The Benelux scrap market has maintained its firmness despite facing pressure from weak export demand. Prices have remained stable, with slight increases observed in Belgium. The spread between values in Belgium and the Netherlands has narrowed, reflecting a resilient market.
Exporters have reported minimal changes in prices due to low scrap buying activity in key markets like Turkey. Despite the challenges, the expectation of increased domestic prices and ongoing demand from Turkey for future shipments are helping to keep scrap prices steady in the Benelux region.
