According to foreign media reports, in response to applications from Indian Aluminium Industries Limited (IAIL) and SRF Altech, among other companies, India has decided to extend the deadline for imposing anti-dumping duties on aluminum foil with a thickness of 80 micrometers or less imported from China, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia until December 15, 2026. On September 29, 2025, the Directorate General of Trade Remedies under the Indian Ministry of Commerce and Industry initiated sunset reviews of aluminum foil imports from China, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia.

Recently, the mass production ceremony for the new automotive aluminum parts plant of the Norwegian Hydro Group was held in the Sino-European Advanced Manufacturing Industrial Park in Chengxiang Town, Taicang. Hydro is deeply involved in the research, development, manufacturing, and low-carbon recycling technologies of aluminum profiles, and its products are widely used by high-end automakers such as BMW, Tesla, and Audi. The project has successfully passed the PPAP production parts approval audit and has officially entered the full-scale mass production stage. It will stably supply high-end lightweight aluminum structural parts for BMW models. After reaching full production capacity, it is expected to generate an additional annual output value of 50 million yuan, adding high-quality foreign-invested capacity to the Taicang automotive parts industry chain.
