Turkish merchant bar export offers soften amid sluggish demand

Friday, 09 January 2026 14:03:18 (GMT+3)   |   Istanbul

Most Turkish merchant bar re-rollers have cut their official equal angle export prices by $10/mt to $580-600/mt FOB, for February shipment over the past two weeks. Most buyers are exerting pressure for further discounts.

Even though the new EU quota period officially began on January 1, most buyers are in wait-and-see stance due to the uncertainties regarding CBAM.

The SteelOrbis Turkish import billet daily reference price stands at $465-490/mt, versus $458-485/mt two weeks ago.

Product Price ($/mt)
Angle 580-600
IPN-UPN 590-610
Flat bar 610-630
IPE 590-610

All prices are on FOB basis and for February shipment.
