natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
De samlede eksportmængder, som var angivet i samtlige samarbejdende eksporterende producenters stikprøvebesvarelser, blev sammenlignet med den samlede dumpingimport fra Kina ifølge Eurostats importstatistikker.
A comparison was made between the total export quantities indicated in the sampling replies received from all cooperating exporting producers and the total imports from the PRC as derived from the Eurostat import statistics.
Der kunne konstateres en samarbejdsprocent på 46.
The percentage of cooperation found was 46 %.
Det blev derfor anset for hensigtsmæssigt at fastsætte en dumpingmargen for de ikke-samarbejdende eksporterende producenter på et niveau, der lå over den højeste dumpingmargen, der blev fastsat for de samarbejdende eksporterende producenter.
It was, therefore, considered appropriate to set the dumping margin for the non-co-operating exporting producers at a level higher than the highest dumping margin established for the co-operating exporting producers.
De foreliggende oplysninger antyder da også, at det lave samarbejdsniveau kan skyldes, at de ikke-samarbejdende eksporterende producenter i Kina generelt solgte til højere dumpingpriser end de samarbejdende eksporterende producenter i UP.
Indeed, information available would suggest that the low level of co-operation could be due to the fact that the non-co-operating exporting producers in the PRC have generally been dumping0 at a higher level than any co-operating exporter during the IP.
Dumpingmargenen blev derfor fastlagt på et niveau, der svarer til den højeste dumpingmargen og skadesmargen, som blev fastlagt for repræsentative varetyper.
The dumping margin was therefore established at a level which corresponds to the highest dumping and injury margins established for representative product types.
På det grundlag blev dumpinggraden for hele landet foreløbigt fastsat til 66,1 % af cif-prisen, Fællesskabets grænse, ufortoldet.
On this basis, the country-wide level of dumping was provisionally established at 66,1 % of the CIF Community frontier price, duty unpaid.
Denne toldsats blev også anvendt på den eksporterende producent, for hvilken konklusionerne blev truffet på grundlag af de foreliggende faktiske oplysninger, jf. betragtning 51 ovenfor.
This duty rate was also applied to the exporting producer to which the findings were made on the basis of facts available as explained in recital (51) above.
Alle tilgængelige oplysninger, herunder oplysninger i klagen og data, som blev indhentet hos EF-producenterne før og efter indledningen af undersøgelsen, blev lagt til grund for at fastsætte den samlede EF-produktion.
All available information, including information provided in the complaint and data collected from Community producers before and after the initiation of the investigation was used in order to establish total Community production.
På baggrund af disse oplysninger blev det konkluderet, at EF-produktionen udgjorde ca. 390000 ton i UP.
Based on this information, it was found that Community production was around 390000 tonnes during the IP.
Dette omfatter eventuel produktion hos producenter, der ikke indgav oplysninger i forbindelse med proceduren, og producenter, der forholdt sig neutralt i forbindelse med indledningen af undersøgelsen.
This amount includes the possible production of producers which remained silent in the proceeding and producers which remained neutral in relation to the initiation of the investigation.
Disse producenter tegner sig for ca. 23 % af den samlede EF-produktion.
These producers account for around 23 % of total Community production.
Tallet omfatter desuden producenter, der var i mod indledningen af undersøgelsen.
It also includes producers which were opposed to the initiation of the investigation.
Disse producenter tegner sig for ca. 17% af EF-produktionen.
These producers account for around 17 % of Community production.
Undersøgelsen viste, at de EF-producenter, der støttede klagen og indvilligede i at samarbejde i forbindelse med undersøgelsen, tegnede sig for ca. 60 % af den samlede EF-produktion i UP.
The investigation showed that Community producers that support the complaint and agreed to cooperate in the investigation represented around 60 % of total Community production during the IP.
Disse producenter anses derfor for at udgøre EF-erhvervsgrenen, jf. grundforordningens artikel 4, stk. 1, og artikel 5, stk. 4.
These producers are therefore deemed to constitute the Community industry within the meaning of Article 4(1) and Article 5(4) of the basic Regulation.
Forbruget i Fællesskabet blev fastsat på grundlag af EF-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængder på fællesskabsmarkedet plus importen fra Kina og andre tredjelande ifølge tal fra Eurostat.
Community consumption was established on the basis of the sales volumes of the Community industry on the Community market, plus imports from the PRC and other third countries, according to Eurostat.
