China announces anti-dumping duty on certain rubber imports from India, Japan, Canada

China will impose anti-dumping duties on imports of halogenated butyl rubber from India, Japan and Canada after concluding a probe into alleged dumping, the Ministry of Commerce of China said on Friday, according to Reuters.

It added that tariffs of up to 30.1% will be imposed on shipments from Japan and Canada starting March 14.

The anti-dumping measures will remain in place for five years, the statement said.


Halogenated butyl rubber is widely used in manufacturing tyre inner liners and other industrial rubber products.
