World Steel Prices

MEPS World average steel prices are computed from an arithmetic average of prices in Europe, North America and Asia. Prices are collected in the appropriate local currency and converted into US dollars to provide a basis for comparison.

Prices presented on this page are per tonne by default. To calculate prices for other weight measurements, use the 'Units' drop-down or apply the necessary multiplication factor.
