Chinese mainland announces anti-dumping measure on PC imports from Taiwan

BEIJING -- The Chinese commerce ministry on Monday announced that deposits will be levied on polycarbonate (PC) imports from the Taiwan region starting from Tuesday as an anti-dumping measure.

PC imports from Taiwan have engaged in dumping activities, causing concrete damages to the mainland's PC industry, the commerce ministry said in a statement, citing a preliminary investigation.

Last year, the commerce ministry announced the launch of an anti-dumping investigation into PC imports from Taiwan.

PC can be used in many fields such as electronic appliances, automobiles, optics, packaging and medical devices.
