29th International
Ferro-alloys
Conference
10-12 November 2013
Hotel Rey Juan Carlos, Barcelona
Ferro-alloys markets are more dynamic than
ever. The industry is being exposed to major
challenges not only from the steel sector but
also problems in its own back yard such as
production curtailments and plant closures.
Nickel demand remains strong in Asia but will
producers be able to deliver promised capacities?
Will the South African chrome industry reach a
compromise over the chrome ore export tax?
What impact will stainless steel industry
consolidation have on the market and what will
the future hold after an alloy surcharge? To
answer these and other pressing questions for the
industry in 2014 the conference will provide
dedicated sessions for each ferro-alloy from the
perspective of the industry’s heavyweights.
We are pleased to announce that the 29th
International Ferro-alloys Conference will be in
Barcelona, at the express wishes of our delegates.
Again 1,000 plus delegates will assemble at this
most important industry gathering to do a year’s
worth of business in three days with the world’s
customers and suppliers. This time in the warmth
of the Mediterranean.
