HANOVER PARK, ILL., Oct. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Communication Division, today released the following statement from Hidetoshi (Toshi) Kino regarding the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) final determination on antidumping (AD) and countervailing duties (CVD) on imports of aluminum lithographic printing plates from Japan and China:
“We are disappointed in the International Trade Commission’s (ITC) decision today and we believe that Fujifilm is a responsible market provider of aluminum lithographic printing plates. Our customers clearly purchase our aluminum lithographic printing plates because of the innovative technology and superior features and service that we provide.
