English: In sum, it can be concluded that the imposition of measures may indeed have a possible negative effect on the financial situation of certain importers. On average however, this negative effect is not expected to have a significant financial impact on the overall situation of the importers.
French: En résumé, il peut être conclu que l’institution de mesures pourrait effectivement affecter la situation financière de certains importateurs, mais, en moyenne, cette incidence négative ne devrait pas sensiblement affaiblir la situation financière globale de cette catégorie d’importateurs.
English: CCCLA pointed to a Danish study according to which for each euro Union producers gain from trade protection, user companies in the Union must pay up to more than 60 times as much. Yet this statement is very general, it does not specifically related to this investigation and there is no evidence that shows that this would indeed be the impact in this investigation.
French: La CCCLA a fait référence à une étude danoise selon laquelle, pour un euro gagné par les producteurs de l’Union grâce à un système de protection commerciale, les sociétés utilisatrices dans l’Union doivent payer jusqu’à 60 EUR. Cette déclaration est toutefois très générale et n’est pas directement liée à la présente enquête; en outre, aucun élément ne montre que ces répercussions seraient les mêmes dans le cas présent.

French: & Exp. Co., Ltd.
English: The Commission sought and verified all the information deemed necessary for a provisional determination of dumping, resulting injury and Union interest. Verification visits were carried out at the premises of the following companies:
Italian: La Commissione ha raccolto e verificato tutte le informazioni ritenute necessarie ai fine della determinazione provvisoria del dumping, del conseguente pregiudizio e dell’interesse dell’Unione e ha effettuato visite di verifica presso le sedi delle seguenti aziende:
Hungarian: A Bizottság összegyűjtötte és ellenőrizte a dömping, az ebből következő kár és az uniós érdek ideiglenes meghatározásához szükségesnek ítélt valamennyi információt.. A következő vállalatok telephelyén történtek ellenőrző látogatások:
English: The vast majority of export to the Union consists, however, of A-grade, B-grade or C-grade or a combination thereof. This grading is however not universal or based on any general industry wide standards but is rather company specific and allows for price differentiation.
Hungarian: Az Unióba irányuló export ugyanakkor túlnyomórészt A, B vagy C osztályú, illetve ezek kombinációját jelentő termékekből áll. Ez az osztályozás azonban nem egyetemes, és nem általános ágazati szabványokon alapul, hanem meglehetősen vállalatspecifikus és az ár szerinti megkülönböztetésre szolgál.
English: It estimated a decrease of 2-3 % in employment (more for young people) and of 20 % in imports. However, the suggested impact seems to be overstated.
Hungarian: A szövetség a foglalkoztatottság (inkább fiatalok körében bekövetkező) 2-3 %-os csökkenését, és a behozatal 20 %-os csökkenését említette becslésében.
Lithuanian: Apskaičiuota, kad užimtumas sumažės 2–3 % (daugiausia jaunimo užimtumas), importas – 20 % Tačiau atrodo, kad toks tariamas poveikis yra perdėtas.
English: A Swedish association representing relevant Swedish importers made representations in favour of excluding hand-made porcelain from the product scope of the investigation. It invoked the long history of such handicraft in China, its affordability and the different consumer perception between Chinese handmade items versus non-handmade items produced in the Union.
Italian: Un’associazione svedese che rappresenta alcuni tra i principali importatori di quel paese si è dichiarata favorevole all’esclusione della porcellana fatta a mano dalla gamma dei prodotti in esame, richiamandosi alla tradizione di questa attività artigianale in Cina, alla sua accessibilità economica e alla diversa percezione che i consumatori hanno degli articoli cinesi di porcellana fatta a mano, rispetto a quelli (non fatti a mano) dell’Unione.
English: Some importers’ representations claim that the investigation should be limited to markets currently being served by complaining Union producers. Otherwise duties would harm certain ‘specialised’ importers without them being able to source from Union producers.
