16/05/24 (Agence Europe) – On Thursday 16 May, the European Commission published two notices of initiation of anti-dumping investigations. They concern certain flat-rolled products made of iron or non-alloy steel and certain wooden floor coverings originating in China. In both cases, the Commission could impose provisional measures over the next nine months. The representative of European iron and steel producers, Eurofer, has welcomed the opening of the investigation into flat-rolled products, which it initiated. “As steel is at the core of many value chains, the impact of dumped steel products from third countries is not only a problem for our sector but is systemic for the wider EU economy and employment”, said Eurofer Director General Axel Eggert.
