Commission counters unfair imports of shipbuilding components from Türkiye and China

These measures will defend the EU’s two bulb flat producers, both small and medium enterprises (SMEs), from injury caused by dumped imports from these countries. As such, the measures will protect 140 jobs in Spain and Italy.

An anti-dumping investigation found that imports from Türkiye and China were seriously harming the EU industry, which would be unable to compete without measures. Therefore, duties of 23% were imposed on imports from China and 13.6% on imports from Türkiye.

Bulb flats are used in the shipbuilding industry as a fortifier of ship hulls, mainly in the construction of passenger cruise ships and military vessels.
