Lead-free, eco-friendly brass accelerates penetration, ushering in a comprehensive upgrade of the building plumbing market.
Driven by the tightening of global drinking-water safety regulations—such as U.S. AB 1953 and China’s “Standards for Drinking Water”—lead-free, environmentally friendly brass (with bismuth- or silicon-based substitutes for lead) is expected to achieve a penetration rate of 68% in the building plumbing sector by 2026. Data indicate that global annual demand for lead-free brass fittings stands at 894,000 metric tons, with an output value of US$24.3 billion, representing a compound annual growth rate of 7.9%. H62 and H65 eco-friendly brass rods are widely used in faucets, valves, and gas connectors, offering excellent machinability, corrosion resistance, and antibacterial properties. Domestically, Chinese companies already utilize recycled brass at a rate exceeding 50%, aligning with the “dual carbon” goals; it is projected that lead-free brass demand will surpass 1.31 million metric tons by 2031.
