Tuesday, 04 August 2020 16:16:14 (GMT+3)   |   Istanbul

Some Turkish mills including one of the key producers have increased their domestic scrap purchase prices by TRY 30-110/mt ($12/mt), while other producers’ dollar-based prices have decreased by $3-5/mt due to exchange rate fluctuations. The benchmark DKP prices are now at TRY 1,795-2,095/mt ($258-301/mt), up by TRY 90/mt on the lower end and up around $12/mt on US dollar basis.