Italian: Secondo alcuni importatori l’inchiesta dovrebbe essere limitata ai mercati attualmente serviti dai produttori dell’Unione denunzianti; in caso contrario i dazi danneggerebbero alcuni importatori «specializzati» che non sarebbero in grado di approvvigionarsi dai produttori dell’Unione.
English: The Commission officially disclosed the results of the MET findings to the companies concerned in the PRC, the authorities of the PRC and the complainant. They were given an opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing if there were particular reasons to be heard.
Italian: La Commissione ha ufficialmente comunicato i risultati del TEM alle aziende interessate della RPC, alle autorità della RPC e al denunziante; essi hanno avuto la possibilità di comunicare i propri pareri per iscritto e di chiedere un’audizione qualora vi fossero particolari motivi per sentire le parti.
English: SMEs accounted for 42 % of the total Union production in that period. Indeed, the Union production is highly fragmented, though concentrated in Czech Republic, French Republic (France), Germany, Italy, Republic of Poland (Poland), Portuguese Republic (Portugal), Romania, Kingdom of Spain (Spain) and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (United Kingdom).
Italian: In quel periodo le PMI rappresentavano il 42 % della produzione totale dell’Unione, che in effetti è molto frammentata, benché concentrata nella Repubblica ceca e in Francia, Germania, Italia, Polonia, Portogallo, Romania, Spagna e Regno Unito.
English: Overall, the cash flow of the Union industry significantly increased during the period considered. However this is to be attributed to some bigger and well-established companies – this was not the case of SMEs.
Italian: Complessivamente, il flusso di cassa dell’industria dell’Unione è aumentato sensibilmente nel periodo considerato; ciò vale tuttavia per alcune aziende consolidate e di grandi dimensioni, ma non per le PMI.
English: It could not establish a link between a specific production method and success in the business. It could not establish either that having opted for a specific production method was significant enough to have an impact such as to break the causal link between dumped imports from the country concerned and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Italian: Non ha potuto stabilire un nesso tra uno specifico metodo di produzione e il successo commerciale; né ha potuto stabilire che la scelta di uno specifico metodo di produzione abbia comportato un impatto tanto significativo da interrompere il nesso di causalità tra le importazioni oggetto di dumping dal paese interessato e il pregiudizio subito dall’industria dell’Unione.
English: However, no information was submitted to substantiate the claim. The investigation could not establish any finding about this issue.
Italian: Non sono state però presentate informazioni a sostegno di tale tesi, e l’inchiesta non ha potuto raggiungere risultati in merito.
English: Their level of cooperation varied. For instance, the two largest importers in the sample, which also have major retail activities, did not provide full profitability data and the margin between purchase and resale prices to unrelated customers and one of them even denied access to its accounts.
Italian: Anche il livello di cooperazione reciproca variava: per esempio, i due maggiori importatori inclusi nel campione – che gestiscono anche importanti attività al dettaglio – non ci hanno fornito dati completi, né in materia di redditività né per il margine tra i prezzi di acquisto e di rivendita a clienti indipendenti; uno di essi, anzi, ha persino negato l’accesso alla contabilità.
English: According to this party, which sources some two thirds of the products from Asia, mainly China, a significant duty would destroy its ability to sell at promotion prices in the future. It must be recognised that anti-dumping duties may negatively affect this type of business.
Italian: Secondo questo soggetto, il quale reperisce due terzi dei propri prodotti in Asia, e soprattutto in Cina, un dazio consistente lo metterebbe nell’impossibilità di vendere in futuro a prezzi da promozione.
English: Certain types of the product would disappear from the market or be replaced by other materials such as plastic, melamine, metal or wood. In general these options would be more environmentally unfriendly products.
Italian: Alcune tipologie di prodotti scomparirebbero dal mercato o verrebbero sostituite da altri materiali come la plastica, la melammina, il metallo o il legno; tali alternative sarebbero generalmente più dannose dal punto di vista ambientale.
