Stainless Steel Imports Gather Pace

The re-vitalization of stainless steel consumption in Russia as well as a general growth of external market prices have prompted importers to increase supply of stainless steel.

\r\n

According to an expert appraisal by Spetsstal Association, imports of stainless steel products to Russia in March, if compared to February, rose 29.6% to 15195 tons.

\r\n

Imports of flats rise by 28.5%, longs are up by 87% and welded tubes gain 31.6%.
