PRICING NOTICE: Specification amendment of eastern China CRC price

Following a period of consultation, Fastmarkets has amended the specification of its assessment for steel cold-rolled coil domestic, delivered Eastern China domestic to include DC01 products.

MB-STE-0153 Steel cold-rolled coil domestic, delivered Eastern China domestic, yuan/tonne
Quality: SPCC/DC01, width 1,000-1,250mm, thickness 1-1.2mm
Quantity: 10-200 tonnes
Location: Ex-warehouse Shanghai
Timing: Spot
Unit: RMB/tonne
Payment terms: Prompt payment upon delivery
Publication: Weekly. Friday, 5-6pm Shanghai time

The consultation period for this amendment was made between August 21 and September 20.

The change came into effect on Monday September 21.
