Panos Kotseras on 21 Mar 11Luvata's North American rolled copper products business is asking some clients to buy their own cathode. The semis fabricator aims to switch a portion of its customers to tolling deals as an alternative to 30-day payment terms, which is a move to reduce its exposure to rising copper prices. Luvata said that semis production involves a 60-75 days of cash tied up.
