STEEL INDUSTRY: The effect of the toxic combination of IMPORT DUTIES and AMSA's INABILITY TO SUPPLY THE STEEL DOWNSTREAM

The effect of the

toxic combination of

IMPORT DUTIES

and

AMSA’s INABILITY TO SUPPLY

THE STEEL DOWNSTREAM

Below are business responses

• quotations submitted for specific materials now need to be changed as costs have gone up. Some projects have had to be stopped due to the shortage of steel.

• the steel shortages and import duties have caused numerous delays on projects and a decrease in profits as a result of us having to supply clients with more expensive alternative options.

• our business has been affected very badly. Prices have increased dramatically. All materials are in short supply.

• our business is experiencing continuous shortages on plate & section stock – coupled with ridiculous & unwarranted price increases.

• we have had to cancel work because we do not have steel. We are also losing out on income.

• our business has been influenced hugely. There is no steel to manufacture our products.
