Over the past week, Turkish merchant bar producers have increased their official domestic merchant bar prices by TRY 300-700/mt ($9-20/mt) amid the ongoing currency fluctuations and the higher import prices. In the Iskenderun region, one mill is offering its equal angles at TRY 22,200/mt ($648/mt) ex-works today, October 15.
Most merchant bar sellers are offering either for deliveries in November or from stocks, depending on the size. A few re-rollers are also offering their HEA/HEB (550-700 mm, standard) at TRY 28,050/mt ($819/mt) ex-works, for delivery to the Osmaniye region.
