The right shade, the right certificate, the right HS code.

Steel mills sell by the ton and by heat; for small quantities, we go through audited service centers and traders, and your materials travel with your other purchases in a consolidated container.

By checking them before ordering: customs classification, actual origin, producer. We neither practice nor advise any circumvention; if the duty makes the purchase unprofitable, we tell you and propose another origin or another product.

Depending on your volumes, importing steel or aluminum into the EU requires you to declare the embedded emissions of those products and bear the carbon cost. We obtain emissions data from the producer and factor it into the landed cost from the quote stage.

We specify the grade (N35 to N52), the coating, the maximum operating temperature and the direction of magnetization, then measure the flux on a sample. Some rare-earth magnets may require an export license in China: we check this before committing to a lead time.

Add to that anti-dumping duties and safeguard measures, which target many steel products and derivatives and sometimes vary from one producer to another, and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM): since 2026, steel and aluminum imported into the EU carry a carbon cost calculated on the emissions declared by the factory.
