US Commerce preliminarily finds Hexachase sold Malaysian paper shopping bags below normal value
The US Department of Commerce has preliminarily determined that Hexachase Packaging Sdn. Bhd. sold paper shopping bags into the US below normal value in the review period of 3 January 2024 to 30 June 2025, the finding that will set the exporter's antidumping duty rate. Commerce also found that Sin Boon Beng Printing Sdn. Bhd. made no shipments in the period and is rescinding the review for two further companies. Interested parties have been invited to comment before the final results.
