Injection Moulding Machines in Anti-dumping Net on Four Producers Complaint, Constructed Prices used for “Dumping Margin”

Users claim that the four complainants do not have the quality or price of China and Malaysia. Taiwan is of higher quality of price. Four manufacturers cannot hold the plastic product manufacturers who make a wide variety of goods ranging from buckets, lunch boxes to plastic parts.

The range of machinery starts from simple 128 gm injection machine to 6480 gms. All of these, other than the most sophisticated ones based on servo motors, vertical types and those for footwear are under investigation.

It is rare that any country puts anti-dumping duty on machinery, the Government is killing investment and employment. Further, no effort to get market prices in Malaysia, Taiwan or China has been made to establish dumping. Artificial constructed prices are used to somehow stop free flow of imports which is otherwise paying customs duty.
