EC to probe Chinese HDG in new antidumping case: sources

摘要

The European Commission is set to announce a long-mooted anti-dumping investigation into imports of hot-dip galvanized coils from China, according to multiple sources involved in the trade. A number of trader and mill sources have told S&P Global Platts the EC will declare its intentions "imminently" in a move that is causing consternation for traders who already feel they are being squeezed out of the market by a raft of anti-dumping measures. They comments echo those of trade lawyer Fabricio di Gianni, who told a meeting in Italy on Thursday that a case against HDG from China and Korea is expected, as Platts reported.
