På baggrund af stagnerende salg og faldende produktionsmængder faldt udnyttelsen af den kapacitet, der var til rådighed, dog fra 91 % i 2005 til 65 % i UP.
However, in view of stagnating sales and decreasing production volumes, the utilisation of the available capacity decreased from 91 % in 2005 to 65 % in the IP.
Det største fald skete i perioden fra 2007 til undersøgelsesperioden.
The main decrease occurred in the period between 2007 and the IP.
Salgstallene i tabellen nedenfor vedrører den mængde, der blev solgt til den første uafhængige kunde på EU-markedet.
The sales figures in the table below relate to the volume sold to the first independent customer on the Union market.
Mens EU-forbruget steg med 20 % i 2005 og 2007, steg EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængde af den pågældende vare til uafhængige kunder på EU-markedet med kun 4 %.
While Union consumption grew by 20 % during 2005 and 2007, the sales volume of the product concerned by the Union industry to independent customers on the Union market increased by only 4 %.
Det betyder, at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke kunne drage fordel af det øgede forbrug i den periode.
This means that the Union industry could not benefit from the increased consumption in that period.
Dertil kommer, at i resten af den betragtede periode faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængde sågar mere, nemlig 31 %, hvorimod EU-forbruget faldt med 22 %.
Moreover, in the remainder of the period considered, whereas Union consumption decreased by 22 % the sales volume of the Union industry decreased even more, by 31 %.
Følgelig faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængde konstant og markant, og tabet af markedsandele var så højt som 11,9 procentpoint i den betragtede periode.
Consequently the Union industry’s sales volume decreased continuously and significantly and the loss in market share was as high as 11,9 percentage points during the period considered.
EU-erhvervsgrenens gennemsnitlige enhedssalgspriser
Average unit prices of the Union industry
EU-erhvervsgrenens gennemsnitlige priser, ab fabrik, ved salg til ikke-forretningsmæssigt forbundne kunder på EU-markedet faldt med 9 % i den betragtede periode.
Average ex-works sales prices of the Union industry to unrelated customers on the Union market decreased by 9 % over the period considered.
Det største fald indtraf mellem 2007 og UP og var sammenfaldende med dumpingimporten fra Kina til lave priser.
The main decrease occurred between 2007 and the IP, thus coinciding with the surge in the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC.
Resultatet var, at EU-erhvervsgrenen var nødt til at sænke sine salgspriser især i UP til trods for stigningen i råmaterialepriserne.
As a consequence, despite the increase in raw material prices the Union industry had to decrease its sales prices in particular during the IP.
Derfor lå EU-erhvervsgrenens salgspriser betydeligt under erhvervsgrenens omkostninger i UP.
Consequently, the sales prices of the Union industry were significantly below their costs during the IP.
Lagrene udgjorde ca. 15 % af produktionsmængden i UP.
Stocks represented around 15 % of the production volume in the IP.
EU-erhvervsgrenen formindskede sine lagre med 9 % i den betragtede periode, navnlig mellem 2007 og UP.
The Union industry decreased its stock levels by 9 % during the period considered, in particular between 2007 and the IP.
Imidlertid skal dette fald ses i lyset af det lavere aktivitetsniveau, der skyldtes en indskrænkning af EU-erhvervsgrenen.
However, this decrease in stocks should be seen in light of the lower level of activity following the downsizing of the Union industry.
Lagre (ton)
Stocks (tonnes)
Produktivitet (enhed pr. FTÆ)
Productivity (unit/FTE)
Som følge af en indskrænkning af EU-erhvervsgrenen blev antallet af beskæftigede reduceret væsentligt, dvs. med 23 % i den betragtede periode.
Due to the downsizing activities of the Union industry, the number of employees was reduced substantially by 23 % during the period considered.
Faldet i produktiviteten skal ses i lyset af de generelle indskrænkninger, hvor faldet i antallet af beskæftigede følger faldet i produktionen, men først senere.
The decrease in the productivity should be seen in light of the general nature of downsizing activities, where the decrease in the number of employees follows the drop in production only after a certain delay.
For så vidt angår arbejdskraftomkostningerne, steg de kun lidt med 6 % i den betragtede periode.
As regards labour costs, they increase slightly by 6 % over the period considered.
Likviditet (000 EUR)
Cash flow (EUR thousand)
Investeringer (000 EUR)
Investments (EUR thousand)
EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet blev beregnet som nettooverskuddet før skat ved salg af samme vare og udtrykt i procent af omsætningen i forbindelse med dette salg.
