Steel manufacturers across various countries significantly increase the price of取向硅钢.

取向 silicon steel, particularly the more expensive thin plate-oriented variety, is experiencing a shortage in the international market. In order to comply with the environmental management regulations of the U.S. market, European companies producing ******** transformers will be purchasing more orientation silicon steel this summer. As a result, Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal and JFE Steel, which are the main suppliers, will maintain full production capacity on their orientation silicon steel production lines for a period of time.

Meanwhile, Japanese steel companies have increased the price of取向硅钢, with an average rise of $400 to $500 per ton last year. In addition to Japanese steel companies, POSCO is in negotiations with Indian clients, and has also proposed a significant price increase. Currently, on the international market, the average price of取向硅钢 has surged by $700 per ton over the past year. While取向硅 steel prices are soaring globally, the domestic Japanese market appears relatively cheaper. However, prices in the domestic Japanese market are also expected to rise after the next fiscal year.
