    The Commerce Department’s International Trade Administration has started investigations into whether polypropylene corrugated boxes imported from China and Vietnam are being sold in the U.S. at unfairly low prices. This action follows petitions filed by several U.S. companies who believe that these imports are harming domestic industry. The investigation will examine both the dumping (selling below market value) allegations and the support from U.S. industry for these claims. The findings could lead to additional duties on the imported goods if it’s determined they are hurting American businesses.

    The United States International Trade Commission has started investigations to determine if U.S. industries are being harmed by polypropylene corrugated boxes from China and Vietnam, which are allegedly being sold at unfairly low prices and possibly subsidized by the Chinese government. The initial phase of these investigations will be conducted within 45 days, with findings to be sent to the Department of Commerce shortly after. Interested parties are encouraged to participate by filing certain documents on time, and the Commission will be holding a conference to discuss these issues in early April 2025. The investigations are being conducted under the Tariff Act of 1930, and submissions can only be made electronically.
