🛡️ Anti-Circumvention Rulings Are Closing Doors Fast – CNB Group‘s Stock Is Already on the Right Side of the Line

Anti-circumvention is no longer a side issue in steel trade — it is now the primary enforcement tool. And the rulings are landing fast.

 Expanded its anti-dumping duties on hot-dip galvanized cold-rolled steel coils to ZAM-coated cold-rolled steel coils — explicitly closing the loophole where exporters shifted coating composition to avoid duties. Most Chinese producers face 37.54% at CIF, while Tianjin Rolling-one faces only 4.75%.

 The “Melt and Pour” rule became fully mandatory, requiring importers to declare the first melting and casting country and furnace number. By October 8, 35.9% of Q4 duty-free quota was already consumed, with 45 order numbers exhausted.

 Maintained anti-dumping duties on Chinese cut-to-length carbon steel plate, with a 128.59% dumping margin if removed.

 Recommended 22.34%–33.67% duties on Chinese galvanized cold-rolled steel for five years.

What this means for buyers: The products that once offered a “tariff-free alternative” — ZAM, slightly modified coatings, third-country transshipment — are being pulled into the net one by one. The only reliable supply is documented, traceable, and stock-ready.

✅ 70,000+ tons of daily stock — HRC, CR, GI, GL, PPGI, ZAM, and AS — ready to dispatch before the next ruling expands scope again

✅ Full anti-circumvention documentation — Melt-and-pour certificates, Mill Test Certificates (MTC), and furnace number verification for every order

✅ CBAM-ready carbon footprint data — Product-level CO₂ emission reports to meet EU compliance requirements

✅ Diversified sourcing — Core agent for multiple state-owned mills, not reliant on any single production source or coating composition
