The aftermath of US tariffs on aluminium imports
An assessment of tariff impacts and a review of the EU aluminium industry
The tariffs imposed by the US in 2018 for several aluminium products have worked only partially as intended. Tariffs contributed to reducing imports and increasing primary aluminium production in the US, but the desired impact quickly faded out. On the other hand, tariffs did not harm the EU exports to the US for most product categories, especially during the first year after implementation when EU exports of rolled products and foil surged.
