Delayed publication of Turkish domestic steel scrap price assessments

The publication of Fastmarkets’ MB-STE-0093 steel scrap, auto bundle scrap, domestic, delivered Turkey and MB-STE-0094 steel scrap, melting scrap from shipbreaking, domestic, delivered Turkey assessments were delayed due to a public holiday.

Due to the Eid -Al-Adha public holiday, which began on Thursday June 5 and will run through to Monday June 9 inclusive, these prices will be published instead on Tuesday June 10, in accordance with Fastmarkets’ policy. These prices are usually published weekly on Mondays.

This change was not initially noted on Fastmarkets’ 2025 pricing schedule. The pricing schedule has now been updated.

The affected prices are:
MB-STE-0093 Steel scrap auto bundle scrap domestic, delivered Turkey, lira/tonne

MB-STE-0094 Steel scrap melting scrap from shipbreaking domestic, delivered Turkey, $/tonne

These prices are part of Fastmarkets’ steel price package.