Profitability of the Union industry was established by expressing the pre-tax net profit of the sales of the like product as a percentage of the turnover of these sales.
I den betragtede periode faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet markant fra en fortjeneste på 3 % i 2005 til et tab på 13,3 % i UP.
Over the period considered the profitability of the Union industry decreased dramatically from a profit of 3 % in 2005 to a loss of 13,3 % in the IP.
Til trods for den omstændighed, at EU-forbruget udviste en stigende tendens mellem 2005 og 2007 kunne EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke drage fordel af denne gunstige udvikling som følge af dumpingimporten fra Kina til lave priser.
Despite the fact that Union consumption was showing an increasing trend between 2005 and 2007, the Union industry could not benefit from this favourable development due to the low priced dumped imports from the PRC.
Tendensen, som fremgår af likviditeten, der er erhvervsgrenens evne til at selvfinansiere sine aktiviteter, afspejler i stort omfang udviklingen i rentabiliteten.
The trend shown by the cash flow, which is the ability of the industry to self-finance its activities, reflects to a large extent the evolution of profitability.
Følgelig udviser likviditeten en væsentlig nedgang i den betragtede periode.
Consequently, the cash flow shows a substantial decrease during the period considered.
Det samme kan siges om investeringsafkastet, som udviste en tilsvarende negativ udvikling i tråd med de negative resultater, som EU-erhvervsgrenen opnåede i den betragtede periode.
The same comments can be made about the return on investments, which showed a similar negative development in line with the negative results achieved by the Union industry over the period considered.
Af ovenstående fremgår det, at EU-erhvervsgrenens evne til at investere blev begrænset, da likviditeten forværredes markant i den betragtede periode.
Following the above, the ability of the Union industry to invest became limited as the cash flow significantly deteriorated during the period considered.
Derfor faldt investeringerne med 89 % i den betragtede periode.
As a consequence, the investments dropped by 89 % during the period considered.
EU-forbruget steg med 20 % mellem 2005 og 2007, men det lykkedes kun EU-erhvervsgrenen at øge sin salgsmængde til EU-markedet med 4 %, hvilket betød, at den ikke kunne drage fordel af stigningen i EU-forbruget.
While the Union consumption increased by 20 % between 2005 and 2007, the Union industry managed to increase its sales volume on the Union market by a mere 4 %, thus preventing it from taking advantage of the expansion in Union consumption.
Når man ser på udviklingen i den betragtede periode, var faldet på 29 % i EU-erhvervsgrenens salgsmængde langt mere udtalt end faldet på 7 % i EU-forbruget.
When looking at the development over the period considered, the drop of 29 % in the sales volume of the Union industry was far more pronounced than the decrease of 7 % in Union consumption.
Følgelig faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel også markant med 12 procentpoint i samme periode.
As a consequence, the market share of the Union industry also decreased significantly by 12 percentage points during the same period.
Dumpingmargenerne for Kina, som fremgår af afsnittet om dumping ovenfor, ligger over bagatelgrænsen.
The dumping margins for the PRC, specified above in the dumping section, are above de minimis.
Det fremgår af undersøgelsen, at de fleste skadesindikatorer som f.eks. produktion (– 36 %), kapacitetsudnyttelse (– 28 %), salgsmængde til ikke-forretningsmæssigt forbundne kunder på EU-markedet (– 29 %), markedsandel (– 12 procentpoint) og produktivitet (– 16 %) forværredes i den betragtede periode.
The investigation has shown that most of the injury indicators such as production (– 36 %), capacity utilisation (– 28 %), sales volume to unrelated customers on the Union market (– 29 %), market share (– 12 percentage points) and productivity (– 16 %) deteriorated during the period considered.
Desuden blev skadesindikatorerne vedrørende EU-erhvervsgrenens finansielle resultater, som f.eks. likviditet (– 241 %) og rentabilitet (– 16,3 procentpoint), påvirket i alvorlig grad.
In addition, the injury indicators related to the financial performance of the Union industry such as cash flow (– 241 %) and profitability (– 16,3 percentage points) were seriously affected.
Dette betyder, at EU-erhvervsgrenens evne til at rejse kapital også blev undermineret, navnlig i UP.
This means that the ability of the Union industry to raise capital was also undermined in particular during the IP.
