For de resterende samarbejdsvillige brugere, der importerede mindre end 30 % af deres råmaterialer fra de pågældende lande, blev virkningerne anslået til højst 2,7 % ud fra den forudsætning, at prisstigningen ikke engang delvist ville blive videregivet til kunderne.
For the remaining cooperating users, importing less than 30 % of their raw material from the countries under consideration, the impact, under the assumption that the price increase would not even be partly passed on to their customers, was estimated at a maximum of 2,7 %.
Det skal imidlertid bemærkes, at undersøgelsen også bekræftede, at prisstigninger i Fællesskabet som følge af en indførelse af antidumpingforanstaltninger højst sandsynligt vil blive videregivet til den endelige kunde.
It should be noted, however, that the investigation also confirmed that price increases in the Community, as a consequence of the imposition of anti-dumping measures, will very likely be passed on to the final customer.
I denne forbindelse fandt Kommissionen, at det kraftige pristryk i Fællesskabet hovedsagelig skyldtes lavprisimporten fra Kina og Rusland.
In that respect, it was considered that the high price pressure in the Community was mainly due to the low-priced imports from the PRC and Russia.
Det forventes derfor, at prisen på PTFE i granulatform generelt vil stige i Fællesskabet, hvis der indføres antidumpingforanstaltninger.
It is therefore expected that with the imposition of anti-dumping measures, price levels of granular PTFE in the Community will generally increase.
Undersøgelsen viste også, at varer fra senere produktionsled til dels blev videresolgt gennem distributører, der havde store fortjenestmargener, hvilket tyder på, at disse distributører har mulighed for at kunne absorbere prisstigninger.
The investigation also revealed that downstream products were partly resold via distributors benefiting from high margins, which indicates that those distributors have the potential to absorb price increases.
Endelig konstateredes det, at der var meget lidt konkurrence på markedet for halvfabrikata og færdigvarer fremstillet af PTFE i granulatform fra tredjelande i undersøgelsesperioden, hvilket også tyder på, at prisstigninger sandsynligvis vil blive videregivet til de endelige kunder.
Finally, it was found that there was very little competition in the market of semi-finished and finished products produced from granular PTFE from third countries during the IP, which also indicates that price increases would likely be passed on to the final customers.
Markedet for halvfabrikata og færdigvarer er faktisk domineret af forarbejdningsvirksomheder fra Fællesskabet og ikke af importerede varer, der alle i lige høj grad vil være omfattet af antidumpingtolden.
Indeed, the semi-finished and finished products market is dominated by Community processors, rather than imported products, which will all be equally subject to the anti-dumping duties.
Det forventes derfor, at en prisstigning vil påvirke alle berørte EF-erhvervsdrivende ensartet, og der forventes intet pristryk fra importerede varer.
Therefore, it is expected that a price increase will equally affect all Community operators concerned and no price pressure is expected from imported products.
Det konkluderes derfor, at brugerne efter al sandsynlighed vil være i stand til at videregive en betydelig del af omkostningsstigningen til deres kunder, så antidumpingforanstaltningerne kan reelt forventes at få langt mindre betydning for deres rentabilitet end i det værst tænkelige tilfælde.
For these reasons, it is concluded that users will in all likelihood be able to pass on a considerable part of the cost increase to their customers, so that the estimated impact of anti-dumping measures on their profitability should, in reality, be much more limited than in the worst case scenario.
For det andet skal det bemærkes, at selv om prisstigningen ikke engang vil kunne videregives delvist (hvilket ikke er en realistisk antagelse), synes indvirkningen på de fire ovennævnte samarbejdsvillige brugeres rentabilitet ikke at have et uforholdsmæssigt omfang.
Secondly, it should be noted that, even if the price increase could not be partly passed on, which is not a realistic hypothesis, the impact on the profitability of the above four cooperating users would not appear to be disproportionate.
To af brugerne vil stadig være rentable, selv i den værst tænkelige situation.
Two of the users would still be profitable, even in that of worst case scenario.
En af de samarbejdsvillige producenter, for hvilken den anslåede virkning af eventuelle antidumpingforanstaltninger ville udgøre lidt over 1 %, havde allerede i undersøgelsesperioden haft betydelige tab, der ikke havde forbindelse med antidumpingforanstaltningerne.
One of the cooperating producers, for which the estimated impact of any anti-dumping measure would be slightly more than 1 %, already realised significant losses during the IP, which were not linked to the anti-dumping measures.
