In our quotes the costs of the semi-finished (rods, special profiles or tubes) materials that we machine by means of chip removal technology are indexed with reference values for the relevant primary materials. These values are sourced from the most reliable sector websites.
You can consult our database by viewing a chart illustrating price histories: simply choose the index in the menu and wait for the chart to load, changing the timeframe if necessary. Data are usually updated by 12.00 on working days.
Below you will find the indexes, the source and the link for checking daily values.
