TURKEY STEEL BILLET: Increasing scrap values push up Turkish prices

Turkish billet prices have gone up this week in response to rising imported scrap costs, sources said on Thursday December 19.

Suppliers in the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region have raised their offers for billet to $425-430 per tonne cfr Turkey, from last week's $420-425 per tonne.
Customers in Turkey, however, are still seeking prices of $410-415 per tonne cfr.
