The European Commission decided on Wednesday 7 October to impose definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of hot-rolled stainless steel sheets and coils from Indonesia, China and Taiwan.
The EU will impose additional duties of 17.3% on imports from Indonesia, up to 19% on imports from China and up to 7.5% on imports from Taiwan.
The decision, which follows an in-depth investigation by the Commission services, is aimed at remedying the dumping damage caused to EU producers located mainly in Belgium, Italy and Finland. According to the Commission, it aims to protect 2,350 jobs.
In total, the EU has adopted 56 trade defence measures on steel.
