U.S. Finds Dumped Steel Propane Cylinders from Thailand

Estimated reading time: 2–4 minutes

The United States Department of Commerce (Commerce) has completed its review of steel propane cylinders imported from Thailand. An administrative review for the period of August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2024, was conducted.

Florida-based company, Sahamitr Pressure Container Public Company Limited (SMPC), was involved in this case. Commerce discovered that SMPC sold steel propane cylinders to the United States at unfairly low prices.

The review process began with preliminary results announced on February 10, 2026. Further comments were invited, and the final results were released on June 17, 2026.

The conclusion showed that Sahamitr Pressure Container Public Company Limited had a dumping margin of 1.01 percent. A dumping margin is the difference between the price in the U.S. and the normal value.

Commerce plans to tell U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) how much antidumping duty to charge. These charges will apply to all covered entries during the specified period.

Importers who have entries during this period should be aware. There is a responsibility to file a certificate about the reimbursement of antidumping duties. Not complying could lead to double duties.

The new cash deposit requirements will be enforced. Importers will pay based on these requirements. The rate for all producers and exporters, not specifically covered, will remain at 10.77 percent.

These measures will stay in place to ensure fair pricing in the market.

The review was overseen by Christopher Abbott, who is the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations.

This action helps keep a fair trade environment in the U.S.
