Production Cost Analysis

Our extensive database about individual stainless and special steel producers allows us to calculate the production costs of virtually any producer and product form (grade, size, etc.) with high accuracy. Our cost model that has been developed together with leading special steel producers and engineering firms over the past 15 years is based on a profound understanding on production technologies and related cost parameters. The following list is an excerpt of cost analysis that we have already done:

  • STS Flat Products (Slab, 3mm No. 1 HRC, 1.2mm and 0.8 mm 2B CRC, 0.8mm BA CRC in 304, 316, 430 and 409) for up to 28 producers.
  • Cost Benchmarking for Stainless Steel Plate (any selected with thickness and grade) for up to 10 producers
  • Stainless Steel Long Products (Billet, Forged Bars 250 mm, Peeled Bars 50mm, CD Bars 25 mm)
  • Stainless Steel Wire Rod Production Costs (HRAP in 5.5 mm and 25.0 mm)
  • Stainless Steel Seamless Tube Production Costs (Mother tube, HF Tube, CF Tube, Instrumentation Tube)
  • Cost Analysis for High Alloyed and Engineering Steels (4330, 52.100, H13, D2)
  • Production Costs for Nickel Alloy Long Products (Alloy 718, Alloy 625, Monel K500)
