Mexican curbs 'singe' steel firms

Anti-dumping probe will hurt producers in a number of countries, say industry sources

The China Iron and Steel Industry Association on Tuesday opposed Mexico's decision to launch an anti-dumping investigation into imports of corrosion-resistant steel produced in the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.

The response came after Mexico's Ministry of the Economy announced last week that it will begin an anti-dumping investigation into imports of coated flat steel products from the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.
