EU imposes anti-dumping duties on Chinese tyres

The European Commission has imposed ‌anti-dumping duties on the import of ​tyres for cars ​and lighter trucks and ⁠buses from China, reports Reuters.

The ​duties, which followed ​an investigation launched in November last year, vary from 4.3% ​to 45.3%.

“Imports ​of passenger car and light ‌lorry ⁠tyres from China were entering the EU at dumped ​prices. This ​is ⁠causing injury to the EU’s ​tyre industry, ​which ⁠employs over 80,000 people across 14 ⁠EU ​countries,” the ​Commission said.