Det blev konstateret, at de største tab skete i perioden mellem 2008 og UP, da dumpingimporten fra Kina til trods for et kraftigt fald i EU-forbruget, forblev betydelig på EU-markedet og underbød EU-erhvervsgrenens priser med mere end 24 % i UP.
It was found that the main losses occurred in the period between 2008 and the IP when, despite a significant decrease in the Union consumption, the dumped imports from the PRC remained present in high volumes in the Union market, undercutting the prices of the Union industry by over 24 % in the IP.
Det fremgik også af undersøgelsen, at EU-erhvervsgrenens produktionsomkostninger nåede sit højeste niveau i 2008 hovedsagelig som følge af en kraftig stigning i priserne på det vigtigste råmateriale.
The investigation also showed that the cost of production of the Union industry reached its highest level in 2008, mainly due to the sharp increase in the prices of the main raw material.
Det lykkedes EU-erhvervsgrenen i UP at opretholde og kontrollere sine produktionsomkostninger gennem rationaliseringsbestræbelser og som følge af faldet i priserne på PET-spåner, der hovedsageligt indtraf i anden halvdel af UP.
During the IP, the Union industry managed to maintain and control its cost of production with rationalisation efforts and due to the decrease of PET prices which mainly occurred in the second half of the IP.
Men i lyset af det kraftige prisunderbud, som de kinesiske eksportører anvendte i UP, var EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke i stand til at øge sine salgspriser til et niveau, som ville have dækket omkostningerne.
However, in view of the significant price undercutting practiced by the Chinese exporters during the IP, the Union industry was not in a position to increase its sales prices to a level that would have covered its costs.
Dette førte til en betydelig forværring af den finansielle situation i UP.
This led to a significant deterioration in its financial situation during the IP.
I lyset af ovenstående blev det konkluderet, at EU-erhvervsgrenen har lidt væsentlig skade, jf. grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 5.
In the light of the foregoing, it was concluded that the Union industry suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
I henhold til grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6 og 7, blev det undersøgt, om dumpingimporten af den pågældende vare med oprindelse i Kina forvoldte EU-erhvervsgrenen skade i et omfang, der kunne betegnes som væsentligt.
In accordance with Article 3(6) and 3(7) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether the dumped imports of the product concerned originating in the PRC caused injury to the Union industry to a degree that enables it to be classified as material.
Andre kendte faktorer end dumpingimporten, der samtidig kunne være skadevoldende for EU-erhvervsgrenen, blev også undersøgt for at sikre, at en eventuel skade forårsaget af disse andre faktorer ikke blev tilskrevet dumpingimporten.
Known factors other than the dumped imports, which could at the same time be injuring the Union industry, were also examined to ensure that possible injury caused by these other factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Det fremgik af undersøgelsen, at dumpingimporten fra Kina steg dramatisk i den betragtede periode, og at dens markedsandel på EU-markedet mellem 2005 og UP mere end syvdobledes.
The investigation showed that dumped imports from the PRC increased dramatically over the period considered, increasing their share of the Union market by more than seven times between 2005 and the IP.
Det blev også konstateret, at i perioden mellem 2008 og UP, da EU-forbruget faldt med ca. 15 %, forblev mængden af dumpingimport fra Kina høj, og markedsandelen steg sågar med 15 %.
It was also found that in the period between 2008 and the IP when the Union consumption decreased by about 15 %, the volume of the dumped imports from the PRC remained high and even increased their market share by 15 %.
I den betragtede periode oplevede EU-erhvervsgrenen et markant fald på 29 % i dens salgsmængde, og markedsandelen faldt således fra 51,1 % til 39,2 %, dvs. næsten 12 procentpoint.
During the period considered, the Union industry faced a significant drop of 29 % in their sales volume and consequently lost market share from 51,1 % to 39,2 %, almost 12 percentage points.
I perioden mellem 2008 og UP faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel med to procentpoint, hvorimod den kinesiske dumpingimport steg til trods for den faldende efterspørgsel på EU-markedet.
In the period between 2008 and the IP, the market share of the Union industry dropped by two percentage points whereas that of the dumped Chinese imports increased, despite the declining demand on the Union market.
For så vidt angår priserne på dumpingimport faldt de med 39 % i den betragtede periode og underbød i alvorlig grad EU-erhvervsgrenens priser på EU-markedet.
As regards prices of the dumped imports, they decreased by 39 % during the period considered and were significantly undercutting the prices charged by the Union industry on the Union market.
