Recently, the European Commission announced that it would impose a provisional anti-dumping duty of up to 48% on aluminum extruding products from China, which is a typical extreme act of trade protection and violates the rules of free competition in the market. It will not only hurt the interests of Chinese exporters, but also the interests of downstream users and related industries in Europe.

It is understood that the provisional anti-dumping duty is expected to be levied on October 15, when the importer must pay anti-dumping and countervailing guarantee to continue the import. Art Sign as a manufacturer of solar aluminum structure will certainly be affected. Last week, our Dutch customers said that they were informed that they should pay the anti-dumping and countervailing deposit from buying the aluminum solar components from China.

Our Dutch customers expressed that the anti-dumping and countervailing guarantee is so high, so the goods we are producing now will be delay shipment. Due to it is a provisional anti-dumping period now. During this particular period, they want to see our solar steel brackets, maybe there will be used in their other solar projects.

The European Aluminium Association said exports of rolled aluminium products from China to the EU, the type covered by the survey, rose from 171,000 tonnes in 2016 to 330,000 tonnes in 2019. In 2019, the market share of imports from China reached more than 12%, double that of four years ago. Art Sign company exports many solar brackets and solar components to Europe also increased 20% in exporting solar aluminum products from 2016 to 2019. Especially solar structure, with the increasing demand of solar energy, there are many solar projects that need solar brackets.

For the EU anti-dumping matter, Chinese firms think this is only temporary. Ensuring the survival of the European aluminium value chain is essential for low-carbon measures, including renewable energy, batteries, power systems, resource-efficient packaging, energy-efficient buildings and cleaner production mechanisms. The anti-dumping case will be stopped when the European aluminium industry restore sustainable development.

For Art Sign company, we are keeping explore other countries markets to export our solar aluminum brackets. Also, we can’t give up the Europe markets, we will sale our steel solar brackets to our Europe customers. As now there are new steel material that called HOT-DIP ZINC-ALUMINUM-MAGNESIUM ALLOY-COATED STEEL SHEET. What is this material?
