China's Ministry of Commerce on Thursday called an end to the antidumping investigation over rubber imports from the United States, the Republic of Korea and the Netherlands.

The ministry made the decision at the request of the Jilin Chemical Industry Company, the company that originally asked for the investigation but who now deem it unnecessary.

China's Ministry of Commerce began its antidumping investigation against imports of ethylene-propylene-non-conjugated diene rubber, mainly used in the construction, wire and cable, and auto industries, on Aug. 10, 2004.

According to China's antidumping laws, the importers of the mentioned chemical products can retrieve their deposits when the goods are handed to Chinese customs.
