INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-748-749 and 731-TA-1726-1727 (Final)]


Float Glass Products From China and Malaysia; 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 float glass products from China, provided for in 
subheadings 7005.10.80, 7005.21.10, 7005.21.20, 7005.29.18, 7005.29.25, 
7007.29.00, 7008.00.00, 7009.91.50, and 7009.92.50 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 imports of the subject 
merchandise from China and Malaysia that have been found to be 
subsidized by the governments of China and Malaysia.<SUP>2 3</SUP> The 
Commission further determines that imports of float glass products from 
Malaysia found by Commerce to be sold in the United States at LTFV are 
negligible and terminates the antidumping duty investigation concerning 
Malaysia.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 5708, 91 FR 5713, 91 FR 5720, and 91 FR 5723 (February 
9, 2026).
    \3\ Commissioner David S. Johanson dissenting.
    \4\ The Commission initially voted in these investigations on 
March 5, 2026. The Commission found that imports of float glass 
products from Malaysia determined by Commerce to be sold at LTFV 
were not negligible. Chair Amy A. Karpel, Commissioner Jason E. 
Kearns, and Commissioner David S. Johanson voted to reconsider their 
votes in these investigations on March 20, 2026. On March 23, 2026, 
following this decision to reconsider, the Commission changed its 
determination in the antidumping duty investigation of imports from 
Malaysia from affirmative to negative based on negligibility 
grounds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective November 
21, 2024, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Vitro Flat Glass, LLC, Cheswick, Pennsylvania, and Vitro 
Meadville Flat Glass, LLC, Cochranton, Pennsylvania. The final phase of 
the investigations was scheduled by the Commission following 
notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of 
float glass products from China and Malaysia 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 13, 2025 (90 
FR 38991).\5\ The public hearing in connection with the investigations, 
scheduled for February 5, 2026, was cancelled.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 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 24, 2025 (90 FR 52999) and 
December 11, 2025 (90 FR 57483).
    \6\ 91 FR 5510, February 6, 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 26, 2026. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5715 (March 2026), entitled Float Glass 
Products from China and Malaysia: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-748-749 and 
731-TA-1726-1727 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: March 26, 2026.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
