INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-757 and 731-TA-1737 (Final)]


Polypropylene Corrugated Boxes From China; Determinations

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission 
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the 
Act''), that an industry in the United States is materially injured by 
reason of imports of polypropylene corrugated boxes (``PC Boxes'') from 
China, provided for in subheading 3923.10.90 of the Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States, that have been found by the U.S. 
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') to be sold in the United States 
at less than fair value (``LTFV''), and subsidized by the government of 
China.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The record is defined in Sec.  207.2(f) of the Commission's 
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
    \2\ 91 FR 2734 and 2739. (January 22, 2026).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective March 18, 
2025, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by CoolSeal USA Inc., Perrysburg, Ohio; Inteplast Group 
Corporation, Livingston, New Jersey; SeaCa Plastic Packaging, Kent, 
Washington; and Technology Container Corp., DeSoto, Texas. The final 
phase of the investigations was scheduled by the Commission following 
notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of 
PC Boxes from China were subsidized within the meaning of section 
703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and sold at LTFV within the 
meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the 
scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's investigations and of 
a public hearing to be held in connection therewith was given by 
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the

notice in the Federal Register on August 26, 2025 (90 FR 41595).\3\ The 
public hearing in connection with the investigations, scheduled for 
January 21, 2026, was cancelled.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Due to the lapse in appropriations and ensuing cessation of 
Commission operations, the Commission tolled its schedule for this 
proceeding. The schedule was revised in subsequent notices published 
in the Federal Register on November 26, 2025 (90 FR 54369) and 
December 18, 2025 (90 FR 59202).
    \4\ 91 FR 2800 (January 22, 2026).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.  
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 
1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these 
investigations on March 9, 2026. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5709 (March 2026), entitled 
Polypropylene Corrugated Boxes from China: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-
757 and 731-TA-1737 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: March 9, 2026.

Secretary to the Commission.