Maltese: Allegatament, dan il-prodott għandu limiti psikoloġiċi tal-prezzijiet li ‘l fuq minnhom il-konsumaturi ma jkunux lesti li jixtru. Ċerti tipi tal-prodott ma jibqgħux jidhru fis-suq jew jiġu sostitwiti minn materjali oħrajn bħal plastik, melamina, metall jew injam. B’mod ġenerali, dawn l-għażliet ikunu prodotti li jagħmlu aktar ħsara lill-ambjent.
English: Thus, the duty will most likely be taken up by the supply chain from the importer to the final consumer. Should some price increases take place, they will be small and not impact on the consumer choice.
Italian: Assai probabilmente, quindi, il dazio verrà assorbito dalla catena di approvvigionamento dall’importatore al consumatore finale; gli eventuali aumenti di prezzo saranno limitati e non incideranno sulla scelta dei consumatori.
English: The claims regarding supply problems cannot be accepted because, on the one hand, the fact of creating a level playing field with fair prices is not tantamount to fully removing imports from China. On the contrary, all world players are expected to benefit from a fairer trade situation.
Italian: Le argomentazioni relative a problemi di offerta non sono accettabili: da un lato la creazione di condizioni operative uniformi con prezzi equi non equivale all’eliminazione completa delle importazioni dalla Cina; al contrario, è prevedibile che tutti gli attori mondiali si avvantaggerebbero da una più equa situazione degli scambi.
English: Branded products are normally perceived by customers to be products signifying a certain prestige, assured quality and design thus commanding higher market prices whereas generic (private label) products, whilst having the same physical and technical characteristics, are usually sold at considerably lower price levels. While the additional value of a branded product cannot generally be exactly quantified as it depends on many different factors, such as customer perception, brand recognition and other non-quantifiable factors, the Brazilian producer has, in this particular case, confirmed that its ceramic branded products can be sold at significantly higher prices on the Brazilian market than other non-branded (generic) products.
Lithuanian: Vartotojai prekės ženklais pažymėtus produktus suvokia kaip prestižinius, užtikrintos kokybės ir dizaino, taigi didesnės rinkos kainos, o generiniai (savo etikete paženklinti) produktai paprastai parduodami gerokai žemesnėmis kainomis, nors jų fizinės ir techninės savybės tokios pat. Nors prekės ženklu pažymėto produkto papildomą vertę paprastai sunku tiksliai įvardyti, nes ji priklauso nuo įvairių veiksnių, pavyzdžiui, klientų suvokimo, prekės ženklo pripažinimo ir kitų skaičiais neįvardijamų veiksnių, Brazilijos gamintojas šiuo konkrečiu atveju patvirtino, kad jo keraminiai produktai, pažymėti prekės ženklu, Brazilijos rinkoje gali būti parduodami gerokai didesne kaina negu kiti prekės ženklu nepažymėti (generiniai) produktai.
English: The consumption of ceramic tableware and kitchenware in the Union overall decreased during the period considered by 12 %. The main decrease by 17 % happened between 2008 and 2009.
Lithuanian: Bendras keraminių stalo ir virtuvės reikmenų vartojimas Sąjungoje per nagrinėjamąjį laikotarpį sumažėjo 12 % Vartojimas labiausiai (17 %) sumažėjo 2008–2009 m.
English: The production of the Union industry decreased by 15 % over the period considered. In overall terms, the reduction is more pronounced than the decrease of Union consumption over the same period.
Lithuanian: Nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu Sąjungos pramonės gamyba sumažėjo 15 % Apskritai, gamybos sumažėjimas ryškesnis negu Sąjungos vartojimo sumažėjimas tuo pačiu laikotarpiu.
English: The Union’s industry production capacity decreased by 13 % over the period considered. In spite of this, the industry’s capacity utilisation rate further decreased during the period considered, overall by 2 % to 74,1 %.
