SteelOrbis has learned from market sources that Turkish merchant bar export offers have not shown any changes over the past week, though demand for ex-Turkey merchant bar offers has indicated improvement. Some merchant bar sales have been concluded to the Middle East and North Africa, while higher import billet prices have also helped Turkish merchant bar offers to gain acceptance in global markets.
Export offers from Turkish merchant bar producers are at the following levels:
| Product | Price ($/mt) FOB |
| Angle | 620-640 |
| IPN-UPN | 620-640 |
| Flat bar | 635-650 |
| IPE 80-100-120 mm | 645-670 |
| IPE A 80-100-120 mm | 645-670 |
| IPE AA 80-100-120 mm | 645-670 |
