NLMK USA made mostly downward revisions to their galvanized coating extras this week. The new extras go into effect in August 2022.
Earlier this week, Steel Dynamics also revised their galvanized coating extras, with their new prices going into effect August 1, 2022. SMU provides a comparison of mill galvanized coating extras here in the Resources section of our website, comparing G30, G60 and G90 coating weights between 10 US mills. Detailed extras by individual mill are also available via the right-side navigation menu on that page.
SMU has analyzed the old and new extras below. Select NLMK USA extras decreased between 0-15%, with an average decrease of 7%. NLMK extras were previously revised in March 2022.
