Send us an enquiryBuying steel across borders means dealing with mills, schedules, documents and shipping lines at the same time. We handle all of it as one job.
LAVA Corporation connects buyers with mills and suppliers across our network. We match your specification to a mill that can meet it, agree the price and the schedule, and then manage the order through production, loading, documentation and discharge.
A fast, clear answer is what decides most orders. Our staff reply quickly, and every reply comes with a way forward. Where language or business practice gets in the way, we work through it for you.
We work with the payment terms your bank and your board are comfortable with, and we say plainly which ones we can offer on a first order.
You hear from us on a regular schedule once the order is placed: mill progress, booking, loading and sailing. You should not have to ask where your cargo is.
Cover can be arranged to Institute Cargo Clauses (A), the widest of the standard cargo covers, with the certificate issued before departure.
Independent inspection at the mill or at the loading port can be arranged upon request, by the agency your side prefers.
These are the markets we buy from and sell into.
Everything runs through Seoul.
Marking and packing are prepared to the requirements of the receiving country. Sailing schedules, consolidation and any inspection arrangements are confirmed at the quotation stage.
