The U.S. International Trade Commission (Commission or USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of epoxy resins from South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of South Korea and Taiwan.
The Commission further found that the imports of these products from China and India that Commerce has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China and India are negligible, and voted to terminate the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning China and India.
Chair Amy Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative with respect to South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. They made findings of negligibility with respect to the antidumping duty and countervailing duty investigations involving China and India.
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations for South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand, Commerce will issue antidumping duty orders on imports of this product from South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand, and countervailing duty orders on imports of this product from South Korea and Taiwan. As a result of the Commission’s findings of negligibility, the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations regarding imports of this product from China and India will be terminated.
The Commission’s public report of Epoxy Resins from China, India, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-716-719 and 731-TA-1683-1687 (Final), USITC Publication 5619, May 2025) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
The report will be available by June 9, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.
