I betragtning af faldende volumen og markedsandel samt relativt høje priser kan det konkluderes, at importen fra USA, hvad enten det drejer sig om import fra Whirlpool selv eller fra en uafhængig konkurrent, ikke tilføjede EF-industrigrenen skade.
Given the declining volume, market share and the relatively high prices, it is concluded that imports from the USA, be it by Whirlpool itself or by an independent competitor, did not cause any injury to the Community industry.

Følger relateret til opstartsfasen
Consequence of start-up operations
En interesseret part hævdede, at enhver skade registreret af EF-erhvervsgrenen var relateret til opstartsfasen for det nyopførte produktionsanlæg.
One interested party claimed that any injury felt by the Community industry was due to the start-up operations of the newly built production facility.
Denne interesserede part hævdede endvidere, at de første eksemplarer af samme vare fremstillet på EF-erhvervsgrenens produktionsanlæg kom på markedet omtrent i april 2003.
The said interested party further alleged that the first like products manufactured in the facility of the Community industry reached the market some time in April 2003.
Dette er ikke korrekt.
This is incorrect.
Produktionen på anlægget startede i april 2002, og disse varer blev solgt allerede i 2002.
The facility started its operation in April 2002 and these products were sold already in 2002.
Som angivet i betragtning (62), var EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet stærkt negativ i året for opstarten (2002).
As shown under recital (62) above, the profitability of the Community industry was indeed highly negative in the year of the start-up (2002).
Rentabiliteten forbedres imidlertid markant allerede i 2003, idet den næsten nåede breakeven-niveau.
However, already in 2003, profitability improved markedly and almost reached a break-even level.
I 2004 og i undersøgelsesperioden forværredes rentabiliteten igen.
In 2004 and the IP, profitability deteriorated again.
Det argument, denne interesserede part har fremført, forklarer ikke, hvorfor rentabiliteten efter en forudsigeligt svær opstartsperiode i 2002 steg markant (i 2003) for sidenhen at falde (i 2004 og undersøgelsesperioden).
The argument of this interested party bears no explanation as to the reasons why after, indeed, a foreseeably difficult start-up period in 2002, profitability improved markedly (2003) before deteriorating (2004 and IP).
Virkningerne af salget af andre køleskabstyper
Effects of sales of other types of refrigerators
En interesseret part fremførte, at bedømmelsen af den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt, også bør baseres på virkningerne af salget af andre køleskabstyper, idet forbrugere, der interesseret i køleskabe, kan vælge mellem alle typer køleskabe, når de træffer beslutning om køb.
One interested party claimed that when assessing the injurious situation of the Community industry, attention should be paid also to the effect of sales of other types of refrigerators, as consumers seeking refrigerators have a choice among all types of refrigerators in making their buying decisions.
Det blev i betragtning (9) til (17) slået fast, at Fællesskabets marked for den pågældende vare og samme vare er et særskilt og klart idenficerbart markedssegment i forhold til andre køleskabe.
It has been determined under recitals (9) to (17) above that the Community market for the product concerned and the like product constitute a market which is autonomous and distinct from the markets of other refrigerators.
Spørgsmålet om konkurrencen mellem dette marked og markedet for enhver anden vare er derfor ikke relevant, og argumentet afvises derfor.
The issue of the competition between this market and the market of any other product is therefore irrelevant and the argument is rejected.
Under alle omstændigheder er analysen af EF-industrigrenens situation i betragtning (48) til (71) udelukkende foretaget på basis af data vedrørende »side by side«-køleskabe.
In any event, the analysis of the situation of the Community industry in recitals (48) to (71) above has been made solely on the basis of data relating to side-by-side refrigerators.
Selvforskyldt skade på grund af forkerte beslutninger med hensyn til design og markedsføring
Self-inflicted injury due to erroneous design and marketing decisions
En interesseret part hævdede, at den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen havde lidt, ikke var forårsaget af dumping, men var selvforskyldt på grund af en række forkerte strategiske beslutninger.
One interested party claimed that the injury suffered by the Community industry was not caused by dumping but was rather self-inflicted due to a number of erroneous strategic decisions.
Denne part nævnte detaljer som det angiveligt forkerte låge-design (buede låger), dyre udvendige materialer (f.eks. rustfrit stål) og længere produktfornyelsescyklusser.
