The Steel Industry Company says the prices for rolled metal in April will increase.
The growth has to do with the change in the world prices, as well as the increase in metal consumption both on world and domestic markets, resulting in the shortage of steel and creating prerequisites for the price increase.
Many Russian metal companies have already announced the price increase.
In April rebars are expected to increase in price by 5-7%, beams, hot-rolled sheets, cold-rolled sheets, galvanized sheets, and pipes – by 4-6%. (Ukrainian metal)
