Hexamine (Hexamethylenetetramine) from Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia Injures U.S. Industry, Says USITC

The United States International Trade Commission (Commission or USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of hexamine from Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value by Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia and subsidized by the government of India.

Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioner Jason E. Kearns made affirmative determinations of present material injury. Commissioner David S. Johanson made affirmative threat of material injury determinations. 

Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioner Jason E. Kearns made negative critical circumstances findings with regard to imports of this product from India and Germany. Because Commissioner David S. Johanson made affirmative threat of material injury determinations, he did not reach critical circumstances findings for imports of this product from India or Germany. 

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, Commerce will issue antidumping duty orders on imports of this product from Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia and a countervailing duty order on imports of this product from India.

The Commission’s public report on Hexamine (Hexamethylenetetramine) from Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-738 and 731-TA-1713-1715 (Final), USITC Publication 5693, December 2025) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.

The report will be available by January 21, 2026; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website.

Status of proceedings, links to relevant documents, and more information about the investigations can be found at the Commission’s Investigations Database System (IDS).