In detail, this party mentioned the allegedly wrong door design (rounded doors), expensive outer materials (i.e. stainless steel) and longer product renewal cycle.
Hvad den første påstand angår, bør det bemærkes, at EF-industrigrenen altid har produceret og markedsført modeller med såvel buede som flade låger.
As to the first point, it should be noted that the Community industry has always produced and offered models with both rounded and flat doors.
Desuden viser EF-industrigrenens salgstal og markedsundersøgelser en klar præference blandt forbrugerne for modeller med buede døre til trods for ovennævnte parts påstand.
Further, the Community industry’s sales figures and market studies show a clear preference of consumers for rounded door models, contrary to the allegations of the above party.
Endelig bemærkes det, at ovennævnte part for nylig selv introducerede en modelserie med buede døre, og at denne disposition må siges at være i konflikt med ovennævnte påstand.
Finally, it is noted that the above party itself has recently introduced a rounded door range, a decision at odds with its above allegation.
Med hensyn til den anden påstand fremgik det af undersøgelsen, at EF-industrigrenen ikke kun anvender rustfrit stål som udvendigt materiale for samme vare, men også andre og billigere materialer.
As to the second point, the investigation found that the Community industry does not only use stainless steel for the outer finishing of the like product, but also other cheaper materials.
Desuden fremgår det af en sammenligning mellem omkostningerne ved EF-industrigrenens anvendelse af rustfrit stål og omkostningerne ved nærmeste erstatning herfor, som anvendes af koreanske eksporterende producenter, at forskellen beløber sig til ca. 1 % af de samlede produktionsomkostninger.
In any event, a comparison of the cost of the stainless steel used by the Community industry with the cost of its nearest substitute as used by Korean exporting producers evidenced that the difference would amount to around 1 % of the total costs of production.
På denne baggrund kan omkostningerne ved anvendelse af rustfrit stål ikke hævdes alene at have forårsaget den skade, EF-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Against this background, the cost of the stainless steel outer finishing cannot be the only cause for the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Hvad angår den tredje påstand er EF-industrigrenens produktfornyelsescyklus på 1-2 år, mens den interesserede part skifter model hvert år.
As to the third point, the Community industry implements a product renewal cycle of one to two years, while the above interested party changes models annually.
Ganske vist er EF-industrigrenens produktfornyelsescyklus en smule langsommere end ovennævnte interesserede parts, men den ligger på linje med amerikanske producenters.
Admittedly, the product renewal cycle of the Community industry is slightly less rapid than that of the above interested party, but it is in line with that of US producers.
Ovennævnte interesserede part har ikke fremlagt dokumentation for, hvorfor og hvordan en kortere produktfornyelsescyklus på ét år i stedet for to år automatisk skulle kunne udløse højere salgstal og større rentabilitet.
The above interested party has not provided any material evidence as to why and how a shorter product renewal cycle of one year instead of two years would automatically trigger higher sales volumes and higher profits.
EF-industrigrenen har til gengæld fremlagt dokumentation for, at handelspartnere og detailhandlere ikke er positivt stemt over for hyppige fornyelser af produktsortimentet på grund af de hermed forbundne høje omkostninger i forbindelse med udstilling og kataloger.
Instead, the Community industry has provided evidence that trade partners and retailers do not favour too frequent renewals of the product range, due to the high costs of display and catalogues involved.
De angiveligt forkerte dispositioner vedrørende design og markedsføring har derfor i givet fald kun spillet en marginal rolle i forbindelse med den skade EF-erhversgrenen har lidt, og dette i et omfang, der ikke kan bryde den nævnte årsagssammenhæng.
The issue of allegedly erroneous design and marketing decisions therefore only played a marginal role, if any, in the injury suffered by the Community industry, to an extent that is not such as to break the causal link.
Konkurrence inden for forskellige produktsortimenter
Competition in different product ranges
En interesseret part hævdede, i) at den ikke konkurrerede med EF-erhvervsgrenen inden for samme produktsortiment, ii) at konklusioner på basis af en sammenligning mellem gennemsnitspriser var vildledende, og iii) at den følgelig ikke kunne have påført EF-erhvervsgrenen skade.