En prisstigning som følge af antidumpingtolden ville derfor ikke have en væsentlig indvirkning på denne virksomheds forretningsmæssige resultater.
Any price increase due to anti-dumping duties would therefore not have a considerable impact on its business performance.
Endelig havde den sidste bruger en betydelig bruttomargen, nemlig over 30 %, og det forventes derfor, at dette selskab i det mindste delvist selv kan absorbere enhver prisstigning, der følger af en indførelse af antidumpingtold.
Finally, the last user had a significant gross margin, i.e. over 30 % and it is therefore expected that it can itself, at least partly absorb any price increase due to the imposition of anti-dumping duties.
Som nævnt i betragtning 125 i denne forordning afspejler ovenstående undersøgelsesresultater situationen for brugere, der tegner sig for næsten 70 % af den samlede import fra de pågældende lande og omkring 40 % af forbruget i Fællesskabet.
As mentioned in recital 125 of this Regulation, the above findings reflect the situation of users representing almost 70 % of the total imports from the countries concerned and roughly 40 % of the Community consumption.
Undersøgelsen dækkede også forskellige typer af brugere, som f.eks. tilhørte forskellige industrisektorer, og som benyttede PTFE i granulatform enten direkte eller i halvfabrikata, idet nogle importerede store mængder fra de pågældende lande, mens andre igen kun indførte begrænsede mængder.
The investigation covered also different types of users, i.e. representing different industrial sectors, using granular PTFE either directly or in semi-finished products, some importing high quantities from the countries concerned, others only limited quantities.
Kommissionen fandt derfor, at de nævnte undersøgelsesresultater kunne betragtes som bredt repræsentative.
It was therefore considered that the above findings could be regarded as largely representative.
Det skal også bemærkes, at virkningerne af antidumpingtolden på visse brugere som nævnt i betragtning 147 i forordningen om midlertidig told er ubetydelige, fordi PTFE i granulatform kun tegner sig for en lille del af deres samlede omkostninger.
It should also be noted that, as mentioned in recital 147 of the provisional Regulation, the impact of the anti-dumping duties on certain users is negligible due to the fact that granular PTFE constitutes a rather low proportion of their overall costs.
Endvidere skal det bemærkes, at alle samarbejdsvillige brugere har et betydeligt salg til tredjelande.
Furthermore, it should be noted that all cooperating users have a significant business outside the Community.
Faktisk eksporteres 24,6 % af de varemængder, brugerne sælger, til lande uden for Fællesskabet.
Indeed, 24,6 % of the users’ sales volume is exported outside the Community.
Dette indebærer, at disse brugere kan benytte ordningen for aktiv forædling til at kræve tilbagebetaling af den antidumpingtold, der pålægges den importerede PTFE i granulatform, eller undgå at betale denne told.
This implies that the inward processing regime would allow these users to claim back or to avoid paying the anti-dumping duties levied on the imported granular PTFE.
Foranstaltningerne vil derfor ikke påvirke denne del af brugernes aktiviteter.
Consequently, this segment of the users’ business will not be affected by the measures.
Ved overvejelsen af de mulige virkninger af foranstaltninger på brugerne skal det endelig også bemærkes, at deres nuværende finansielle situation til dels skyldes den illoyale konkurrence som følge af dumpingimporten.
Finally, when considering the possible effects of measures on users, it should also be noted that their current financial situation is partly due to the unfair competition resulting from the existence of dumped imports.
Dette skal tages i betragtning, når de mulige negative virkninger af foranstaltninger på brugerne afvejes med de positive virkninger for andre interesserede parter, særlig EF-erhvervsgrenen.
This should be taken into account, when balancing the possible negative impact of measures on users against the positive effects on other interested parties, in particular the Community industry.
Af alle ovennævnte årsager konkluderes det, at foranstaltninger sandsynligvis ikke vil have uforholdsmæssige virkninger for brugerne.
For all the abovementioned reasons, it is concluded that the likely effect of measures on users would not be disproportionate.
Det konkluderes derfor, at en indførelse af endelig antidumpingtold ikke vil stride mod Fællesskabets interesser.
It was therefore concluded that the imposition of definitive anti-dumping duties would not be against the Community interest.