Dutch: Hoewel de productiecapaciteit van de bedrijfstak van de Unie in de beoordelingsperiode met 13 % daalde, daalde de algemene bezettingsgraad van de bedrijfstak in die periode verder met 2 %, tot 74,1 %.
Lithuanian: Per nagrinėjamąjį laikotarpį Sąjungos pramonės gamybos pajėgumai sumažėjo 13 % Nepaisant to, pramonės pajėgumų panaudojimo rodiklis nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu toliau mažėjo – iš viso jis sumažėjo 2 %, t. y. iki 74,1 %
English: The employment decreased throughout the period considered and fell by 21 %. The trend follows the same pattern as the decline of sales volumes on the Union market to unrelated customers.
Lithuanian: Užimtumas mažėjo visą nagrinėjamąjį laikotarpį ir sumažėjo 21 % Tendencija panaši į pardavimo nesusijusiems pirkėjams apimties mažėjimo Sąjungos rinkoje tendenciją.
English: Productivity of the Union industry’s workforce, measured as output per person employed per year, increased by 8 % over the period considered. This is partly due to the efforts of the Union industry to respond to the pressure derived from dumped imports from China.
Lithuanian: Nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu Sąjungos pramonės darbo jėgos našumas, vertinamas kaip vieno darbuotojo metinis našumas, padidėjo 8 % Tai nutiko iš dalies dėl Sąjungos pramonės pastangų reaguoti į spaudimą, jaučiamą dėl importo dempingo kainomis iš Kinijos.
English: The level of closing stocks of the Union industry decreased in absolute terms by 14 % over the period considered. The investigation revealed that this is not a crucial indicator for this type of industry, which basically works on orders.
Lithuanian: Nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu Sąjungos pramonės laikotarpio pabaigos atsargų lygis absoliučiais skaičiais sumažėjo 14 % Atliekant tyrimą nustatyta, kad tai šios rūšies pramonės, kurioje daugiausia gaminama pagal užsakymus, atveju tai nėra esminis rodiklis.
English: That profit level is 6 % [7]. It is thus clear that overall the Union industry, throughout the period considered, was never able to reach a profit level which can be deemed acceptable for this product.
Portuguese: Esse nível de lucro é de 6 % [7].
Lithuanian: Tas pelno lygis yra 6 % [7] Taigi, akivaizdu, kad nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu Sąjungos pramonė apskritai negalėjo pasiekti pelno lygio, kurį būtų galima laikyti priimtinu šio produkto atveju.
English: Between 2008 and the IP, the average wage per employee increased by 2 %. This labour cost increase is significantly below the overall labour cost development in the Union during the period considered, which suggests that the Union industry made efforts to keep labour wages as low as possible.
Lithuanian: 2008 m.–TL vidutinis darbuotojo darbo užmokestis padidėjo 2 % Šis darbo sąnaudų padidėjimas gerokai atsilieka nuo bendros darbo sąnaudų raidos Sąjungoje nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu, ir tai reiškia, kad Sąjungos pramonė stengėsi darbo užmokestį išlaikyti kuo mažesnį.
English: The investigation showed that the Union consumption decreased by 12 % over the period considered. At the same time while the volume of dumped imports from China decreased by about 9 %, their market share increased. Moreover, sales volume of the Union industry decreased by 20 % and market share dropped from 23 % in 2008 to 20,9 % in the IP.
Lithuanian: Atliekant tyrimą nustatyta, kad nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu Sąjungos vartojimas sumažėjo 12 % Kartu importo dempingo kainomis iš Kinijos rinkos dalis didėjo, nors jo kiekis sumažėjo maždaug 9 % Be to, Sąjungos pramonės pardavimo apimtis sumažėjo 20 %, o rinkos dalis susitraukė nuo 23 % 2008 m. iki 20,9 % per TL.
English: Thirdly, as the above table shows, overall exports from the Union decreased by 3 %. Lastly, the exports prices of the cooperating sampled producers sales remained stable over the period considered.
