From Vietnam’s Formosa Ha Tinh fire to China‘s mill maintenance wave, from South Africa’s 57.84% tariff to Indonesia‘s new probe – global steel supply chains are under unprecedented pressure. But while others struggle to deliver, CNB Group keeps your steel moving.
What’s happening in the market right now:
– Formosa Ha Tinh Steel remains offline for 2–3 months following a September 4 fire, removing 200,000 tons/month of HRC from regional supply
– 8 new hot-rolled strip lines and 5 HRC lines entered maintenance between September 13 and October 12, cutting daily output by 30,000 tons and 45,000 tons respectively
– Escalating anti-dumping duties up to 57.84% on Chinese coated steel
– New anti-dumping probe on Chinese galvanized steel launched September 15
– “Melt and Pour” rule fully in force from October 1; CBAM expansion proposed for 2028