One interested party claimed that (i) it was not competing with the Community industry in the same product range; (ii) drawing conclusions from a comparison of average prices was misleading; and (iii) as a consequence, it could not have caused injury to the Community industry.
Den ensartethed, der præger det varesortiment, som den pågældende vare og samme vare tilhører, er defineret i betragtning (9) til (17) ovenfor.
The homogeneity of the scope of the product concerned and of the like product has been defined under recitals (9) to (17) above.
Ethvert marked, der defineres på denne måde, omfatter en række typer, modeller og kvaliteter.
Obviously, each market so defined encompasses a number of types, models or qualities.
Imidlertid deler de forskellige modeller fysiske, tekniske og anvendelsesmæssige egenskaber, og der kan ikke drages nogen klare grænser mellem det ene segment og det andet, idet der er overlapning mellem segmenter, der grænser op til hinanden.
However, these various models share the same basic physical, technical and end-use characteristics and no clear dividing line can be drawn between one segment and the other, as overlaps exist between adjoining segments.
Beregningerne af prisunderbuddet er foretaget på basis af en model (se betragtning (47) ovenfor), og ikke kun på basis af gennemsnitspriser.
Undercutting calculations have been made on a model basis (see recital (47) above), and not simply on an average price basis.
Den pågældende eksporterende producents underbud i forhold til EF-erhvervsgrenens priser er dokumenteret ved næsten alle de sammenlignede modeller.
Undercutting of the Community industry’s prices by the export prices of this exporting producer has been evidenced for virtually all the models compared.
Det kan konkluderes, at ovenstående analyse har vist, at der var en omfattende stigning i mængde og markedsandel for importen af varer med oprindelse i det pågældende land, især mellem 2002 og undersøgelsesperioden, såvel som et betydeligt fald i salgspriserne og et højt prisunderbudsniveau i undersøgelsesperioden.
In conclusion, the above analysis has demonstrated that there was a substantial increase in volume and market share of the imports originating in the country concerned between 2002 and the IP, together with a considerable decrease in their sales prices and a high level of price undercutting during the IP.
Denne stigning i markedsandelen for koreansk lavprisimport faldt tidsmæssig sammen med en nedgang i EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel og enhedssalgspriserne og et fald i rentabilitet, investeringsafkast og likviditet for driften.
This increase in market share of the low-priced Korean imports coincided with a decline in the Community industry’s market share and in unit sales price, and with the drop in profitability, in return on investments and cash-flow from operating activities.
På den anden side har undersøgelsen af andre faktorer, som kunne have påført EF-industrigrenen skade, vist, at ingen af disse faktorer kunne have haft en væsentlig negativ indflydelse.
On the other hand, the examination of the other factors which could have injured the Community industry revealed that none of these could have had a significant negative impact.
På baggrund af ovenstående analyse, hvor der blev behørigt skelnet mellem alle de kendte faktorer, der har betydning for EF-erhvervsgrenens situation, og de skadevoldende virkninger af dumpingimporten, konkluderes det foreløbigt, at dumpingimporten fra det pågældende land har forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen væsentlig skade som defineret i artikel 3, stk. 6, i grundforordningen.
Based on the above analysis which has properly distinguished and separated the effects of all known factors on the situation of the Community industry from the injurious effects of the dumped imports, it is provisionally concluded that the dumped imports originating in the country concerned have caused material injury to the Community industry within the meaning of Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation.
Som angivet i betragtning (39) består EF-erhvervsgrenen af et enkelt selskab med et produktionsanlæg i Italien; selskabet beskæftiger 300-500 personer, som er direkte involveret i produktion, salg og administration af samme produkt.
As indicated under recital (39) above, the Community industry is composed of one company, with one production facility in Italy, and employs in the range of 300-500 persons directly involved in the production, sales and administration of the like product.
Hvis der indføres foranstaltninger, forventes EF-industrigrenens salg på Fællesskabets marked at stige.
If measures are imposed, it is expected that the sales volumes of the Community industry on the Community market would rise.
Det forventes derfor, at stigende produktion, kapacitetsudnyttelse og produktivitet og det heraf følgende sandsynlige fald i enhedspriser vil gøre det muligt for EF-erhvervsgrenen at forbedre sin finansielle situation og samtidig blive i stand til at tilbyde mere konkurrencedygtige priser.
