We do not just use raw stainless steel trade data for our market volumes, but carry out a very detailed analysis of the trade flows of each exporting country.
We break down global and regional (Europe, N. America, S. America, China, Other Asia, M.East/Africa/CIS, Others) stainless steel demand into 5 categories and 78 individual end use segments.
Our forecasts don't just show one line, but we forecast each of the 78 end use segments described above and consider trends and drivers of individual segments. This approach proved to provide accurate results.
Stainless Steel Prices
We developed the SMR monthly price census, comparing the price levels by region (Europe, USA, China) for various standard products (e.g. cold rolled coils or bars) in grade 304 & 316.
Raw Material Information
We track the most important raw materials required for stainless steel production. We show current and historic prices and describe trends, drivers & inhibitors.
Nickel (Nickel Pig Iron, Ferronickel)
Chrome
Stainless Steel Scrap (18/8)
Production Cost Analysis
Our extensive database about individual stainless and special steel producers allows us to calculate the production costs of virtually any producer and product form (grade, size, etc.) with high accuracy. Our cost model that has been developed together with leading special steel producers and engineering firms over the past 15 years is based on a profound understanding on production technologies and related cost parameters.
