Organising international sourcing, export and heavy cargo shipment operations across steel and non-ferrous metal product groups.
Metals and steel form an area where specification is every bit as binding as price. Grade, production standard, chemical and mechanical values, dimensional tolerance and surface condition can turn one item into an entirely different product. The area also responds quickly to raw material prices and freight conditions, so offer validity periods and delivery schedules are a natural part of the trade.
A product-independent approach to global trade: Yurt Bereket Global is not the producer or seller of any particular metal or steel product. Whatever the product, we bring the right manufacturer, the right international buyer, a suitable financial model, a secure payment structure and logistics into one coordinated trade operation. Products may change, markets may change, opportunities may change; our business is international trade.
Typical product groups in this area
- Flat steel: hot and cold rolled sheet, galvanised and pre-painted sheet, coil
- Long steel: rebar, wire rod, sections, angles, flat bar
- Steel pipe: welded and seamless pipe, hollow sections
- Stainless steel products and alloy steels
- Non-ferrous metals: aluminium, copper, zinc, lead and their alloys
- Aluminium profiles, plate and foil
- Wire, rope, welded mesh and drawn products
- Cast and forged semi-finished components
- Metal scrap and secondary metal inputs
How trade in this area usually works
The process starts by settling grade and standard. The production standard to be applied, the grade, thickness and width tolerances, coating weight or surface treatment are all defined before a price is discussed. Two items of identical dimensions produced to different grades differ completely in both cost and application.
On quality, the mill test certificate is the standard document of this trade, carrying chemical analysis and mechanical test values. Depending on the buyer, independent survey, third-party inspection and dimensional control can be added. Additional conformity documents may be required depending on the destination market.
Weight drives the transport structure. Coils, sections and pipes commonly move as full container loads, but length and weight often make breakbulk shipment the practical option. Load securing, lashing, edge protection and anti-corrosion packaging are part of delivered quality here, and container protection is planned for moisture-sensitive items.
On payment, the large value of a single lot means letters of credit are widely used, while documentary collection and part-advance structures appear in established relationships. The choice always rests with the parties and their banks.
What we coordinate in this area
- Turning grade, standard and tolerance requirements into a sourceable specification
- Identifying verifiable producers and suppliers in the product group
- Handling mill test certificate and test report processes
- Coordinating independent survey and pre-shipment inspection
- Building comparable offers and realistic delivery schedules
- Structuring container or breakbulk transport plans
- Planning packaging, lashing and corrosion protection
- Embedding the payment structure into the operation in step with the banks
- Coordinating document flow and customs processes
