China to Launch Anti-Dumping Investigation on EU Chemical
On Friday the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation (MOFTEC) will launch an anti-dumping investigation into EU-imported catechol, a chemical material used as an antiseptic or as a photographic developer.
In keeping with China's regulations on anti-dumping, the MOFTEC investigation is to decide whether dumping actually took place and if so to what extent.
According to MOFTEC sources, the dumping was reported by a chemical plant in Lianyungang city, Jiangsu Province in east China, on behalf of China's catechol industry.
