Trade Commission Votes to Proceed with Investigation of Coated Paper Imports

"We're prepared to compete with anyone on fair terms. But the dumping and subsidy practices of China and Indonesia undermine our ability to produce and jeopardize our employees and the communities in which they live," stated Rick Willett, president and chief executive officer of NewPage Corporation. "The advantages domestic producers enjoy from abundant, well-managed forest resources, energy and raw materials, as well as lower transportation and logistics costs aren't enough to compete against the unfair trade practices of some of our Indonesian and Chinese competitors. They just aren't competing fairly."
