What changed

The US International Trade Commission (USITC) has issued its final determination in investigations concerning imports of hexamine (hexamethylenetetramine) from China, Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia. These investigations, identified under Inv. Nos. 701-TA-737-738 and 731-TA-1712-1715, address potential antidumping (AD) and countervailing duties (CVD). The final determination date for the overall investigation is December 22, 2025, with specific sub-investigations having earlier determination dates in September 2025.

This final ruling signifies the conclusion of the injury phase of the AD/CVD investigations. If the Department of Commerce previously made affirmative final determinations of dumping or subsidization, the USITC's finding of a domestic industry being materially injured or threatened with material injury by reason of such imports will lead to the imposition of AD and/or CVD orders. Importers and manufacturers dealing with hexamine from these countries should prepare for potential duties based on these final findings. The specific dates for Commerce's preliminary and final determinations are detailed within the document, indicating a phased approach to the final rulings.

What to do next

  1. Review USITC final determination for hexamine imports.
  2. Assess potential impact of AD/CVD duties on supply chains and pricing.
  3. Consult with legal counsel regarding compliance with any imposed duties.
