Some Turkish steel producers based in the Izmir region have revised their domestic ship scrap purchase prices, partly following the downtrend in the import segment. Their new purchase prices are currently settled at $261-278/mt CPT, with two mills being out of the market. According to sources, Cebitas is working on a melt shop modernization, while Ozkan Demir Celik has reportedly closed its ship scrap purchases for now, having restocked on the import side.
In Turkey's Aliaga region, the ship scrap purchase prices of local steelmakers are as follows:

All the above prices are for delivery to mill by truck.
