Taiwan’s China Steel Corp (CSC) has decided to maintain domestic prices for most steel products in March, citing the need to hedge against risks following the new US tariffs.
As a result, prices for commercial-grade HR plates, coils, CR, EG, galvanized, and electrical steel will remain unchanged. However, CSC will raise prices for HR in rerolling grades by TWD 300 (USD 9) per ton.
CSC explained that global manufacturing demand remains in a slow recovery phase, and the uncertainty surrounding the US government’s trade policies under President Trump is still a concern. The company continues to monitor these developments, supporting downstream steel-using industries by offering flexible solutions and creating business opportunities. Given the varying impacts of the new US tariff policy on different industries, CSC is opening March products at a flat-high price and rolling out additional support measures to help users secure orders.
CSC is the largest integrated steel producer in Taiwan with an annual crude steel output of about ten mln tons.
