Trade Commission Initiates Anti-Dumping Investigation on Chinese Stainless Steel Plates

The Trade Commission of the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy held the 452nd Trade Commission meeting on the 26th and announced that it has decided to initiate an anti-dumping investigation on Chinese stainless steel hot-rolled plates and an investigation into patent infringement of intermediate films for head-up displays.

The anti-dumping investigation on Chinese stainless steel hot-rolled plates follows a request from the domestic manufacturer, DKC Co., Ltd., submitted on June 28, claiming damage to the domestic industry caused by dumped imports of Chinese stainless steel hot-rolled plates and requesting the Trade Commission to conduct the necessary investigation for imposing anti-dumping duties.

The investigation into unfair trade practices regarding patent infringement of intermediate films for head-up displays was requested by the Japanese company Sekisui Chemical, targeting companies that manufacture similar products domestically and export them overseas. The Trade Commission plans to make a final determination on whether unfair trade practices have occurred after conducting document and on-site investigations and hearing the opinions of the parties involved.

Meanwhile, the Trade Commission decided to terminate the investigation into unfair trade practices concerning patent infringement of hair dryer curling heads, as the applicant submitted a withdrawal of the investigation request.
