Eurofer (European Confederation of Iron and Steel Industries) lodges an antidumping complaint to European Commission on 27th against steel wire rods imported from China.
Eurofer represents in a statement that they have filed complaint to the European Commission for adopting antidumping measures against steel wire rods imported from China and Turkey. Eurofer thinks that steel wire rods imported from China and Turkey have reached a dumping rate of 50%.
This is the third antidumping complaint that Eurofer issued against Chinese steel products. Another two appeals were lodged on 29th of last month against cold-rolling stainless steel plates and hot-dip metallic-coated steel plates and sheets respectively.
Gordon. Moffat, chief of Eurofer, says in a telephone interview that they are preparing to file an antidumping complaint against Chinese steel plate in the following 10 days.
According to the antidumping rules, European Commission shall, within 45 days from the date the statement are received, determine whether there are sufficient reasons for a formal investigation. At present, the Commission has not made any decision for the complaints.
