SteelOrbis has learned that in the Italian domestic market drawing quality
wire rod offers are standing at €520-525/mt ($655-661/mt) for deliveries to customer, exclusive of VAT, while mesh quality
wire rod offers are at €510-515/mt ($643-649/mt), though no transaction has been reported so far.
On the export side, Italian suppliers are offering mesh quality
wire rod to export markets at €510/mt FOB. However,
wire rod demand in Italian suppliers' export markets is almost nonexistent, since Algerian buyers currently have very large inventories.
