EUROPE SECTIONS: Falling feedstock costs put pressure on sections prices

摘要

Prices for hollow steel sections in the European domestic market were unchanged this week although feedstock costs continued to decline, sources told Fastmarkets on Wednesday October 2. Fastmarkets’ weekly price assessment for steel sections (medium), domestic, delivered Northern Europe, was €585-600 ($638-654) per tonne on Wednesday, flat week on week. The market continued to struggle with low demand and scarce orders, with market participants continuing to purchase only to fill their exact requirements.