EU-erhvervsgrenen blev således forhindret i at øge sine priser for at dække stigningen i råmaterialepriserne.
Consequently, the Union industry was prevented from increasing its prices to cover the increase in raw material prices.
Som følge heraf faldt EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet for salg på EU-markedet, jf. betragtning 122, fra en fortjeneste på 3 % i 2005 til et tab på 13,3 % i UP.
As a result, the profitability of the Union industry’s sales on the Union market decreased, as explained above in recital 122, from a profit of 3 % in 2005 to a loss of 13,3 % in the IP.
Det fremgik også af undersøgelsen, at de stigende mængder dumpingimport fra Kina til lave priser generelt havde en negativ indvirkning på markedet i form af pristryk.
The investigation also showed that the increasing volumes of low-priced dumped imports from the PRC had a negative impact on the market overall by depressing the prices.
Det konstante pres, som blev udøvet af dumpingimport fra Kina til lave priser på EU-markedet, blev derfor ikke anset for at have forhindret EU-erhvervsgrenen i at tilpasse sine salgspriser til de øgede råmaterialeomkostninger, navnlig i 2008, hvor prisen på PET-spåner nåede sit højdepunkt.
It is therefore considered that the continued pressure exercised by the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC on the Union market did not allow the Union industry to adapt its sales prices to the increased raw material costs, in particular in 2008, when PET prices peaked.
Det forklarede, at EU-erhvervsgrenen tabte markedsandele og oplevede fald i rentabiliteten.
This explained the loss in market share and the loss in profitability of the Union industry.
I lyset af ovenstående blev det derfor foreløbigt konkluderet, at den kraftige stigning i dumpingimport fra Kina til lave priser havde en betydelig negativ indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens økonomiske situation.
In view of the above it was provisionally concluded that the surge of the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC had a considerable negative impact on the economic situation of the Union industry.
Efterspørgslens udvikling på EU-markedet
Development of the demand on the Union market
Som nævnt i betragtning 100 steg EU-forbruget af garn med høj styrke først mellem 2005 og 2007, hvorefter det faldt i 2008 og i UP.
As mentioned in recital 100 above, the Union consumption of HTY first increased between 2005 and 2007, after which it decreased in 2008 and the IP.
I den betragtede periode mistede EU-erhvervsgrenen en betydelig markedsandel.
During the period considered, the Union industry lost a significant part of their market share.
Selv om det ikke kan udelukkes, at denne negative udvikling i EU-forbruget mellem 2008 og UP kan have haft en negativ indvirkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, er det værd at bemærke, at det lykkedes de kinesiske eksportører at øge deres markedsandel samtidigt.
Although it cannot be excluded that this negative evolution of the Union consumption between 2008 and the IP may have had a negative impact on the situation of the Union industry, it is noteworthy that the Chinese exporters managed at the same time to increase their market share.
Følgelig er det opfattelsen, at forværringen af EU-erhvervsgrenens økonomiske situation ikke kan forklares ved den faldende efterspørgsel, men hovedsageligt skyldes den kraftige stigning i dumpingimporten fra Kina og det prisunderbud, som de kinesiske eksportører praktiserede.
Accordingly, it is considered that the deterioration of the economic situation of the Union industry cannot be explained by the decreased demand but is mainly caused by the surge in the dumped imports from the PRC and the undercutting practised by the Chinese exporters.
Råmaterialepriser
Prices of raw material
Priserne på råmaterialerne, hovedsageligt PET-spåner, er steget betydeligt mellem 2005 og 2008, hvorefter de faldt i anden halvdel af UP og nåede et niveau ved udgangen af UP, der svarede til niveauet i 2005.
Prices of raw material, mainly PET chips, have increased significantly between 2005 and 2008 after which they decreased during the second half of the IP and reached a level equal to the year 2005 by the end of the IP.
Undersøgelsen bekræftede, at EU-erhvervsgrenens produktionsomkostninger i forbindelse med produktionen af garn med høj styrke fulgte den samme tendens som udviklingen i råmaterialepriserne, og generelt steg med 6 % i den betragtede periode.
The investigation confirmed that the cost of production of the Union industry to produce HTY followed the same trend as the evolution of the raw material prices, and overall increased by 6 % during the period considered.
På et marked med effektive handelsvilkår, dvs. uden skadevoldende dumping, kan det dog forventes, at priserne justeres regelmæssigt for at afspejle situationen med hensyn til de forskellige elementer i produktionsomkostningerne.
