AGWA takes action to protect the Australian Window and Door industry The Australian Glass & Window Association has initiated an Anti-Dumping case jointly with Ventora Group Pty Limited. This decisive step matters for every Australian fabricator, installer, and supplier. What’s Happening The Australian Anti-Dumping Commission has begun investigating claims of dumping on imports of fully and partially fabricated aluminium windows and doors from China. Over the coming months, the Australian Anti-Dumping Commission will be reviewing our application and engaging with stakeholders both here and overseas to understand the scope, spread, impact and evidence to support the allegations of dumping. What It Means for the Industry These measures help to ensure fair competition and Industry Integrity. By initiating the Anti-Dumping action, we are seeking to restore a level playing field by addressing what we allege is the increasing penetration of dumped product into the Australian market. This action helps to protect over 9,000 direct local jobs and the $2.72 billion aluminium window sector. This action complements and reinforces the association's accreditation and compliance efforts, safeguarding quality and integrity across the supply chain while ensuring manufacturers and suppliers operate under fair and transparent conditions. “AGWA stands for a fair and level playing field. We believe trade should be transparent, competitive, and compliant. This action is a necessary step to safeguard local capability, uphold standards, and secure the future of an industry that sustains thousands of Australian jobs and businesses nationwide.” — Clinton Skeoch, Chief Executive Officer, AGWA Want to know more?
