Would a box made of this enhance an external magnetic field?

Why would it enhance the field? As it says, it would block the magnetic field. Almost the opposite of enhancing it. 

Bu the way, that website is not in general a reliable source of information. Although, in this case they have just copied a press release.

No what i meant is that if there was a hollow box made of that material and there was a magnet placed inside of the box and a magnetic field generated outside, would the box enhance the outside magnetic field in any way? Because I heard that magnetic shields tend to do that.

And what stops the ferromagnetic layer of the antimagnet producing a magnetic field?