Lithuanian: Trečia, kaip matyti iš aukščiau pateiktos lentelės, bendra eksporto iš Sąjungos apimtis sumažėjo 3 % Galiausiai, bendradarbiaujančių atrinktų gamintojų eksporto kainos nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu tebebuvo stabilios.
English: SMEs were suffering the most: in the period considered, they were loss-making since 2010. In the absence of measures, it is considered that the efforts already made in the sector will not be sufficient to allow the recovery of the Union industry’s financial situation which might deteriorate further.
Polish: Najbardziej ucierpiały MŚP: w okresie badanym odnotowywały straty od 2010 r. Uwzględniając brak środków, uznaje się, że działania już podjęte w sektorze nie będą wystarczające, by umożliwić uzdrowienie sytuacji finansowej przemysłu unijnego, która może nadal się pogarszać.
Lithuanian: Labiausiai nukentėjo MVĮ – nagrinėjamuoju laikotarpiu jos veikė nuostolingai nuo 2010 m. Jei priemonės nebus nustatytos, laikoma, kad jau įdėtų sektoriaus pastangų nepakaks, kad atsigautų Sąjungos pramonės finansinė padėtis, kuri gali toliau prastėti.
English: However, firstly, as concerns importers, the vast majority of the importers which replied to the importers’ sampling questions reported a gross margin between purchase and resale price ranging between 50 % and 200 %. The verified figures of the pure importers in the sample confirm that such gross margins are representative.
Lithuanian: Tačiau, pirma, didžioji dauguma į importuotojų atrankos klausimus atsakiusių importuotojų nurodė bendrąją pirkimo ir perpardavimo kainų skirtumą, kuris svyravo nuo 50 iki 200 % Patikrinti atrinktų grynųjų importuotojų skaičiai patvirtino, kad tokie bendrieji skirtumai yra tipiniai.
English: According to a recent publication [10], a Chinese ceramic mug which is purchased by EU distributors for USD 0.70 would retail, in the EU, for USD 3.50 — with a mark-up of more than 150 % for the distributor/retailer. In such scenario, the anti-dumping duties as proposed would result for most imports in an extra charge of EUR 0,16 (and of EUR 0,36 for non-cooperating producers) for the EU supply chain which would have, overall, a gross margin of EUR 2.08 on this particular product.
Lithuanian: Remiantis neseniai paskelbtu straipsniu [10], kiniško keraminio puodelio, kurį ES platintojai perka už 0,70 JAV dolerio (USD), mažmeninė kaina ES yra 3,50 EUR, taigi platintojo ir (arba) mažmenininko antkainis yra didesnis negu 150 % Šiomis aplinkybėmis, dėl siūlomų antidempingo muitų daugeliui importuotojų teks papildomas 0,16 EUR mokestis (ir 0,36 EUR nebendradarbiaujantiems gamintojams) ES tiekimo grandinėje, ir dėl to gamybinis pelnas šio konkretaus produkto atveju bus 2,08 EUR. Be to, 112 konstatuojamojoje dalyje paminėtame 2009 m. CBI rinkos tyrime, susijusiame su „stalo, virtuvės ir kitų namų ūkio reikmenų rinkomis“, teigiama, kad CIF kainų ES pasienyje ir vartotojų kainų skirtumas yra 2,6–5,3 [11].
English: Moreover, the 2009 CBI market survey on ‘tableware, kitchenware and other household markets’ referred to in recital 112 above reports EU border CIF – consumer prices ratios ranging between 2,6 and 5,3 [11]. Finally, the sampled importers/retailers never indicated that they will exclude the ceramic tableware and kitchenware from their imports or sales if anti-dumping duties were imposed.
Lithuanian: Galiausiai atrinkti importuotojai ir (arba) mažmenininkai niekada netvirtino, kad nebeimportuos arba nebepardavinės keraminių stalo ir virtuvės reikmenų, jei bus nustatyti antidempingo muitai.
