·American companies are importing tires into China

Morry Taylor, chief executive of Titan International Tire Co., Ltd., recently revealed that the company is cooperating with the United Steelworkers' Federation (USW) to jointly submit restrictions on off-highway tire imports to the US International Trade Commission (ITC). Petition.

According to previous news, the United States has decided to impose anti-dumping duties on engineering tires imported from China, with a tax rate of 86.78% to 99.36%.

From this analysis, the petition of Titan International and the United Steelworkers' Federation will fuel the US final anti-dumping fire on Chinese tires.

For Indian and Chinese products

In a phone call, Taylor mentioned the unresolved joint action. Later, he confirmed the matter in a telephone interview on November 10 and expected to submit relevant documents within the next 10 days.

Taylor said: "If your country has manufacturing, you must support the 'original principle.' I believe in free trade, but when it becomes a one-way street (imports much more than exports), this is completely wrong." He said that these views should be written into the petition.

The American Iron and Steel Workers Association declined to comment on Taylor’s remarks.

Taylor said the new joint operation is mainly for lawsuits against importers of OTR (engineering tires) in China and India.

He recalled that in June 2007, they initiated a petition requesting the US International Trade Commission to initiate anti-dumping and countervailing investigations on engineering tires imported from China to the United States. At the time, Bridgestone America was also a stakeholder in the lawsuit.

In June 2008, the US Department of Commerce determined that the sales price of engineering tires imported from China in the US market was lower than the normal price, and the Chinese government gave subsidies between 2.45% and 14% of these tires.

In July of that year, the US International Trade Commission formally implemented anti-dumping and countervailing policies on Chinese off-highway tires, with a final tax rate of 210.48%.

The affected Chinese tire manufacturer subsequently filed an appeal that the US International Trade Commission’s actions violated the “no traceback” principle of the US Constitution and the non-applicable provisions.

Identify the importer to "scratch the ball"

Taylor said that Titan International and the United Steelworkers Federation have now found new evidence that some Chinese tire importers are trying to “slap the ball” and export tires to the US market in disguise, such as using wheel accessories to avoid tariffs.

"They assembled the tires inside, but they changed the name of the customs," Taylor said.

He believes that some of these tires come from India and China. “Before this, India did not participate.”

Taylor said he is confident in winning the case. Not only is it because of this, but he believes that the current Steel Workers Union is considering more than the previous proposals for US manufacturing.

"When the first time and the federation submitted a 'double counter' request, most of the members were appointed by George W. Bush (the president), and most of the members are now assigned by Obama. They are very reluctant to see imported products. Damage to the interests of local businesses," Taylor said.

He also said that the request of the Titan International and the Steel Workers' Federation was also supported by other tire manufacturers, because importing tires hurts the American steel industry as well.
