Federation of Egyptian Industries: mills need secured scrap imports; ~2.8 Mt of new billet licences to run entirely on scrap
اتحاد الصناعات: المصانع بحاجة لتأمين واردات الخردة و2.8 مليون طن رخص بليت جديدة تعتمد كليا على الخردة
At the House committee meeting, El-Marakby said domestic scrap cannot meet mill needs. IDA licensing of about 2.8 Mt/yr of fully scrap-based billet capacity will add to import demand. Non-EU exporters have an opening if the EU restriction goes ahead.
