The U.S. Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission decided to continue imposing antidumping and countervailing duties on quartz surface products from China. These actions are intended to prevent dumping and unfair subsidies that could harm U.S. businesses. The rules apply to quartz surface products such as countertops and tiles, while excluding materials like granite and marble. Customs will keep charging existing duty rates on imports, with these orders effective as of January 24, 2025.
