Since the beginning of this century, a concrete reinforcing steel commission set up within Belmetal has recorded - monthly at its beginnings and weekly since 2004 - the price fluctuations of concrete reinforcement products and converted their findings into a reference index.
This index is often referred to as the "GRYMAFER", named after the previous name of Belmetal.
Each week, this table includes 4 specific benchmarks :
- Rebars
- Cold rolled concrete reinforcing steel wire
- Hot rolled, cold stretched concrete reinforcing steel wire
- Concrete wire mesh
In addition, this table determines the monthly references PW218 and PW224, which are two Belgian PW-values (Public Works) for concrete reinforcing steel. The table of PW-values, set up by the Commission of the market price of materials under the Federal Public Service Economy, SMEs, Middle Classes and Energy, notes the price evolution (not the market price! ) of a whole series of building materials, such as sand, gravel, steel, lumbers, cement, ...
Upon approval, the PW218 and PW224 values suggested by Belmetal are taken over by Statistics Belgium, who publish all PW values here (NL/FR).
