Commerce rules four countries are unfairly trading tin mill products

On the afternoon of Friday, Jan. 5, the US Department of Commerce issued its final determination in the trade case involving tin mill products from a handful of countries.

The trade case was brought by Cleveland-Cliffs and the United Steelworkers (USW) union last January. Under investigation is the alleged dumping of tin mill products by Canada, China, Germany, South Korea, the Netherlands, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom, as well as the subsidization of the imports from China.