Forbruget fulgte følgende udvikling:
It developed as follows:
Kilde: Eurostat og spørgeskemabesvarelser.
Source: Eurostat and questionnaire replies.
Forbruget i Fællesskabet steg sammenlagt med 13 % i den betragtede periode.
Overall, Community consumption expanded by 13 % over the period considered.
Denne stigning blev afbrudt af et midlertidigt fald på 5 % mellem 2005 og 2006, hvorefter forbruget igen steg med 11% i UP.
This expansion was interrupted by a temporary decrease of 5 % between 2005 and 2006 after which consumption recovered and increased by 11 % during the IP.
Afmatningen i forbruget i 2006 skyldes hovedsageligt den markante stigning i indkøbspriserne for det vigtigste råmateriale til fremstilling af stearinlys, paraffin, jf. betragtning 122 nedenfor.
The downturn in consumption in 2006 may partly be attributed to the sharp increase in the purchase price of the main raw material used in the production of candles, paraffin, as explained in recital (122) below.
Som nævnt i betragtning 15 ovenfor viste undersøgelsen, at der Eurostats importstatistikker skelnes mellem tre overordnede KN-koder til tarifering af stearinlys:
As mentioned in recital (15) above, the investigation showed that Eurostat import statistics distinguish three main CN codes for declaring candles:
en kode, der hovedsageligt omfatter almindelige glatte og uparfumerede typer
a first code including mainly plain, un-perfumed basic candle types;
en kode, der omfatter forskellige standardtyper af stearinlys, ikke glatte og ikke kertelys, men også håndlavede stearinlys, sæsonbetingede stearinlys, sæt med stearinlys osv.
a second code including various types of standard candles not plain and not tapered but also handmade, seasonal candles, sets including candles, etc., and
en kode, der omfatter kertelys, natlamper til stearinlys og lignende.
a third code including tapers, night lights and like, etc.
Det blev konstateret, at visse eksporterende producenter i Kina, tariferede sæt med stearinlys og andre genstande såsom genstande af keramik, glas, stof eller andre lignende dekorationsgenstand under kategori 2 ovenfor.
It was observed that certain exporting producers in the PRC declared sets including candles but also other items such as ceramic, glass, cloth and other similar decoration items under the category 2 above.
Mængde, pris og markedsandel for dumpingimporten
Volume, price and market share of dumped imports
Når der anvendes stikprøver til at fastslå dumping, er det Kommissionens praksis at foretage yderligere undersøgelser af, hvorvidt der er bevis for, at samtlige virksomheder, der indgår i stikprøven, faktisk dumpede deres produkter på fællesskabsmarkedet i UP.
When using sampling to establish dumping it is the Commission practice to then examine whether there is positive evidence showing whether or not all the companies which were not sampled were effectively dumping their products on the Community market during the IP.
For at undersøge dette aspekt fastlagde Kommissionen de eksportpriser, der anvendtes af de samarbejdende eksporterende producenter, som ikke indgik i stikprøven, og de eksportpriser, der anvendtes af de ikke-samarbejdende eksportører på grundlag af Eurostats data, spørgeskemabesvarelserne fra de eksporterende producenter i Kina, der indgik i stikprøven, og besvarelserne fra alle de samarbejdende virksomheder i Kina.
To investigate this issue, the Commission established the export prices charged by the co-operating exporting producers not included in the sample and the export prices of the non-cooperating exporters on the basis of Eurostat data, the questionnaires responses of the sampled exporting producers in the PRC and the sampling forms provided by all the cooperating companies in the PRC.
Samtidig blev det konstateret, at niveauet af ikke-dumpede eksportpriser kunne fastlægges ved at lægge den gennemsnitlige dumpingmargen, der var fastlagt på grundlag af de eksporterende producenter i stikprøven, til de gennemsnitlige eksportpriser, der anvendes af de eksporterende producenter i stikprøven hos hvem man havde konstateret dumping.
In parallel, it was considered that by adding the average dumping margin found on the basis of the sampled exporting producers to the average export prices established for the sampled exporting producers found to be dumping, the level of non-dumped export prices would be set.
Eksportpriser for de eksporterende producenter, der ikke indgik i stikprøven, blev derefter sammenlignet med de ikke-dumpede eksportpriser.
The export prices established for the non-sampled exporting producers were then compared with the non-dumped export prices.
