    The Department of Commerce has completed its review of a countervailing duty order on aluminum extrusions from China for 2018. This review found that Chinese producers and exporters of these aluminum products received subsidies, with the final subsidy rates listed in the official review results. Some companies had their participation in the review rescinded, and the Department plans to enforce cash deposits and duties accordingly. The merchandise included in this review involves a wide variety of aluminum extrusions, with some exceptions for specific alloy compositions and finished products.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Commerce found that companies in China made aluminum pieces with help from the government, which is like getting extra money to make things cheaper. Some companies didn't join the whole review process, so they aren't listed in the final results.
