U.S. Department of Commerce Finds No Dumping in Review of Chlorinated Isocyanurates from Spain
Estimated reading time: 2–5 minutes
The U.S. Department of Commerce has published its final decision regarding the sale of chlorinated isocyanurates, also known as chlorinated isos, from Spain. The decision covers the period from June 1, 2023, to May 31, 2024. The finding is that these products were not sold in the United States at prices less than their normal value during this time.
Chlorinated isos are chemicals that come from another substance called cyanuric acid.
The company from Spain involved in this review was Ercros S.A. The Department of Commerce found that Ercros did not sell its products at unfairly low prices. As a result, the company was given a weighted-average dumping margin of 0.00 percent. This means there is no penalty or additional duty due to dumping.
The Department of Commerce reviews cases like this one according to rules from the Tariff Act of 1930. This process ensures that products from other countries are not being sold at unfairly low prices that can harm U.S. companies.
The decision to not change the preliminary results comes after asking for comments, but receiving none. Thus, there was no need for a separate decision document.
For products entering the U.S. from Spain now, the cash deposit rate for Ercros will be 0 percent because of the zero dumping margin.
The Department of Commerce has specific rules about handling these cases. U.S. Customs and Border Protection will handle all entries on or after the announcement date according to these rules.
For any previous cases without an assigned rate, the all-others rate will be 24.83 percent. This rate will stay until further announcements.
The Department reminds all parties involved about the correct procedure for returning or destroying any proprietary information. They emphasize the importance of following these guidelines to avoid penalties.
This decision was issued by Christopher Abbott, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations. He was also performing duties of the Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance. This announcement was made on June 1, 2026, and published in the Federal Register.
