Chinese Ministry of
Commerce on Thursday called an end to the antidumping
investigation over rubber imports from the United States, the
Republic of Korea and the Netherlands.
The ministry made the decision at the request of the Jilin
Chemical Industry Company, the company that originally asked for
the investigation but who now deem it unnecessary.
The Ministry of Commerce began its antidumping investigation
against imports of ethylene-propylene-non-conjugated diene rubber,
mainly used in the construction, wire and cable, and auto
industries, on Aug. 10, 2004.
According to China's antidumping laws, the importers of the
mentioned chemical products can retrieve their deposits when the
goods are handed to Chinese customs.
