Coating Excellence Intl., a supplier of specialty flexible packaging, has made sustainable development an essential element of its business plan — and ultimately its business success — for the past decade. Company founder and CEO Mike Nowak says it has worked to the mutual benefit of both CEI and its customers.
It's too early to tell whether high fuel prices and the falling dollar will be enough to bring offshored operations back home, but some recent moves suggest it's possible. In some cases, domestic suppliers are taking proactive steps to close the gap even further with offshore rivals. For instance, Coating Excellence International (CEI) in Wrightstown, Wis., turned to technology to win business that began moving to Korea.
When CEI started up in 1997, it operated primarily as an extrusion company that concentrated on polycoating and poly-laminating paper substrates. After many expansions, CEI now has eight high-quality flexo presses and can offer services such as adhesive lamination, extrusion lamination, woven bag making and up to 10- color printing (including the ability to backside register print).
By a 6-0 vote, the U.S. International Trade Commission ("ITC") announced today its affirmative decision on the petition filed by U.S. producers of laminated woven polypropylene sacks against dumped and subsidized imports of these products from China. The ITC's affirmative vote means that U.S. importers of these products from China will be required to pay high duties to offset unfair pricing and Chinese government subsidies. This will restore fair competition in the U.S. market.
As a result of today’s ruling, U.S, Customs and Border Protection will impose preliminary antidumping duties on all imports of laminated woven sacks from China to offset the dumped pricing. Dumping occurs when products are sold in the U.S, at prices that are below fair value in the producer’s home market.
The U.S. Department of Commerce today found that imports of laminated woven sacks from China were benefiting from unfair subsidies.The Department of Commerce is charged with the enforcement of U.S. trade remedy laws including enforcing our domestic antisubsidy law, the CVD law. Anti-dumping trade rules and countervailing duty trade rules are both tools that are sanctioned by the WTO to deal with unfair pricing and subsidization of imports.
In its preliminary investigation, the U.S. International Trade Commission believes there is a reasonable indication that the importation of laminated woven sacks from China have a material impact on the U.S. market. The sacks are alleged to be sold in the U.S. at less than Fair Market Value and are being subsidized by the government of China.
