SHANGHAI, Jul. 5 (SMM) – Growing anti-dumping investigations and high anti-dumping duty took a heavy toll on exports by China’s leading aluminum extrusion producer.
 Aluminum extrusion exports by the leading producer fell 28.6% year-on-year to 120,534 tonnes in Q1, according to its financial report. 

Customs data showed China’s exports of aluminum extrusion plunged 37.91% year-on-year in April.