Prissammenligningen viste, at både i) de samarbejdende eksporterende producenter, som ikke indgik i stikprøven, og ii) de eksportører, der ikke samarbejdede, havde gennemsnitlige eksportpriser, der i alle tilfælde lå under de gennemsnitlige ikke-dumpede priser.
This price comparison showed that both (i) the cooperating exporting producers which were not included in the sample and (ii) the exporters which did not cooperate in the investigation had average export prices which were in all cases below the average non-dumped prices.
På dette grundlag blev det konstateret, at alle virksomheder, der ikke indgik i stikprøven, navnlig samarbejdende og ikke-samarbejdende, faktisk dumpede deres varer på fællesskabsmarkedet,
On this basis it was considered that all the companies which were not sampled, namely co-operating and non-cooperating, were effectively dumping their products on the Community market.
Det skal bemærkes, at en eksporterende producent i Kina, som indgik i stikprøven, ikke dumpede sine varer på fællesskabsmarkedet.
It should be noted that one exporting producer in the PRC included in the sample was not found to be dumping its products on the Community market.
Eksporten fra denne virksomhed skal derfor udelukkes fra analysen af udviklingen i dumpingimporten på fællesskabsmarkedet.
Accordingly, its exports should be excluded from the analysis concerning the development of dumped imports on the Community market.
For at undgå, at eventuelle følsomme virksomhedsoplysninger om denne producent blev offentliggjort, blev det af fortrolighedshensyn anset for hensigtsmæssigt ikke at fremlægge offentligt tilgængelig oplysninger såsom Eurostats data, med undtagelse af oplysningerne om den eksportør, der ikke dumpede sine varer på fællesskabsmarkedet.
However, in order to avoid any possibility of disclosing sensitive business data pertaining to the said producer, it was considered appropriate for confidentiality reasons not to present publicly available data, such as Eurostat, excluding the data of the exporter not found to be dumping on the Community market.
Den første tabel nedenfor viser således al import af stearinlys med oprindelse i Kina, og den anden tabel viser indekserede data vedrørende dumpingimport på fællesskabsmarkedet i den betragtede periode.
The first table below, therefore, comprises all imports of candles originating in the PRC and the second table shows the indexed data concerning the dumped imports on the Community market during the period considered.
Samlet dumpingimport fra Kina
All imports from PRC
Generelt steg importen fra Kina betydeligt fra 147530 ton i 2004 til 199112 ton i UP, dvs. 35 % eller mere end 51000 ton i den betragtede periode.
Overall, imports from the PRC significantly increased from 147530 tonnes in 2004 to 199112 tonnes in the IP, i.e. by 35 % or by more than 51000 tonnes over the period considered.
Stigningen i den dertil svarende markedsandel (+5,6 procentpoint) var mindre markant på grund af stigningen i forbruget i Fællesskabet.
The increase of the corresponding market share (+5,6 percentage points) was less pronounced because of the increase in Community consumption.
I tråd med bemærkningerne i betragtning 96 ovenfor viste undersøgelsen, at gennemsnitsprisen for import af den pågældende vare fra Kina og de observerede tendenser i et vist omfang var påvirket af, at visse varer, der deklareres som stearinlys, omfatter værdien af sæt med keramik, glas, karton eller andre emballagematerialer.
In line with the remarks made in recital (96) above, the investigation showed that the average price of imports from the PRC and the trends observed were influenced to a certain extent by the fact that certain products declared as candles include the value of sets with ceramic, glass, carton or other packaging materials.
Dumpingimport fra Kina
Dumped imports PRC
Mængden af dumpingimport fra Kina steg også markant med 36 % i den betragtede periode.
The dumped imports volumes from the PRC also increased significantly by 36 % over the period considered.
Stigningen i den dertil svarende markedsandel var mindre markant på grund af stigningen i forbruget i Fællesskabet.
The increase of the corresponding market share was less pronounced because of the increase in Community consumption.
Eurostats data viser, at salgsmængden af dumpingimporten og dermed markedsandelen især fandt sted under den første KN-kode, der omfatter EF-erhvervsgrenens kerneprodukt, og som udgør en stor andel af eksporten fra Kina.
Eurostat data shows that the sales volume of dumped imports and thus market share were mainly gained in the first CN code, which includes the core product of the Community industry, and which represents a large share of exports from the PRC.
Desuden blev det konstateret, at importen praktisk taget ikke tabte markedsandel til trods for en generel afmatning i forbruget i perioden mellem 2005 og 2006.
