kacy, I'd like more detail if you have it on "fake colorbond". I've been around a very long time in the steel market and I can tell you there were colorbond type products long before the Chinese crxx you are on about. As far as steel is concerned the Chinese were in fact a non entity 50 years ago apart from the very basics like HRC, reobars etc. It was the Japanese in fact who developed higher grade steels 50 years ago with spectacular success, and I mean things like electrical steel, stabilized CRC for very deep drawing, enamelling quality CRC, and as I recall "painted GI" which we know as Colorbond. Many of these were far superior to anything BHP group manufactured at the time - due mainly to the fact they could not be expected to make "everything" in a small steel mill in a small market like ours, and they hid behind high tariff walls anyway. Good riddance to them and we have a far greater business in BlueScope today.