It is therefore expected that the increase in production, the rise in capacity utilisation and productivity and the resulting likely decrease in unit costs, will allow the Community industry to improve its financial situation and, at the same time, to offer more competitive prices.
Dette vil reducere den betragtelige forskel mellem EF-erhvervsgrenens priser og de koreanske producenters.
This would reduce the substantial gap found between Community industry’s prices and Korean producers’ prices.
EF-erhvervsgrenens leverandørers interesser
Interest of suppliers of the Community industry
To af EF-erhvervsgrenens leverandører, der leverer to af de vigtigste råmaterialer, der anvendes af EF-erhvervsgrenen, samarbejdede i undersøgelsen, idet de tilkendegav deres støtte til EF-erhvervsgrenens klage.
Two suppliers of the Community industry, supplying two of the principal raw materials consumed by the Community industry, co-operated in the proceeding and expressed their support for the complaint lodged by the Community industry.
Disse to leverandører er repræsentative, idet de to nævnte råmaterialer udgør ca. 30 % af EF-erhvervsgrenens samlede indkøb af råmaterialer.
These two suppliers are representative as the above two raw materials accounted for around 30 % of the Community industry’s total procurement of raw materials.
Levering af råmaterialer og komponenter til EF-erhvervsgrenen til brug i fremstillingen af samme produkt repræsenterede ca. 2 % af hver af disse to virksomheders omsætning og 22 direkte arbejdspladser.
The supplies of raw materials and components to the Community industry with respect to the manufacturing of the like product represented on average around 2 % of these two companies’ respective total turnover and 22 direct jobs.
En indførelse af foranstaltninger vil gøre det muligt for de samarbejdsvillige leverandører at øge deres omsætning, rentabilitet og arbejdsstyrke.
The imposition of measures would allow the co-operating suppliers to increase their turnover, their profitability and their employment.
Hvidevareindustriens interesser
Interest of the white goods industry
Forskellige erhvervssammenslutninger, såsom Conseil Européen de la construction d’appareils domestiques (Den Europæiske Forening af Fabrikanter af Elektriske Husholdningsapparater — CECED) og Associazione Nazionale Industrie Apparecchi Domestici e Professionali (den nationale italienske brancheforening for producenter af husholdningsapparater og professionelt udstyr — ANIE) har skriftlig tilkendegivet, at de går ind for antidumpingforanstaltninger i forbindelse med denne procedure.
Various industrial federations (Conseil Européen de la construction d’appareils domestiques-CECED and Associazione Nazionale Industrie Apparecchi Domestici e Professionali-ANIE) have made written submissions in favour of anti-dumping measures in this particular proceeding.
Med henblik på at øge den offentlige opmærksomhed om det pristryk, dumpingimporten fra Republikken Korea udøver, har store hvidevareproducenter (Electrolux og Bosch-Siemens) til trods for, at de ikke producerer samme produkt i Fællesskabet, tilkendegivet deres støtte til klagen.
Likewise, in order to raise public awareness on the price-depressive effect brought about by dumped imports from the Republic of Korea, major manufacturers of white goods (Electrolux, Bosch-Siemens), although not manufacturers of the like product in the Community, expressed their support for the complaint lodged by the complainant.
Et af disse selskaber tilkendegav, at det alvorligt havde overvejet at starte sin egen produktion af det samme produkt i Fællesskabet, men denne plan var blevet udskudt på grund af dumpingimporten fra Republikken Korea.
One of these companies indicated that it had seriously considered starting its own production of the like product in the Community but this plan had been put on hold because of dumped imports originating in the Republic of Korea.
Det skal bemærkes, at både Electrolux og Bosch-Siemens importerede samme produkt fra USA i undersøgelsesperioden, og de var derfor også direkte berørt af de koreanske eksporterende producenters illoyale handelspraksis.
It should be noted that both Electrolux and Bosch-Siemens imported the like product from the USA during the IP and were therefore also directly affected by the unfair trade practice of the Korean exporting producers.
I begge de to nævnte selskaber kan der afsættes 30 til 50 arbejdspladser i Fællesskabet til import og videresalg af det samme produkt.