In addition, it was found that despite a general downturn in consumption in the period between 2005 and 2006, the imports did not lose practically any share of the market they were holding.
Gennemsnitspriserne for dumpingimport fra Kina viste en stigning på 10 % i den betragtede periode, men priserne var stadig voldsomt dumpede i UP, nemlig 38 % i gennemsnit.
Average prices for dumped imports from the PRC showed an increase of 10 % during the period considered but were still made at significant dumping, namely 38 % on average, during the IP.
Gennemsnitsprisen for dumpingimporten faldt med over 3 % mellem 2006 og UP og underbød, jf. forklaringen nedenfor, EF-erhvervsgrenens priser i den periode.
The average price of dumped imports decreased by over 3 % between 2006 and the IP and, as explained below, was undercutting the Community industry prices in that period.
For at kunne undersøge prisunderbuddet blev de vejede gennemsnitlige salgspriser for hver varetype, som EF-erhvervsgrenen solgte til ikke-forretningsmæssigt forbundne kunder på fællesskabsmarkedet, justeret til ab fabrik, sammenlignet med de tilsvarende vejede gennemsnitlige priser for den pågældende import til den første uafhængige kunde, der var fastsat på cif-basis med en passende justering for told og omkostninger efter importen.
For the purposes of analysing price undercutting, the weighted average sales prices per product type of the Community industry to unrelated customers on the Community market, adjusted to an ex-works level, were compared to the corresponding weighted average prices of the imports concerned to the first independent customer, established on a CIF basis with an appropriate adjustment for post-importation costs.
Ved anvendelse af denne metode viste nævnte prisforskel, udtrykt i procent af EF-erhvervsgrenens vejede gennemsnitspris (ab fabrik), en prisunderbudsmargen på gennemsnitligt 9 %.
Based on the above methodology, the difference between the above mentioned prices, expressed as a percentage of the Community industry's weighted average price (ex-works), showed a price undercutting margin of 9 % on average.
Det blev endvidere konstateret, at underbuddet af EF-erhvervsgrenens kerneprodukt var højere sammenlignet med det beregnede underbud for de andre typer stearinlys, nemlig 12,1 %.
It was also found that the undercutting of the core product of the Community industry was higher compared to that calculated for the other types of candles, namely 12,1 %.
Dette viser yderligere det pristryk, lavprisdumpingimporten udøvede på EF-erhvervsgrenen i UP.
This further demonstrates the price pressure exerted by low-priced dumped imports during the IP on the Community industry.
I overensstemmelse med grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 5, omfattede undersøgelsen af dumpingimportens virkninger for EF-erhvervsgrenen en vurdering af alle relevante økonomiske faktorer i forbindelse med evalueringen af EF-erhvervsgrenens situation i perioden fra 2004 til udgangen af UP.
In accordance with Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation, the examination of the impact of the dumped imports on the Community industry included an evaluation of all economic indicators relevant to the assessment of the state of the Community industry from 2004 to the end of the IP.
I betragtning af det store antal EF-producenter, der støtter klagen, blev det, jf. betragtning 31 ovenfor, besluttet at anvende stikprøver i forbindelse med skadesundersøgelsen.
As mentioned in recital (31) above, in view of the large number of producers supporting the complaint, it was decided to apply sampling for the purpose of the injury investigation.
Det blev oprindeligt bestemt at udtage otte producenter eller grupper af producenter til stikprøven på grundlag af kriteriet om den største produktion, jf. grundforordningens artikel 17, stk. 1.
It was originally considered to include eight producers or groups of producers in the sample on the basis of the largest production criterion as foreseen in Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation.
En EF-producent, som havde voldsomme økonomiske vanskeligheder, og to andre EF-producenter, som ganske vist støttede klagen, kunne ikke samarbejde fuldt ud i forbindelse med undersøgelsen.
However, one Community producer which was encountering serious financial difficulties and two other Community producers, although fully supporting the complaint, could not offer full cooperation in the investigation.
De resterende fem producenter, eller grupper af producenter, havde i UP en produktion svarende til 44 % af den samlede produktion i de samarbejdende virksomheder.
The remaining five producers, or groups of producers had during the IP a production volume representing 44 % of the total production of the co-operating companies.
De blev derfor anset for at være repræsentative med henblik på stikprøven.
Thus, they were deemed to be representative for the purpose of the sample.
