On 19 January 2010, the Indonesian authorities initiated a safeguard investigation on imports of aluminium foil food containers and aluminium tray and plain lids. The products subject to investigation are classified under the following HS code subheading: 7612.90.90.00. This follows the application lodged by PT. Hanmax Indonesia.
On 7 July 2010, the Indonesian authorities notified the World Trade Organization that they had terminated the investigation, as it could not prove that the threat of injury to the domestic industry was caused by the surge in imports. The investigation was terminated on 14 June 2010.
