FAQ – Ferrosilicon 72% Export Prices
Q1: Why is the Ferrosilicon 72% price stable at $1,020–$1,040/ton?
A: Prices are steady because current offers reflect a balance between production costs (ore, coke, power) and existing export demand. Producers are not under strong pressure to cut prices, and buyers are still placing routine orders at this level.
Q2: Are these prices negotiable for large volume orders?
A: Yes. There is usually some room for negotiation based on volume, payment terms, and shipment period. Larger lots or combined cargoes may secure slightly better levels within or near the quoted range.
Q3: What is the typical packing for Ferrosilicon 72% exports?
A: Common packing options include 1MT jumbo bags or in bulk, depending on buyer preference and port facilities. Bagged material is often preferred for easier handling and storage.
Q4: How does Ferrosilicon 72% differ from Ferrosilicon 75% in application?
A: Ferrosilicon 72% has a slightly lower silicon content than 75%, and is often used where cost efficiency is more important than the highest Si content. Many steel mills use both grades depending on steel grade requirements and cost considerations.
Q5: What information is needed to get a firm offer?
A: Buyers should provide grade (72%), quantity, packing requirement, destination port, and preferred trade term (FOB or CIF). This allows the seller to calculate a workable, shipment-ready price.
