The Chinese Ministry of Commerce said Monday it would extend the
anti-dumping investigation against wear resistant overlay, a
critical component of laminate flooring, produced in the United
States and the European Union, by six months till Dec. 13 this
year.
A circular of the ministry put the complexity of the case as the
only reason for the protraction, but didn't give any information on
the current development of the case.
The investigation was launched on June 13 last year, and was
originally planned to conclude on July 13 this year.