Import af halvfabrikata og færdigvarer
Imports of semi-finished and finished products
Visse brugere hævdede også, at de ville blive bragt i en situation med konkurrenceforvridning i forhold til producenter i de pågældende lande, der fremstiller halvfabrikata og færdigvarer, som ikke er omfattet af antidumpingtold, især fordi sådanne producenter ville omlægge deres eksport til Fællesskabet fra PTFE i granulatform til halvfabrikata og færdigvarer.
Certain users also claimed that they would be placed in a situation of competition distortion vis-à-vis producers in the countries concerned of semi-finished and finished products not subject to anti-dumping duties, in particular because such producers would shift their exports to the Community from granular PTFE to semi-finished and finished products.
Brugerne i Fællesskabet ville derfor være nødt til at flytte en del af deres aktiviteter uden for Det Europæiske Fællesskab for at have adgang til billigere råmaterialer.
As a consequence, users in the Community would need to relocate part of their business outside the European Community in order to have access to cheaper raw material.
For så vidt angår halvfabrikata og færdigvarer konstateredes det, at truslen om øget import fra de pågældende lande af billigere halvfærdige og færdige varer fra senere produktionstrin ikke er umiddelbar.
As regards the semi-finished and finished products, it was found that the threat of increasing imports of cheaper semi-finished and finished downstream products from the countries concerned is not imminent.
Det fremgår af de foreliggende oplysninger, dvs. navnlig den kendte kvalitetsforskel mellem importeret PTFE i granulatform fra de pågældende lande og den af EF-erhvervsgrenen fremstillede vare, at hverken russiske eller kinesiske producenter i øjeblikket er i stand til at fremstille hele det varesortiment, der produceres af brugerne i Fællesskabet, fordi de ikke har den nødvendige tekniske viden.
On the basis of the information available, i.e. in particular the known quality difference between the imported granular PTFE from the countries concerned and the one produced by the Community industry, neither Russian nor Chinese producers are currently able to produce the complete product range produced by the users in the Community, due to a lack of the necessary technical know-how.
En række parter bemærkede, at de russiske og kinesiske producenters knowhow og kvaliteten af deres varer konstant er stigende, og at en indførelse af endelig antidumpingtold vil fremskynde denne proces, fordi det vil skabe tilskyndelse til at flytte produktionen af halvfabrikata og færdigvarer til lande, hvor PTFE i granulatform kan fås billigere.
A number of parties observed that the know-how of Russian and Chinese producers as well as the quality of their products is constantly increasing and that the imposition of definitive anti-dumping duties would accelerate this process because it would create an incentive for shifting the production of semi-finished and finished products to these countries where the granular PTFE was available at cheaper prices.
Det bemærkes, at ifølge visse erhvervsdrivende synes importen af halvfabrikata fra de pågældende lande faktisk at være stigende.
It is noted that according to some operators in the market, imports of semi-finished products from the countries concerned indeed appeared to have an increasing trend.
Der foreligger imidlertid ingen beviser for, at kvaliteten af de importerede varer kan sammenlignes med kvaliteten af de varer, der fremstilles og sælges på fællesskabsmarkedet, og at der derfor virkelig vil være øget konkurrence og risiko for øget import af halvfabrikata og færdigvarer.
There is, however, no evidence available suggesting that the quality of the products imported is comparable to that of the products manufactured and sold on the Community market and that there would therefore indeed be a higher competition and a risk of increasing imports of semi-finished and finished products.
Endvidere var påstanden om, at det faktisk var overvejet at flytte forarbejdningsaktiviteterne ud fra Fællesskabet, eller at eksportørerne ville begynde at fremstille yderligt forarbejdede varer, ikke underbygget med tilstrækkelige beviser herfor.
Furthermore, the claim that the processing activities would actually consider to move outside the Community, or that exporters would shift into further processed products was not substantiated by sufficient evidence.
Det fremgik også af undersøgelsen, at nogle brugere for nylig havde foretaget investeringer i produktionen i Fællesskabet, hvilket betyder, at en udflytning af disse produktionsanlæg vil være meget usandsynlig.
The investigation also revealed that some users had only recently invested in their production process in the Community, which indicates that the relocation of those production facilities would be highly unlikely.
Det blev også fremført, at forarbejdningsindustrien beskæftiger langt flere ansatte end producenterne af PTFE i granulatform i Fællesskabet, og at disse arbejdspladser ville være i fare, hvis der blev indført antidumpingforanstaltninger.
