The separate probes found that dumping was occurring and causing material injury to local industries. Preliminary findings showed that the claims rang true, prompting the body to request the SA Revenue Service in March last year to impose provisional payments of 232% on the product originating in China, effective until September 2022.In its final determination concluded in mid-April, the commission found that laminated safety glass was being dumped and recommended the same level of antidumping duties.
He said while dumping was not prohibited by the World Trade Organisation, the problem arose when dumping threatened and/or caused injury. This could be measured as a loss of market share; a decrease in prices, sales volumes and/or profits; or job losses to the domestic manufacturers of the product.
