The Trade Remedies Authority (TRA) has initiated a dumping investigation into imports of suspension polyvinylchloride (S-PVC) from China, Mexico, and South Korea. The probe follows an application from INOVYN ChlorVinyls Ltd, the UK’s sole S-PVC producer, alleging dumped imports are harming UK industry. S-PVC is used in products like pipes, window frames, and cables. The investigation will assess whether imports from the three countries are causing injury to the UK sector. If harm is confirmed, a trade remedy may be recommended to ensure fair competition. The TRA will evaluate if the remedy aligns with the UK’s economic interests. Businesses affected can register by 21 August via the Trade Remedies Service. The inquiry period runs from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026, with the injury period spanning 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2026.
