Looking at a graph of the price of steel<\/a>, while it is no longer at the low cost it hit in 2015, it\u2019s also not at the highest point it\u2019s been in the last ten years, though it is trending upwards and expected to continue. Looking at shorter timeframes, it\u2019s easy to see the huge variability in the market right now on the prices of raw materials as well as the upward trend.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re considering roll formed products, our sales and purchasing teams will work with you to try and help you get the best prices possible on steel. This may mean that you want to look at how much product you need over a longer period of time and make a larger purchase of steel to lock in a lower price. You can then have that steel stored in a warehouse or delivered over time, just as we can take a larger order and deliver it to your facility in smaller batches, letting you leverage the benefits of just in time manufacturing.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re interested in learning more about roll forming<\/a> and how the Roller Die + Forming team is focused on helping you cut costs by paying attention to metal pricing and leveraging our Standard Tool Library, contact us today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
