Aluminium extrusion industry calls for safeguards to revive underutilized domestic units

20 Jun 2025 Evaluate

Industry body, the Aluminium Extrusion Manufacturers Association of India (ALEMAI) has called for safeguards from the government to revive underutilized domestic units as free trade pacts with several Far East countries, which allow duty-free imports, affect the viability of nearly 500 home-grown entities. ALEMAI also advocated the adoption of quality and standards-compliant materials among its members and across the industry, especially in light of the growing challenges posed by cheap and substandard imports.

Industry body further said ‘The total installed production capacity in India is 3.5 million tonnes per annum. However, the aluminium extrusion industry can utilize only around 2 million tonnes. The remaining 1.5 million tonnes is imported. This is primarily because of the price difference and lack of enforcement of standards. By voluntarily implementing BIS certification, we are taking responsibility for raising product quality and reducing our reliance on low-cost imports.’

Welcoming recent government actions, such as the imposition of anti-dumping duties on solar imports from China, Thailand and Vietnam, ALEMAI also called for further policy support, especially on the issue of technical manpower.
