U. S. Steel Welcomes ITC Action to Protect American Steel Industry

Audio By Carbonatix

PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 25, 2025--

U. S. Steel applauds the recent decision by the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). Today, the ITC voted 3-0 to impose antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) orders on U.S. imports of corrosion-resistant steel products (CORE) from ten countries: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam. The ITC found unfairly-traded CORE imports from these nations, amounting to $2.85 billion and 2.2 million metric tons of imports in 2023, materially injured the domestic CORE industry and its workforce. This crucial decision follows the U.S. Department of Commerce's recent determinations that CORE imports from all ten countries were unfairly dumped and subsidized. Consequently, importers are required to make cash deposits ranging from 6 to 421% of the import price on covered CORE.

A year ago, U. S. Steel, along with Nucor, Steel Dynamics, Wheeling-Nippon Steel, and the United Steelworkers (USW), spearheaded the largest steel trade case in nearly a decade. CORE products are integral to U. S. Steel's portfolio, featuring cutting-edge offerings such as COASTALUME™ steel, GALVALUME® coated steel, XG3™ generation 3 steel, and verdeX® sustainable steel, which play a vital role in sectors like automotive, appliance, construction, HVAC, solar, and others. These orders not only provide American industries critical relief from unfairly traded imports, but also provide crucial backing to U. S. Steel's expansion initiatives, especially in the ramp up of its new CORE lines at Big River Steel Works, reinforcing American-mined, melted and made steel.

David Burritt, President and CEO of U. S. Steel, commended the ITC's decision and emphasized the significance of robust U.S. trade enforcement: "Today's vote underscores the U.S. government's resolute stance in protecting American manufacturers and their workforce against the detrimental effects of unfair trade practices. We are appreciative of the U.S. International Trade Commission and U.S. Department of Commerce for championing the cause of our industry and workers."
