Providing you the latest data for Aotearoa New Zealand’s metal industry so you’re able to measure activity and performance to inform your operations.

We are now sharing these data and insights in the hopes that it might be helpful as a source of information that allows you to better identify trends and market share opportunities for your business.
Steel import levy tonnages year-to-date: July 2024
The steel import tonnages have been inconsistent, reflective of the anticipated fluctuations in the construction sector over the next 6-9 months. We noted a significant dip in June, which was the lowest in 10 years, however July looked more promising. We are hopeful that more projects will be approved and announced in the next quarter, so our members have greater certainty. HERA is committed to continually delivering against our agreed research and industry support program for the year and anticipates a deficit for the year’s operations, which will be supported by built-up reserves.
