Chinese manufacturer and distributor of BOPET plastic films Fuwei Films says it has received the final results of the BOPET film-related anti-dumping investigation conducted by the United States Department of Commerce (USDoC).
Fuwei was one of the five Chinese BOPET film manufacturers to receive the lowest anti-dumping duty (ADD) rate of 3.49%.
The average ADD rate for other Chinese companies has been assessed at 76.72% in this investigation.
USDoC began its anti-dumping investigation of BOPET film exporters, including those based in China, Brazil, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates, on October 26 2007.
USDoC investigated 41 Chinese companies. Brazil-, Thailand- and the UAE-based exporters all received the ADD rates higher than Fuwei's 3.49%.
