China opens anti-dumping probe into Japan-made electrical steel
July 27, 2015 Category Foreign trade, Weekly
China said it has opened an anti-dumping investigation into imports of electrical steel from Japan, South Korea and the European Union. The Commerce Ministry (MOFCOM) said the probe is aimed at determining if the imports of grain-oriented flat-rolled electrical steel have damaged the Chinese steel industry. The steel is used in products such as motors and transformers. The start of the Chinese investigation follows the European Union’s decision in May to impose provisional anti-dumping duties on imports of the steel from China, Japan, Russia, South Korea and the United States. The European Union’s provisional decision was made following a complaint lodged in June last year by the European Steel Association. Under the decision, Chinese companies, including Baoshan Iron & Steel and Wuhan Iron & Steel, have been slapped with anti-dumping duties of 28.7%.
