Turkey’s ship scrap procurement prices have moved up by $5-10/mt, with the general range settled at $320-340/mt. The upward revision has been announced by the Izmir-based producer that is largely working with the local scrap supply instead of imports. For the short term, ship scrap prices are expected to remain stable on the upper end, there can be slight increases announced by the mills that represent the lower end to maintain ship scrap flow to their yards.
In Turkey’s Izmir region, the ship scrap purchase prices of local steelmakers are as follows:
| Producer | Price ($/mt) | Price change ($/mt) |
| Özkan Demir Çelik | 340 | +10 |
| Habaş | 320 | 0 |
| Ege Çelik | 335 | +5 |

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