Titanium shortage

Finance News - Business news from the UK and world - Telegraph

If you listen to the audio piece you'll hear that there's a shortage of Titanium oxide. Titanium oxide is used in paint as well as making the metal itself which is widely used in aerospace defence and racing.
I manufacture titanium fasteners and parts so its an interest to me that the metal titanium is going up in price. By 75% it seems in Australia.
If you're interested in buying 1 kilo bars of titanium send me an email and I can get some made. Rather than stamping the front of the bar with its authenticity, it may be better to have the face laser etched as Titanium is extremely strong. I may be able to get the surface polished, but Grade 2 titanium(almost pure) is quite a dull in colour.