It was also argued that the processing industry employs by far more people than the granular PTFE producers in the Community and that those jobs would be in danger should anti-dumping measures be imposed.
Det fremgik af undersøgelsen, at de tal for beskæftigelsen, som de pågældende brugere og importørsammenslutninger havde oplyst, var for store.
The investigation revealed that the information submitted by the users’/importers’ organisation concerned with regard to employment was largely overestimated.
Desuden ville kun en del af disse arbejdspladser være direkte truet af en indførelse af antidumpingtold.
In addition, only a proportion of those jobs would be directly threatened by the imposition of anti-dumping duties.
Det skal også bemærkes, at produktionen af PTFE i granulatform er mere kapitalintensiv, mens produktionen af halvfabrikata og færdigvarer er langt mere arbejdskraftintensiv.
It should also be noted that the production of granular PTFE is more capital-intensive, while the production of semi-finished or finished products is much more labour-intensive.
Det er derfor ikke passende at foretage en direkte sammenligning mellem antallet af arbejdspladser i PTFE-industrien og virksomheder i senere produktionsled.
Therefore, a direct comparison between the number of jobs of the granular PTFE industry and the downstream industry is not appropriate.
Det skal endvidere bemærkes, at nogle arbejdspladser hos de ikke-klagende fællesskabsproducenter og leverandørerne også ville være truet.
Furthermore, it should be noted that some jobs at the non-complainant Community producers and suppliers would also be threatened.
Som anført i ovenfor har de ikke-klagende fællesskabsproducenter allerede mistet betydelige markedsandele siden begyndelsen af den betragtede periode.
As indicated above, the non-complainant Community producers have already lost significant market share since the beginning of the period considered.
Endelig er en række brugere og derfor arbejdspladser i Fællesskabet også helt eller delvist afhængige af leverancer fra EF-erhvervsgrenen og fra de ikke-klagende fællesskabsproducenter.
Finally, a number of users and therefore jobs in the Community are also dependent fully or partly on the supply from the Community industry and from the non-complainant Community producers.
Hvis EF-erhvervsgrenen forsvandt, ville disse arbejdsplader derfor også være i fare.
Therefore, should the Community industry disappear these jobs would be equally in danger.
Forsyningsmangel
Shortage of supply
Flere parter gentog også, at en indførelse af endelig told ville føre til forsyningsmangel, fordi det ville forhindre de eksporterende producenter i Kina og Rusland i at eksportere deres varer til Fællesskabet, mens EF-erhvervsgrenen ikke havde tilstrækkelig kapacitet til at dække efterspørgselen i Fællesskabet.
A number of parties also reiterated that the imposition of definitive duties would lead to a shortage of supply because it would prevent the exporting producers from the PRC and Russia from exporting their products to the Community, while the Community industry would not have sufficient capacity to supply the Community demand.
Det blev også fremført, at selv hvis EF-erhvervsgrenen havde teoretisk kapacitet til at øge produktionen af PTFE, ville dette ikke være økonomisk interessant, da produktionen af PTFE i granulatform vil give en mindre fortjeneste end fremstilling af andre flourpolymerer.
It was also argued that even if the Community industry would have the theoretical capacity to increase its production of PTFE, this would economically not be interesting since the production of granular PTFE would generate less profit than the production of other fluoropolymers.
Det blev hævdet, at andre leverandører, såsom Japan og USA, ikke var et reelt alternativ, fordi priserne på importen fra disse lande fortsat er høj.
It was claimed that other sources, such as Japan and the USA would not be a valid alternative because import prices from these countries remain high.
Det blev endvidere påstået, at mangelen på fællesskabsmarkedet ville blive forværret af den forventede stigning i efterspørgselen på fællesskabsmarkedet.
It was further claimed that the shortage in the Community market would be aggravated by the expected increase in demand on the Community market.
På den anden side ville den i Fællesskabet fremstillede vare have for høje specifikationer til visse mindre avancerede anvendelsesformål og være for dyr at bruge til sådanne formål.
On the other hand, for certain low-end applications, the product produced in the Community would be over-specified and would be too expensive to be used in such applications.
Endelig blev det fremført, at der slet ikke ville blive solgt reagenskugler i Fællesskabet, mens præ-sintrede kvaliteter kun fremstilles i begrænsede mængder i Fællesskabet, således at brugerne ville være afhængige af importen fra de pågældende lande.