However, in a market governed by effective trade conditions, namely in the absence of injurious dumping, it could be expected that prices are regularly adapted to reflect the development of the various components of the cost of production.
Faktisk var EU-erhvervsgrenen tvunget til at holde sine salgspriser lave for at kunne konkurrere med dumpingimport fra Kina til lave priser, hvilket medførte et markant fald i dens rentabilitet.
Indeed, the Union industry was forced to keep its sales prices low in order to compete against the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC, which led to a significant drop in its profitability.
Følgelig er den foreløbige konklusion, at de kinesiske eksportørers prisunderbud har presset priserne på EU-markedet og forhindret EU-erhvervsgrenen i at øge sine salgspriser for at dække sine omkostninger.
Accordingly, it is provisionally concluded that the undercutting practiced by the Chinese exporters depressed the prices on the Union market and prevented the Union industry from increasing its sales prices to cover its costs.
EU-erhvervsgrenens produktion til det bundne marked
Captive production of the Union industry
Det fremgik af undersøgelsen, at kun én EU-producent, som samarbejdede i forbindelse med undersøgelsen, var vertikalt integreret, og at produktionen til det bundne marked blev anvendt til en yderligere forarbejdning til varer med værditilvækst i det efterfølgende produktionsforløb.
The investigation showed that only one Union producer which cooperated with the investigation was vertically integrated and that the captive production was used for further processing into value added products in the downstream industry.
I forbindelse med undersøgelsen blev der ikke konstateret produktionsproblemer, der hænger sammen med disse varer i det efterfølgende produktionsforløb.
The investigation did not point to any production problem linked to these downstream products.
Produktionen til det bundne marked forblev faktisk stabil i den betragtede periode og tegnede sig for ca. 7 % af produktionsmængden.
Indeed, the captive use remained stable over the period considered and represented around 7 % of the production volume.
På dette grundlag var det opfattelsen, at EU-erhvervsgrenens produktion til det bundne marked ikke bidrog til forværringen af dens finansielle situation, navnlig ikke i UP.
On that basis, it was considered that the captive production of the Union industry did not contribute to the deterioration of its financial situation, in particular during the IP.
Selv om analysen af skade og årsagssammenhæng fokuserede på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation på EU-markedet, blev dens eksportresultater undersøgt som en potentiel anden faktor, der eventuelt kan forklare den konstaterede skade.
Although the analysis of injury and causation focused on the situation of the Union industry in the Union market, its export performance was examined as a potential other factor that may explain the injury found.
Analysen viste, at EU-erhvervsgrenens eksportsalg til ikke-forretningsmæssigt forbundne parter forblev beskedent (ca. 3 %) i den betragtede periode.
The analysis showed that the export sales to unrelated parties made by the Union industry remained modest (around 3 %) during the period considered.
Faldet i eksportsalget — fra ca. 18000 ton i 2005 til ca. 7000 ton i UP — kan forklares med faldet i produktionen i samme periode.
The decrease in export sales volume, from around 18000 tonnes in 2005 to around 7000 tonnes during the IP, may be explained by the decrease in production during the same period.
Eksportprisen var dog højere end den pris, som EU-erhvervsgrenen krævede af sine kunder på EU-markedet.
However, the export price was higher than the price that the Union industry was charging to its customers on the Union market.
Det blev således konkluderet, at faldet i eksportmængden ikke kan forklare omfanget af den skade, som EU-erhvervsgrenen led, herunder især det betydelige fald i rentabiliteten i UP.
Hence, it was considered that the decrease in export volume cannot explain the level of injury suffered by the Union industry and in particular the significant drop in profitability during the IP.
Udviklingen i importen fra andre tredjelande, både for så vidt angår mængder og priser, mellem 2005 og UP fremgår af følgende tabel:
The trends in import volumes and prices from other third countries between 2005 and the IP were as follows:
De vigtigste andre tredjelande, der eksporterer garn med høj styrke til Unionen, er Schweiz, Belarus, Japan og Thailand.
The main other third countries exporting HTY to the Union are Switzerland, Belarus, Japan and Thailand.
Som det fremgår af ovenstående tabel, var den samlede importmængde fra disse lande temmelig lav i forhold til EU-forbruget, og den faldt med 45 % i den betragtede periode.
As shown in the above table, the combined import volume from these countries was rather low in relation to the Union consumption and decreased by 45 % over the period considered.
