I think it'll vary from one type of steel to another where the quality sources are. Here in the UK there absolutely are highly specialised grades of steel that we buy in from the US, and I suspect we could buy many more grades from the US if we wanted to. (Typically we can get most stuff from a European mill cheaper and quicker, but that's just a cost and logistic advantage, not a quality issue.)

It is hard for me to imagine Europe without the single market and its advantages, I recently ordered something from Japan and it has been held up in customs for weeks now.
- radiowave 7y agoTrue, although I think that the difficulty in bringing something in from Japan isn't strictly to do with being in or being out, but rather being in a total clusterfuck of a situation where no one knows what's going to happen next, what the rules will be. We're going to be living with the clusterfuck for a long time, one way or another.
