Notice
Summary
The U.S. checked if some Taiwanese companies sold PET film too cheaply from July 2023 to June 2024. They found Nan Ya Plastics did, but Shinkong’s companies didn’t sell any during that time. This could change import duties and money owed, and folks can still share their thoughts before it’s final.
