2025 年 4 月 28 日,欧盟委员会宣布对原产于中国的移动高空作业设备(MEWP)征收反补贴关税,税率范围为 7.3% 至 14.2%,以应对中国制造商在欧盟市场上的不公平竞争行为。此举是在 2025 年 1 月对中国 MEWP 产品征收反倾销关税的基础上,进一步加强对欧盟本土产业的保护。两项关税合计,使得中国 MEWP 产品在欧盟的总税负达到 20.6% 至 66.7% 不等。
On April 28, 2025, the European Commission announced countervailing duties (CVDs) ranging from 7.3% to 14.2% on Chinese mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs), targeting unfair competition practices by Chinese manufacturers in the EU market. This follows the anti-dumping duties imposed in January 2025, with combined tariffs reaching 20.6% to 66.7%, further safeguarding EU domestic industries.
欧盟委员会的调查发现,中国制造商受益于政府提供的优惠融资、税收减免和低于市场价格的土地使用权等补贴措施,使得其产品价格比欧盟竞争对手低约 20%。这导致中国 MEWP 产品在欧盟市场的份额从 2020 年的 29% 上升至 2022 年的 41%,对欧盟本土制造商造成了显著影响。
The EU Commission's investigation found that Chinese manufacturers benefited from government-provided subsidies such as preferential financing, tax breaks, and below-market land use rights, making their products approximately 20% cheaper than EU competitors. This led to the market share of Chinese MEWP products in the EU rising from 29% in 2020 to 41% in 2022, significantly impacting EU domestic manufacturers.
此次反补贴关税的征收对象包括湖南中联重科智能高空作业机械有限公司(Zoomlion Intelligent Access Machinery)、浙江鼎力机械股份有限公司(Zhejiang Dingli Machinery Co.)和湖南星邦智能装备股份有限公司(Hunan Sinoboom Intelligent Equipment Co.)等中国主要 MEWP 制造商。其中,Zoomlion 的反补贴税率为 11.6%,反倾销税率为 30.1%;Dingli 的反补贴税率为 14.2%,反倾销税率为 6.4%;Sinoboom 的反补贴税率为 7.3%,反倾销税率为 42%。
The countervailing duties apply to major Chinese MEWP manufacturers including Zoomlion Intelligent Access Machinery, Zhejiang Dingli Machinery Co., and Hunan Sinoboom Intelligent Equipment Co. Specifically, Zoomlion faces a 11.6% CVD and 30.1% anti-dumping duty; Dingli a 14.2% CVD and 6.4% anti-dumping duty; and Sinoboom a 7.3% CVD and 42% anti-dumping duty.
欧盟本土制造商对此表示欢迎。法国 Haulotte 集团首席执行官 Alexandre Saubot 指出,尽管公司在中国设有工厂,但其产品未出口至欧盟,因此不受此次关税影响。他表示:“我们很高兴看到欧盟采取了这一决定,这表明他们听取了我们的意见。重要的是,所有制造商,无论来自何处,都应有平等和公平的市场准入。
EU domestic manufacturers welcomed the move. Alexandre Saubot, CEO of France's Haulotte Group, noted that while the company has factories in China, its products are not exported to the EU, so it is unaffected by the duties. "We are pleased to see the EU take this decision, which shows they have listened to us. It's important that all manufacturers, regardless of origin, have equal and fair market access," he said.
面对欧盟的关税措施,一些中国制造商开始考虑在欧洲本地设厂。Zoomlion 宣布将在匈牙利投资 1 亿欧元建设 MEWP 生产基地,以满足欧盟市场需求。Zoomlion 高空作业设备总经理任慧丽表示:“关税已经存在,我们无法改变这一点。我们将坚持本地化生产的计划,成为一家全球本地化公司,而不仅仅是一家贸易公司。
In response to the EU tariffs, some Chinese manufacturers are considering local production in Europe. Zoomlion announced a €100 million investment in a MEWP production base in Hungary to meet EU market demand. Ren Huili, General Manager of Zoomlion's aerial work equipment, said, "The tariffs are here, and we can't change that. We will adhere to our plan for local production and become a globally localized company, not just a trading company.
欧盟委员会的调查还发现,中国的金融体系由国家主导,政府通过所有权和人事关系控制银行体系,向特定行业提供优惠贷款和其他金融支持。这些做法使得中国制造商在欧盟市场上获得了不公平的竞争优势。为了避免 “双重征税”,欧盟委员会在计算反倾销税时,已将补贴金额从倾销幅度中扣除。
The EU Commission's investigation also found that China's financial system is state-dominated, with the government controlling the banking system through ownership and personnel ties to provide preferential loans and other financial support to specific industries. These practices have given Chinese manufacturers an unfair competitive advantage in the EU market. To avoid "double taxation," the EU Commission has deducted subsidy amounts from the dumping margin when calculating anti-dumping duties.
此次关税措施的实施,旨在恢复欧盟 MEWP 市场的公平竞争环境,保护本土制造商的利益。然而,这也可能导致 MEWP 产品价格上涨,影响租赁公司和终端用户的成本。德国 System Lift 董事会成员 Christopher Friedrich 指出:“机器价格将在中期内暂时上涨。关键问题是,行业是否能够相应地调整租赁价格。
The tariff measures are implemented to restore fair competition in the EU MEWP market and protect the interests of domestic manufacturers. However, this may also lead to price increases for MEWP products, affecting the costs of leasing companies and end-users. Christopher Friedrich, a board member of Germany's System Lift, noted, "Machine prices will temporarily rise in the medium term. The key question is whether the industry can adjust rental prices accordingly.
