USITC Votes to Continue Investigations on Float Glass Products from China and Malaysia

The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of float glass products from China and Malaysia that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China and Malaysia.^[1]

Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative. Commissioner and Rhonda K. Schmidtlein did not participate in the vote.

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue its investigations of imports of float glass products from China and Malaysia, with its preliminary antidumping duty determinations for China and Malaysia due on or about April 30, 2025, and its preliminary countervailing duty determinations for China and India due on or about March 6, 2025.

The Commission’s public report Float Glass Products from China and Malaysia, (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-748-749 and 731-TA-1726-1727 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5579, February 2025) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.

The report will be available by March 3, 2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at:  https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library.
