Acting on behalf of Swisspan Limited Company, Ilyashev & Partners has initiated an anti-dumping investigation into the import of wood chipboard originating both from the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation into Ukraine.

Ilyashev & Partners describes Swisspan Limited Company as "one of Ukraine’s leading wood processing companies and manufacturers of furniture chipboard slabs." According to the firm, "the company’s parent is Sorbes AG (Switzerland) that owns two wood processing enterprises in West Ukraine."

According to Ilyashev & Partners, the Interdepartmental Commission on International Trade initiated its anti-dumping investigation on February 20, 2021. According to the firm, "the anti-dumping investigation may take up to 12 months to complete," and, depending on the results, "an anti-dumping duty may be imposed on import of wood chipboard from the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation for the purpose of ensuring fair competition and protecting Ukrainian manufacturers from dumping imports."

The Ilyashev & Partners team is led by Partner Olena Omelchenko.
