Hot rolled steel coil refers to steel coils that have been pressure processed and deformed at high temperatures. It is one of the most common and widely used steel products in the industrial field.

Financial News Agency, November 19th, according to the China Trade Remedy Information Network, on November 15th, the Australian Anti-dumping Commission issued Announcement No. 2024/093, stating that in response to an application submitted by the Australian domestic enterprise BlueScope Steel Limited, it would impose restrictions on imports from China.

Hot Rolled Coil Steel initiated anti-dumping and countervailing investigations. The products under investigation are hot-rolled coil steel (including sheet) of all thicknesses, with or without relief patterns (often referred to as textured steel plates), whether or not alloyed, unclad, plated or coated (except oil coating). Steel plate products and flat steel bars are not within the scope of the investigation. The dumping investigation period in this case is from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2024, and the damage investigation period is from October 1, 2020.

The Australian Anti-Dumping Commission is expected to complete the basic fact report on the investigation of this case no later than March 5, 2025, and submit a final report to the Australian Minister of Industry and Science no later than April 22, 2025.
