Frequently asked questions
What is the steel scrap price per kilo in Iran today?
Grade 1 heavy scrap averages 60,360 Toman/kg today: about 53,424 for a small lot and 67,094 in bulk. Every other grade is in the table above.
Why is bulk scrap priced higher than a small lot?
A bulk load arrives at once and in tonnage, so buyers pay more per kilo; a small lot costs more to collect and sort.
What separates super-special, grade 1 and light scrap?
Super-special and special are clean, heavy, short pieces that go straight into the furnace; grade 1 is heavy structural and industrial steel; light scrap is thin sheet with a lower melt yield, so it is bought for less.
How often are scrap prices updated?
Three times each working day. Averages come from that day’s bids, and each price carries its date.
