Steel Market Update saw a letter from Majestic Steel to their customers publically announcing a price increase. Majestic, which is well known as a supplier of coated products to the HVAC and construction industries, told their customers that the price increase is due to cold rolled base prices reaching as high as $39.50/cwt and $40.50/cwt on hot-dipped galvanized. The exact amounts of the increases were not published as they varied depending on industry, item, location and previously quoted pricing levels.
