Currently, it is quite difficult to find plates of sizes over 40 mm. The main reason for this is that traders, in expectation that prices will rise, are not offering plates to the market, causing tightness in supplies. For sizes over 40 mm, the prices are as indicated above; however, due to the tight supply situation, firms which are urgently in need of plates are purchasing this material at $830/mt + VAT.