Når der anvendes stikprøver som led i skadesundersøgelsen, er det Kommissionens praksis at fastlægge skadesindikatorerne dels på grundlag af de producenter, der indgår i stikprøven, og dels på grundlag af data fra samtlige producenter, der indgår i definitionen af EF-erhvervsgrenen.
When applying sampling in the context of the injury investigation, it is the practice of the Commission to establish the injury indicators partly on the basis of the sampled producers and partly on the basis of data pertaining to all the producers included in the definition of the Community industry.
De økonomiske faktorer og indekser vedrørende virksomhedsresultater, såsom priser, lønninger, rentabilitet, likviditet, investeringer og investeringsafkast, og evnen til at rejse kapital blev fastlagt på grundlag af informationer fra virksomhederne i stikprøven.
The economic factors and indices related to company performance, such as prices, wages, profitability, cash flow, investment and return on investment, and the ability to raise capital, have been established on the basis of information obtained from the sampled companies.
Mængdefaktorerne såsom produktion, produktionskapacitet og kapacitetsudnyttelse, produktivitet, salgsmængder og markedsandel, lagerbeholdninger, beskæftigelse, vækst og omfanget af dumpingmargenen blev fastlagt til niveauet for EF-erhvervsgrenen som helhed.
The volume factors such as production, production capacity and capacity utilisation, productivity, sales volume and market share, inventories, employment, growth, and magnitude of the dumping margin have been established at the level of the Community industry as a whole.

Undersøgelsen viste, at en af EF-erhvervsgrenens kernevarer er fyrfadslys.
The investigation showed that one of the core products of the Community industry is the so-called tea light candle.
Fyrfadslys udgør ca. 50 % af produktionen i de virksomheder, som indgår i definitionen af EF-erhvervsgrenen.
It represents around 50 % of the production of the producers included in the definition of the Community industry.
Som vist i ovenstående tabel steg EF-erhvervsgrenens produktion med 2 % i løbet af den betragtede periode.
As shown in the above table, the production of the Community industry increased slightly by 2 % over the period considered.
Faldet på 8 % i produktionen mellem 2005 og 2006 blev indhentet i UP i takt med en stigning i forbruget i Fællesskabet på 11 %.
The 8 % decrease in production observed between 2005 and 2006 was recovered during the IP in line with an increase of Community consumption by 11 %.
EF-erhvervsgrenen øgede støt sin produktionskapacitet til ca. 300000 ton i UP, men udnyttelsen af den disponible kapacitet var lavere i UP.
The Community industry steadily increased its production capacity to around 300000 tonnes during the IP but the utilisation of the available capacity was lower during the IP.
Da produktionen i dette erhverv er sæsonbetonet, kan der ikke opnås fuld udnyttelse af kapaciteten i løbet af året, men kapacitetsudnyttelsen på 76 % i løbet af UP var relativt lav sammenlignet med 2004 og 2005.
Given that production is rather seasonal in the industry, full utilisation of capacity cannot be achieved over the year, however, the capacity utilisation of 76 % achieved during the IP was relatively low compared to 2004 and 2005 levels.
EF-erhvervsgrenens salg af den pågældende vare til uafhængige kunder, navnlig store detailhandlere og distributører, på fællesskabsmarkedet steg med 3 % i løbet af UP sammenlignet med 2004.
Sales volume of the product concerned by the Community industry to independent customers, mainly large retailers and distributors, on the Community market increased by 3 % during the IP compared to 2004.
I tråd med det forholdsvis lave forbrug i 2006 faldt salgsmængderne med 5 % mellem 2005 og 2006, men steg igen i løbet af UP i takt med det stigende forbrug i Fællesskabet.
In line with the relatively low level of consumption in 2006 sales volume decreased by 5 % between 2005 and in 2006 but recovered during the IP in line with the recovery of Community consumption.
Det blev dog konstateret, at EF-erhvervsgrenen ikke helt kunne følge med udviklingen i forbruget i Fællesskabet, som steg med 13 % i den betragtede periode og især i perioden 2005-2006, hvor markedet steg med 11 %.
However, it was observed that the Community industry could not fully follow the expansion of Community consumption by 13 % over the period considered and in particular in the period 2005-2006 when the market grew by 11 %.
Derfor faldt EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel med 3,7 procentpoint fra 39,8 % til 36,1 % i løbet af UP.
As a consequence its market share decreased by 3,7 percentage point, from 39,8 % to 36,1 % during the IP.
