Italy is a major scrap consumer, with one of Europe's largest EAF-based steel industries. Companies like Feralpi, Riva, and Danieli rely heavily on domestic and imported scrap. Italy is also a significant importer of ferrous scrap.
Italy's steel sector is predominantly EAF-based, meaning scrap is the primary raw material. The Italian market is a large buyer of HMS and shredded scrap from across Europe and beyond. Non-ferrous scrap is also significant, given Italy's large metalworking and automotive sectors.
Italian scrap prices (Prezzi Informativi) are published by local chambers of commerce. CFR Italian port prices are a key reference for imports. Italy imports substantial quantities from Germany, France, and overseas.
