Egyptian re-rollers push to drop billet anti-dumping duties (meeting 11 Oct); 8 new billet production licences (2.8 Mtpa) under review
مصانع الدرفلة تطالب بإلغاء رسوم إغراق البليت و8 رخص جديدة لإنتاج البليت بطاقة 2.8 مليون طن
Egypt's 22 re-rolling mills are short of billet and are lobbying against import duties, while 8 new billet-making licences (2.8 Mt/yr) are under review. New melt shops would add demand for ferrous scrap, so exporters supplying Egypt should follow who receives the licences.
