Market Definition:
Copper is a versatile and widely utilized metal known for its distinctive reddish-brown color and exceptional physical and chemical properties. As one of the best natural conductors of electricity and heat, it plays a critical role in the electrical and electronics industries, where it is used extensively in power transmission lines, circuit boards, motors, and generators. Its high ductility and malleability make it easy to form into wires, sheets, and tubes, supporting its widespread use in plumbing, HVAC systems, roofing, and architectural detailing. Copper is also highly resistant to corrosion, especially from water and soil, which adds to its longevity in construction and industrial applications. Over time, copper develops a green patina mainly composed of copper carbonate which not only enhances its aesthetic appeal in architecture but also serves as a natural protective layer. In addition to its standalone applications, copper is a key ingredient in many important alloys, such as bronze (copper and tin) and brass (copper and zinc), further expanding its utility. With the Asia-Pacific shift toward sustainable energy, copper has gained even more importance in the manufacturing of electric vehicles, solar panels, and wind turbines, making it an indispensable resource for the green economy.
