One element that is expected to play a crucial role in the development of worldwide capacity and demand in the near future is the impact of the recent world economic crisis. DOW Chemical has claimed that the crisis will not have a significant impact on the ethanolamine business, that the current crisis is bottoming out and prices are expected to pick up again during the second half of 2009. The Union industry on the other hand claimed that demand has fallen by 30 %, their sales prices have fallen sharply and this decrease was higher than the decrease in price of the relevant raw material used for the production of ethanolamines, namely EO and ammonia. DOW Chemical’s claims were not found to be convincing. Historically, demand for certain end-use sectors of the product concerned, like personal care products, was negatively affected by economic downturns. As it was already stated, the impact that the wood treatment legislation in the USA had on US demand is expected to phase out soon while the well-known weakness of the construction and car sector both in Europe and in the USA does not seem to help either the cement sector or the automotive fluids demand for the product concerned at least in the foreseeable future. In addition, textile applications in the USA have also observed a downwards trend over the time and then a levelling off in 2007. All in all, Dow Chemical’s claims regarding the economic crisis and the future development in prices were not confirmed by any available public information submitted during the present investigation. The available information from leading specialised journals confirmed the Union industry’s representation that demand was significantly down, in some sectors even by 40 %. Available post RIP data suggest that dumping has increased compared to the situation prevailing during the RIP. As stated above, during the RIP there was a comparatively significant difference between the EU and US markets with EU prices often higher than US prices. Thus, dumping was found for two US exporters but not for the third one. Towards the end of the RIP and in October 2008 there was clearly an overheating of the market. In particular, US prices increased significantly and overtook the EU prices in two out of the three product types (MEA and DEA which constituted 41 % of the US exports) while the difference with TEA was significantly reduced. Even though prices have decreased significantly since October 2008, the most recent available data suggest that prices in the USA are still higher than those in Europe, especially the prices of MEA and DEA. In other words, any exports from the US to Europe will have to enter at dumped prices if they are to compete with European products on the basis of price.