In each of the above two companies, around 30 to 50 jobs in the Community can be allocated to the import and resale activity of the like product.
Hvidevareindustrien som helhed støtter derfor indførelsen af antidumpingforanstaltninger.
The white goods industry at large would therefore support the imposition of anti-dumping measures.
Forretningsmæssigt forbundne EF-importørers interesser
Interest of related importers in the Community
Størstedelen af importen af den pågældende vare foretages gennem forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører, der er datterselskaber af de tre samarbejdsvillige koreanske producenter.
Most of the imports of the product concerned are made through related importers, which are subsidiaries of the three co-operating Korean producers.
Disse forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører modsætter sig antidumpingforanstaltninger.
These related importers oppose any anti-dumping measure.
I undersøgelsesperioden importerede de 26 samarbejdsvillige forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører ca. 96 % af Fællesskabets samlede import af den pågældende vare med oprindelse i det pågældende land.
During the IP, the 26 co-operating related importers imported around 96 % of the Community’s total import volume of the product concerned originating in the country concerned.
Import og videresalg af den pågældende vare udgør ca. 4 % af disse selskabers samlede omsætning.
The activity of import and resale of the product concerned accounts for around 4 % of these companies’ total turnover.
Ud af 4000 ansatte i disse forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører, er 170 personer direkte beskæftiget med handel og videresalg af den pågældende vare i Fællesskabet.
In terms of workforce, from a total of around 4000 persons employed by these related importers, 170 persons are directly involved in the trading and resale of the product concerned in the Community.
Hvad angår virkningerne af eventuelle foranstaltninger for disse importører, bør det først og fremmest bemærkes, at det af undersøgelsen fremgår, at Fællesskabets marked for den pågældende vare og samme vare er stærkt stigende.
As regards the possible effect of measures on these importers, it should be noted firstly that the investigation has evidenced that the market of the product concerned and like product in the Community is a fast growing market.
Desuden er størrelsen af den foreslåede told moderat, og da foranstaltningerne er baseret på dumpingmargener, vil de ikke til fulde reducere den betragtelige forskel mellem de koreanske eksportpriser og EF-erhvervsgrenens priser.
In addition, the level of duties proposed is moderate, and, as the measures are based on dumping margins, they will not fully close the substantial gap observed between Korean export prices and Community industry’s prices.
Med andre ord vil de koreanske eksportpriser, selv efter at de er korrigeret for konstateret dumping, stadig ligge under EF-erhvervsgrenens nuværende priser.
In other words, even when corrected for the dumping found, Korean export prices would still undercut current Community industry’s prices.
Som følge af de nævnte forhold er det ikke sikkert, at foranstaltningerne udløser et fald i de koreanske eksporterende producenters salgsmængde.
As a consequence of the foregoing considerations, it is not certain that the measures will trigger a decline in the sales volume of the Korean exporting producers.
Tværtimod er det sandsynligt, at der i betragtning af det stærkt voksende marked ville kunne noteres en udjævning af denne salgsmængde, hvilket ikke i betydeligt omfang burde påvirke de forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører.
To the contrary, in view of the fast growing market, one could likely observe a levelling off of that sales volume, which should not significantly affect the current situation of the related importers.
Importen af den pågældende vare udgør som påpeget i foregående betragtning under alle omstændigheder kun 4 % af disse selskabers omsætning.
Moreover, as pointed out in the previous recital, the import of the product concerned in any event only represents around 4 % of these companies’ turnover.
På dette grundlag konkluderer Kommissionen foreløbigt, at en indførelse af antidumpingforanstaltninger sandsynligvis ikke vil have alvorlige negative følger for forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører i Fællesskabet.
For these reasons, it is provisionally concluded that the imposition of anti-dumping measures is unlikely to have a serious negative effect on the situation of related importers in the Community.
Ikke forretningsmæssigt forbundne EF-importørers interesser
Interest of unrelated importers in the Community
I undersøgelsesperioden importerede den eneste samarbejdsvillige ikke forretningsmæssigt forbundne importør ca. 2 % af Fællesskabets samlede import af den pågældende vare med oprindelse i det pågældende land.
During the IP, the only co-operating unrelated importer imported around 2 % of the Community’s total import volume of the product concerned originating in the country concerned.
