NLMK USA Sales Volume Up 5.1% in Q3
Written by Sandy Williams
NLMK USA steel sales totaled 451,000 metric tons (497,141 net tons) for third quarter of 2013, an increase of 5.1 percent from second quarter and 8.7 percent from third quarter 2012.
The increase was due mostly to greater US sales for hot rolled coil (HRC) and galvanized steel—275,000 tonnes (303,135 net tons) and 65,000 tonnes (71,650 net tons), respectively. Cold rolled sales totaled 111,000 tonnes (122,356 net tons), almost the same as second quarter at 110,000 tonnes.
