Galvanized buyers see strong demand, but uncertainty lingers

Rising prices and tariff uncertainty continue to dominate the galvanized market, according to steel buyers on Wednesday’s HARDI Sheet Metal/Air Handling Council call.

Each month, SMU joins the council’s meeting to discuss the galvanized sheet market. Participants — members of Heating, Air-Conditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI) — are wholesalers, service centers, distributors, and manufacturers who buy or sell galvanized steel.
