2024 Is Already Ahead Of Our Forecast!

February 15, 2024 | By Jeff Swan | Topics: Lead Times, Litho Pails, Plain Pails, Steel Industry News

2024 has started off much stronger than last year, with both January and February beating our initial forecast.

We have had to slightly extend our lead times to be able to keep up with the increased demand, meaning our lead times are currently at 3-4 weeks instead of their usual 2-3 weeks.
