China's air-conditioning cut-off valve has recently encountered anti-dumping investigations by the US Department of Commerce, and the US International Trade Commission will make a preliminary ruling on industrial damage on the case on the 5th of next month. Anti-dumping experts pointed out that this is the first time that Foshan enterprises have faced anti-dumping cases for complete machine parts, and related technical issues need to be resolved.
The products involved are mainly split machines
It is understood that on the 9th of this month, the US Department of Commerce applied for an application from Parker-Hannifin Corporation (Cleveland, OH) to initiate an anti-dumping investigation against a Chinese-originated air-conditioning cut-off valve. The code is.95.
The US Department of Commerce stated in the announcement that the product involved: The product involved in the investigation was a shut-off valve for air conditioning, including assembled or unassembled, complete or incomplete, and parts and components; and A cut-off valve for air conditioning of specifications, construction, material, or connection type. The US Department of Commerce stated in the announcement that, from 2005 to 2007, the number of American-made air-conditioner shutoff valves imported from China had increased by 51%; in 2007, the United States imported a total of US$24 million in Chinese-made shut-off valves for air-conditioning. The dumping margins listed in the announcement ranged from 25.82% to 55.62%.
According to the person in charge of the Overseas Sales Department of Midea Group, the air-conditioning shut-off valve is mainly used for isolating the components of an air-conditioning system during installation or maintenance, so as to charge and empty the refrigerant for technicians. Cut-off valve is mainly used for split machine.
Risk can be avoided
Although Foshan is one of the major cities in the export of air conditioners in China, the impact of anti-dumping on air-conditioning manufacturing companies is not significant. Wang Li, head of the Guangdong Galanz Certification Section, said: “We have not been affected for the time being.†Wang Li said that Galanz’s current major export markets are in Europe. This year’s exports to the United States are relatively small and the US’s market share only accounts for exports. About 10%. "But even if there are not many products exported to the United States, we will also respond to the joint venture if the case is filed."
The relevant personage of America group responsible for the air conditioning Americas market sales said: "The risk of this anti-dumping can be avoided completely, because 99% of America's air-conditioner products exported to the American market are window machines, the window machine does not have the question of cut-off valve."
