The American Kitchen Cabinet Alliance (AKCA) filed a petition with the International Trade Commission to impose antidumping duties and tariffs on imports of cabinets from Chinese manufacturers.

The AKCA claims the $10 billion cabinet industry is being harmed by imports of cabinets from Chinese manufacturers. The AKCA claims U.S. cabinet manufacturers have seen poor financial performance despite a 12.5% increase in the number of housing units completed in the U.S. The AKCA blames cheap imports from China for their financial decline.

The petition to the ITC by AKCA claims the kitchen cabinets from China are also sold at a below normal value and the AKCA is requesting an ADD rate of 175.5% to 259%.
