Since March 10, three Izmir-based Turkish mills have increased their ship scrap procurement prices by a further margin of $10/mt, while two mills have decided to keep their prices stable. Turkish steel producers’ general ship scrap purchase prices have increased on the upper end from $495-630/mt to $495-640/mt, delivery to mill by truck. The rises observed in the ship scrap procurement segment are in line with the uptrend in Turkey’s import scrap market.
