphite products maintains a unified high level, and the price fluctuation is mainly affected by product precision, purity and customized difficulty, with almost no regional difference.
Industry analysts point out that the differentiated price trend of the global graphite market will continue in the next 2-3 years. On the one hand, with the commissioning of new low-end graphite mines in Africa and Southeast Asia, the supply of ordinary graphite raw materials will continue to increase, and the price of medium and low-end products will remain stable or even slightly decline, with intensified homogeneous competition. On the other hand, the iteration speed of global high-end manufacturing technology is accelerating, and the market demand for ultra-purity, ultra-precision and long-life graphite components continues to grow, while the number of qualified suppliers is scarce, resulting in continuous tight supply and stable premium prices of high-end products.
In terms of price influencing factors, global green environmental protection policies and supply chain certification standards have become important factors supporting the premium of high-end graphite products. With the continuous tightening of carbon tariffs and green supply chain access standards in Europe and the United States, high-end manufacturing enterprises are more inclined to choose graphite products with green production certification, stable quality and reliable performance, and are willing to pay higher premiums for high-quality products. Homogeneous low-end products without green certification and technical advantages are facing the dilemma of price reduction and order reduction.
Huixian Jincheng Abrasive & Graphite Mold Factory has always focused on the high-end customized graphite component market, avoiding homogeneous price competition in the low-end market, and maintaining stable product premium value and profit level. The company abandons low-end ordinary graphite raw materials and low-precision processing business, and focuses on the R&D and production of high-value-added products such as aerospace ultra-precision graphite parts, semiconductor ultra-clean graphite components, N-type photovoltaic high-purity thermal field parts and optical glass nano-precision molds.
Relying on 42 years of technical precipitation and mature processing technology, Jincheng Graphite's high-end customized products have irreplaceable technical advantages in the global market. The company's products have ultra-high purity, ultra-precision size and ultra-stable performance, and have passed international green certification and carbon footprint testing, fully meeting the high-standard procurement needs of global high-end manufacturing enterprises. In the context of stable premium of global high-end graphite products, the company's product orders are sufficient, and the market profitability remains at the leading level of the industry.
In terms of market pricing, Jincheng Graphite adheres to the principle of technical value pricing, providing customers with cost-effective high-end customized solutions on the premise of ensuring product quality and performance. Compared with European and American high-end graphite manufacturers, the company has obvious cost advantages while maintaining the same product performance, which can help global customers reduce procurement costs by 20%-30% on the premise of ensuring equipment operation stability.
Looking ahead, with the continuous upgrading of global high-end manufacturing standards, the market value of high-precision and ultra-high-purity graphite components will be further highlighted. Jincheng Graphite will continue to deepen high-end product R&D, optimize processing technology, maintain product technical advantages and market premium capabilities, and continue to create high-value customized graphite solutions for global high-end industrial customers.
