Washington – September 15, 2026 -- The American Pizza Boxes Manufacturers Coalition and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union filed petitions with the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission alleging that corrugated pizza box imports from China, Malaysia, and Turkey are sold at dumping margins as high as 568.50%.

Dumping margins reach triple digits across three countries
The petitions cite dumping rates ranging from 96.62% to 568.50% for Chinese producers, 110.73% for Malaysian producers, and 120.65% to 210.37% for Turkish producers. Turkish manufacturers additionally benefit from countervailable subsidies, including tax breaks and discounted raw materials from the Turkish government, plus cross-border subsidies attributed to the Russian government.
