Offering 2,500 tonnes, Kansai Tetsugen turns again to exports

摘要

The Kansai Tetsugen, the grouping of ferrous scrap dealers serving the Osaka-Kobe belt in the Kansai, plans to hold its fourth joint auction of scrap for export early next month and will again offer 2,500 tonnes.Japan's languishing economy continues to sap construction steel demand, leaving the Kansai scrap dealers with fewer orders from their mini-mill customers and a surplus of raw material feed that dulls any hopes they may have of raising scrap sales prices.
