Frequently Asked Questions
72% Si FeSi FOB prices moved from an average near $855/ton in 2023 to a global range of roughly $1,080–$1,430/ton by August 2026, depending on region. The climb wasn't linear — 2023–2024 saw a steady recovery on EAF steelmaking demand, and 2025–2026 has been the sharpest stretch, with the 72% grade up more than 13% year-over-year through 2026.
As of August 2026, the Middle East trades lowest at $1,080/ton (CIF Jebel Ali), while the Americas trade highest among the four tracked regions at $1,320/ton (CIF Houston). Asia posted the fastest monthly growth at +1.8% versus July 2026. The gap comes down to logistics, energy tariffs, and destination-port freight rather than a difference in material quality.
FOB pricing moves with size fraction, grade, and daily market conditions, so we don't post a fixed number — the charts above show the recent range and direction across grades, regions, and countries. For today's firm, quotable figure, send your grade, size, and destination port on WhatsApp or by phone and our team will get back to you same day.
As of August 2026, China holds the lowest benchmark at $1,160/ton (FOB Tianjin), while Japan trades highest at $1,430/ton (CIF Tokyo) due to logistics and tight regional supply. Europe ($1,290/ton) has stayed stable with moderate growth, India and Turkey show steady demand with consistent price increases, and the US market ($1,350/ton) has risen moderately on steel-production demand.
Available sizes: 0–3mm fines, 3–10mm, 10–50mm, 10–60mm lumps, and micronized powder (<1 micron). Low Aluminum grade (Al <1.5%) and Eurasia export grades with custom granularity are also available on request.
Yes. CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight) pricing is available to all major global ports. Contact the sales team with your destination port and volume for a full CIF quotation.
Low Aluminum FeSi (Al <1.5%) is specified when steel grades are sensitive to aluminum pick-up — for example, in silicon electrical steel, certain stainless grades, and casting applications. Standard FeSi typically contains Al 1.5–2.5%; the Low-Al grade guarantees Al below 1.5% confirmed by COA.
