AD/CVD News: Carbon Bricks, Mattresses, Pulp, Solar Cells, Steel Pipe

The International Trade Administration and/or International Trade Commission have recently announced the following actions in antidumping and/or countervailing duty cases. For more information on AD/CVD issues, including how to mitigate liability, please contact STR.

Carbon bricks – initiation of country-wide inquiry to determine whether imports of certain refractory bricks containing alumina in an amount greater than zero but less than five percent by weight from China are circumventing the AD and CVD orders on magnesia carbon bricks from China

Mattresses – continuation of AD orders on mattresses from Cambodia, China, Malaysia, Serbia, Thailand, Türkiye, and Vietnam, and CVD order on mattresses from China, effective Nov. 2

Pulp – negative final AD/CVD injury determinations on high-purity dissolving pulp from Brazil and Norway, meaning AD/CVD orders will not be issued

Solar cells – issuance of AD and CVD orders on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules, from India, Indonesia, and Laos, effective Nov. 9

Steel pipe – initiation of AD investigations of seamless carbon and alloy steel standard, line, and pressure pipe from Georgia and India, and CVD investigation with respect to India, with Nov. 24 deadline for comments on the scope of this investigation
