HARDI members suspect galvanized steel prices have hit the floor

Half of the participants on this month’s Heating Air-Conditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI) Sheet Metal/Air Handling Council call expect galvanized steel base prices to remain flat at ~$48 per hundredweight ($960/short ton) for the next 30 days.

During the call, an informal survey of participants revealed that 35% of respondents expect prices to be up more than $2/cwt, while 15% responded that prices will drop by more than $2/cwt.
