European Aluminium Rollers in the hot-list due to another US dumping investigation

EDITED BY : RUPANKAR MAJUMDER 2MINS READ

The US Aluminium Association's Common Alloy Aluminium Sheet Trade Enforcement Working Group filed antidumping and countervailing duty petitions against 18 countries on 9th March’20. This occurs just after 13 months the US Department of Commerce published AD and CVD orders on imports of common alloy sheet from China.

The announcement stated: "The domestic industry's antidumping petitions allege that common alloy aluminium sheet from Bahrain, Brazil, Croatia, Egypt, Germany, Greece, India, Indonesia, Italy, Oman, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, and Turkey was dumped in the United States at margins ranging from 15.90% to 151.00% of the value of the imported common alloy aluminium sheet. Domestic producers also filed countervailing duty petitions alleging that producers in Bahrain, Brazil, India, and Turkey benefit from numerous governments subsidy programs."

It is just like the China case, which was excluded from the scope of the latest petition is the aluminium can stock.

The commencing deadline for preliminary CVD determinations was adjourned from 3rd June to 7th August’20, while the preliminary AD determinations are set for 17th August.

The US common alloy imports from 18 countries in scope increased by 35% Y-o-Y in 2019 and accounted for 68% of total US common alloy imports, nearly double the 35% market share such countries held just two years ago.

In the present repercussions of the China investigation being publicized, imports from China gushed ahead of the preliminary duties being issued. However, that is not expected in this case given the amount of inventory in the market and the weak demand levels caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The totals US common alloys imports have reflected a depression by 51% through April’20 and are expected to slump further as countries in the crosshairs of the latest dumping investigation continue to retreat. Y2D common alloy imports from in-scope countries are off 62%.

It has been pretended that if the case goes through in full, this will eliminate 68% of total 2019 US common alloy imports from the market. However, 2019 was not a normal year in terms of import volumes, with a significant amount of such imports dumping up in distributor warehouses.