Finally, it was argued that reactor bead would not be sold at all in the Community, while pre-sintered grades are only produced in limited quantities in the Community, thus users would be dependent on imports from the countries under consideration.
Det skal erindres, at EF-erhvervsgrenen har en kapacitet på 9200 tons ved en kapacitetsudnyttelse på 80 %.
It should be recalled that the Community industry’s capacity is 9200 tons, at 80 % capacity utilisation.
Salgsmængden i undersøgelsesperioden udgjorde omkring 4845 tons.
The sales volume during the IP was about 4845 tons.
Dette indebærer, at de klagende producenter vil være i stand til at sælge yderligere 4355 tons af samme vare, hvilket svarer til 85 % af den samlede import fra de pågældende lande.
This implies that the complaining producers would be able to sell an additional 4355 tons of the like product, which is 85 % of the total imports of the countries concerned.
Argumentet om, at EF-erhvervsgrenen ikke vil benytte denne ledige kapacitet til at fremstille PTFE i granulatform på grund af den lave fortjeneste på salget af denne vare, måtte afvises.
The argument that the Community industry would not use this free capacity to produce granular PTFE, due to the low profit margins generated by the sales of this product, had to be rejected.
Det skal bemærkes, at dette argument ikke var underbygget med beviser.
It should be noted that this argument was not supported by any evidence.
Endvidere skyldtes den begrænsede rentabilitet af EF-erhvervsgrenens salg af PTFE i granulatform dumpingimporten, der i væsentlig grad underbød EF-erhvervsgrenens priser og derfor forårsagede et betydeligt pristryk.
Moreover, the low profitability generated by the Community industry’s sales of granular PTFE was due to the dumped imports which were significantly undercutting the Community industry’s prices and therefore causing substantial price pressure.
Med en indførelse af endelig antidumpingtold burde priserne på fællesskabsmarkedet derfor rette sig, hvilket også vil have positive følger for rentabiliteten.
Therefore, with the imposition of definitive anti-dumping duties prices on the Community market should recover which would also have a positive effect on the profitability.
For så vidt angår reagenskugler konstateredes det, at der kun blev importeret ganske små mængder i undersøgelsesperioden.
As far as reactor bead is concerned, it was found that only very limited quantities were imported during the IP.
Ligeledes var importen af præ-sintrede kvaliteter meget begrænset i undersøgelsesperioden, hvilket tyder på, at brugerne selv fremstiller disse kvaliteter.
Likewise, imports of pre-sintered grades were very limited during the IP, which implies that pre-sintered grades are made by the users themselves.
Det konstateredes, at mindst to fællesskabsproducenter kunne fremstille præ-sintrede kvaliteter.
It was found that at least two Community producers are able to produce pre-sintered grades.
Endelig solgte EF-erhvervsgrenen i undersøgelsesperioden som ovenfor nævnt også »off spec«-kvaliteter, der er sammenlignelige med de lavere kvaliteter af varen fra Kina og Rusland.
Finally, as mentioned above, the Community industry also sold ‘off-spec’ grades during the IP, which are comparable to the low quality grades from the PRC and Russia.
Der findes også andre forsyningskilder, såsom Japan og USA.
Other sources, such as Japan and USA are also available.
Argumentet om, at priserne på importvarer fra disse lande er højere end på varer fra de lande, der er omfattet af undersøgelsen, og at PTFE i granulatform fra Japan og USA derfor ikke ville være et reelt alternativ, kan ikke accepteres, fordi formålet med antidumpingtolden netop er at afhjælpe den skadelige dumping og genskabe redelige konkurrencevilkår.
The argument that import prices from these countries are higher than those from the countries under investigation and that granular PTFE from Japan and the USA would therefore not be a valid alternative cannot be accepted because the purpose of the anti-dumping duties is precisely to eliminate injurious dumping and restore fair conditions of competition.
Det skal yderligere erindres, at formålet med enhver antidumpingforanstaltning på ingen måde er at hindre varer fra de pågældende lande i at komme ind på fællesskabsmarkedet, men derimod at genskabe den situation med lige konkurrencevilkår, der er blevet forvredet af en uredelig handelspraksis.
It is further recalled that the purpose of any anti-dumping measure is by no means to stop access to the Community market for products from the countries concerned, but rather to restore a level playing field that had been distorted by unfair trade practices.
