SteelOrbis has been informed that Ukrainian steelmaker Ilyich's grade A plate offers to Turkey are at $1,250-1,270/mt CFR Turkey for October shipment, whereas Russian steelmaker Ashinskiy's S235 plate offers to the same country are at $1,100/mt CFR Turkey for October shipment.
Due to the current stagnancy in the Turkish plate market, various import offer prices are heard. While a booking was heard last week for shipbuilding plate, a drop has been observed in the shipbuilding plate offers. No clear price level is available, in particular for commercial grade plates for now. While latest offers from Donetsk were at $1,150/mt CFR Turkey for commercial grade plates, there is no clear price idea this week.
