Commission acts against dumped imports of valine from China
The Commission has imposed anti-dumping duties on imports into the EU of valine from the People’s Republic of China.
The definitive anti-dumping duties imposed range from 31.3% to 53.8%. The imposition of the definitive duties follows an investigation which found that imports of valine from China were entering the EU at dumped prices. This is causing injury to the EU’s valine industry, located in France.
Valine is available in three different grades – food, feed and pharmaceutical. It is used in a range of applications – notably in animal feed (primarily in the pork and poultry sectors) and in the food industry (as a dietary supplement), as well as in the pharmaceutical industry.
In an EU market for valine worth €100 million, imports from China are worth some €80 million.