English: Submissions on Union interest were received from more than 20 non-sampled importers, mostly small enterprises, an association of European and International commerce, a Swedish association of importers and retailers, a Dutch association of importers from the Far East and a Germany-based association and network of importers. A common concern of the importers was that measures would entail import price increases, a (partial) shrinkage of their business and thus a negative impact on them in general in terms of margins and profitability, inter alia.
Polish: Odpowiedzi dotyczące interesu Unii otrzymano od ponad 20 importerów nieobjętych próbą, głównie od małych przedsiębiorstw, jednego stowarzyszenia na rzecz europejskiego i międzynarodowego handlu, szwedzkiego stowarzyszenia importerów i detalistów, holenderskiego stowarzyszenia importerów z Dalekiego Wschodu oraz ze stowarzyszenia i sieci importerów z siedzibą w Niemczech.
Lithuanian: Su Sąjungos interesais susijusios informacijos gauta iš daugiau kaip 20 neatrinktų importuotojų, daugiausia – mažų įmonių, Europos ir tarptautinių prekybos asociacijų, Švedijos importuotojų ir mažmenininkų asociacijos, Nyderlandų importuotojų iš Tolimų Rytų asociacijos ir Vokietijoje įsteigtos importuotojų asociacijos ir tinklo.
English: However, as explained in recitals (29)-(34) above, it was also deemed appropriate to narrow down the product scope definition on the basis of which the current investigation has been initiated by excluding ceramic knives. Therefore, the product concerned is provisionally defined as ceramic tableware and kitchenware, excluding ceramic knives, originating in the People’s Republic of China, currently falling within CN codes ex69111000, ex69120010, ex69120030, ex69120050 and ex69120090.
Maltese: Madankollu, kif ġie spjegat fil-premessi (29)-(34) aktar ‘il fuq, kien meqjus ukoll bħala xieraq li tiġi limitata d-definizzjoni tal-ambitu tal-prodott li abbażi tagħha kienet inbdiet l-investigazzjoni attwali billi jiġu esklużi s-skieken taċ-ċeramika. Għalhekk, il-prodott ikkonċernat huwa definit b’mod provviżorju bħala oġġetti taċ-ċeramika ta’ fuq il-mejda u tal-kċina, minbarra skieken taċ-ċeramika, li joriġinaw mir-Repubblika Popolari taċ-Ċina u li bħalissa jaqgħu fl-ambitu tal-kodiċi CN ex69111000, ex69120010, ex69120030, ex69120050 u ex69120090.
English: The Union producers accounting for the total Union production constitute the Union industry within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the basic Regulation and will be thereafter referred to as the ‘Union industry’. The Union industry was divided into two segments: SMEs and larger companies.
Portuguese: Os produtores da União responsáveis pela produção total da União constituem a indústria da União, na aceção do artigo 4.o, n.o 1, do regulamento de base, sendo designados em seguida «indústria da União».A indústria da União foi dividida em dois segmentos: as PME e as empresas de maior dimensão.
Maltese: Il-produtturi tal-Unjoni, li huma responsabbli mill-produzzjoni totali tal-Unjoni, jikkostitwixxu l-industrija tal-Unjoni skont it-tifsira tal-Artikolu 4(1) tar-Regolament bażiku u minn hawn ‘il quddiem issir referenza għalihom bħala l-‘industrija tal-Unjoni’. L-industrija tal-Unjoni inqasmet f’żewġ segmenti: SMEs u kumpaniji akbar.
English: In the Union, low income consumers would represent the highest share of the consumers and will be confronted to a more limited choice and higher prices for no additional value and this at a time of a fragile EU economy. Allegedly, this product has psychological price-limits above which consumers would not buy.
Maltese: Fl-Unjoni, il-konsumaturi bi dħul baxx jirrappreżentaw l-ogħla sehem tal-konsumaturi u ser jiġu kkonfrontati għal għażla aktar limitata u prezzijiet ogħla għal ebda valur addizzjonali u dan fi żmien ta’ ekonomija tal-UE fraġli.
