The Canadian International Trade Tribunal, pursuant to the provisions of section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), has conducted an inquiry to determine whether the dumping and subsidizing of thermoformed molded fibre plates and platters regardless of diameter or length, and bowls with diameters or widths of eight centimetres or greater and lips up to eight centimetres, regardless of fibre source, thickness, additives, colour, design, coating, or surface or other finishing, originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China (China), have caused injury or retardation or are threatening to cause injury, as these words are defined in SIMA, and to determine such other matters as the Tribunal is required to determine under that section.
On May 28, 2026, the President of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), pursuant to paragraph 41(1)(a) of SIMA, terminated its subsidy investigation in respect of the aforementioned goods exported to Canada from China by Shaoneng Group Luzhou Eco (XinFeng) Technology Co., Ltd. as the amount of subsidy on those goods was insignificant. On the same day, the President of the CBSA, pursuant to paragraph 41(1)(b) of SIMA, made a final determination of dumping in respect of the aforementioned goods and a final determination of subsidizing in respect of the aforementioned goods for which the subsidy investigation was not terminated.
Further to its inquiry, the Tribunal finds, pursuant to subsection 43(1) of SIMA, that the dumping of the aforementioned goods, and the subsidizing of the aforementioned goods (excluding those goods exported by Shaoneng Group Luzhou Eco [XinFeng] Technology Co., Ltd.), have caused injury to the domestic industry.
The Tribunal further finds that the circumstances referred to in paragraphs 42(1)(b) and (c) of SIMA relating to massive importation are not present.
