What steel standards and grades do you offer for the Israeli market?

We supply steel products in EN European standards (most commonly requested in Israel), as well as ASTM, JIS, and GB standards. Popular grades include S235JR, S355JR for carbon steel and 304 / 316L for stainless steel. All shipments come with full Mill Test Certificates (MTC) per EN 10204 3.1 standard. Third-party inspection by SGS or Bureau Veritas is available upon request.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for shipping to Israel?

Our standard MOQ is 1 ton for in-stock products, and we accept mixed sizes in one order. For full container loads (20ft or 40ft), we can offer better per-ton pricing. Trial orders and sample quantities are welcome for new customers. Custom fabrication orders may have a higher MOQ depending on the complexity of processing.

How long does delivery take from China to Israel?
