En importør påstod desuden, at importen fra Thailand faktisk faldt med 40 % i skadesundersøgelsesperioden, men dette var baseret på importværdien — og ikke på mængden — for hele toldpositionen, hvilket altså også omfattede andre varer end den undersøgte vare.
One importer also claimed that the Thai imports actually decreased by 40 % during the injury investigation period, but this was based on the import value — and not on the volume — for the totality of the customs code, thus including products other than those under investigation.
Ud fra ovenstående bekræftes konklusionerne i betragtning 33-40 i forordningen om midlertidig told vedrørende EU-forbruget (som faldt med over 15 % mellem 2008 og UP) og importen fra Thailand.
In view of the above, the findings in recitals 33 to 40 of the provisional Regulation concerning the Union consumption (which decreased by more than 15 % between 2008 and the IP) and the imports from Thailand, are hereby confirmed.
En importør påstod, at skadesanalysen var forudindtaget på grund af EU-erhvervsgrenens vanskelige økonomiske situation, som skulle ses i sammenhæng med situationen i en af erhvervsgrenens forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomheder, som angiveligt var fortjenstgivende i sektoren for ringmekanismer.
One importer submitted that the injury analysis was biased because the poor financial situation of the Union industry should be seen in conjunction with the situation of one of its related companies, which is allegedly making profits in the RBM’s business.
Det skal i den forbindelse bemærkes, at skadesanalysen udelukkende fokuserer på EU-erhvervsgrenens salg på EU-markedet af den pågældende vare produceret i Unionen.
In this respect it is noted that the injury analysis should only focus on the Union industry’ sales on the Union market of the product concerned produced in the Union.
Da den forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomhed, jf. betragtning 69 i forordningen om midlertidig told, ikke er en producent i Unionen og overvejende forhandler varer uden oprindelse i Unionen, skal den ikke tages i betragtning i skadesanalysen.
Since, as mentioned in recital 69 of the provisional Regulation, the related company in question is not a producer in the Union and is mostly trading products not originating in the Union, it should not be taken into consideration for the purpose of the injury analysis.
Uanset ovenstående skal det ikke desto mindre understreges, at importøren ikke fremlagde nogen oplysninger om, at ovennævnte forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomheds økonomiske situation skulle være god.
Without prejudice to the above, it is nevertheless underlined that the importer has provided no information showing that the above-mentioned related company would be in a good financial situation.
Tværtimod viste de tal, der blev indhentet i løbet af undersøgelsen, at også denne virksomheds salgsmængder af ringmekanismer faldt markant i undersøgelsesperioden.
To the contrary, the figures obtained during the investigation show that also this company decreased significantly its sales volume of RBM during the investigation period.
I betragtning af ovenstående, og da der ikke blev fremsat andre bemærkninger vedrørende skadesanalysen, bekræftes betragtning 41-57 i forordningen om midlertidig told hermed, og det konkluderes, at EU-erhvervsgrenen har lidt væsentlig skade, jf. grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 5.
Account taken of the above and in the absence of other comments in respect to the injury analysis, the recitals 41 to 57 of the provisional Regulation are hereby confirmed, and it is concluded that the Union industry has suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
Selv om enkelte interesserede parter anfægtede de midlertidige konklusioner vedrørende virkningen af andre faktorer (se nedenfor), anfægtede ingen af dem den midlertidige konklusion om, at dumpingimporten fra Thailand forvoldte EU-erhvervsgrenen skade.
Even though some interested parties contested the provisional findings regarding the effect of other factors (see below), none of them contested the provisional conclusion that dumped imports from Thailand caused injury to the Union industry.
Konklusionerne i betragtning 58-64 i forordningen om midlertidig told bekræftes derfor.
The recitals 58 to 64 of the provisional Regulation are thus hereby confirmed.
En række interesserede parter anfægtede den midlertidige konklusion vedrørende virkningerne af andre faktorer og anførte, at faldet i efterspørgslen, konkurrencen mellem EU-producenterne, importen fra Indien og den selvpåførte skade var de vigtigste årsager til skaden.
Some interested parties contested the provisional findings concerning the effect of other factors, and submitted that alternately contraction in demand, competition between Union producers, imports from India and self-inflicted injury would be the main cause of injury.
Vedrørende faldet i efterspørgslen henvises der til betragtning 25-30 ovenfor, som bekræfter den tendens i forbruget, som blev fastslået i forordningen om midlertidig told.
Concerning the contraction in demand, reference is made to recitals 25 to 30 above which confirm the trend of the consumption established in the provisional Regulation.
Påstandene om, at virkningen af faldet i efterspørgslen var blevet undervurderet, afvises derfor.
The allegations that the effects of the contraction in demand have been underestimated should therefore be rejected.
Det skal dog ikke desto mindre erindres, at det i betragtning 67 i forordningen om midlertidig told blev konkluderet, at faldet i forbruget kan have bidraget til EU-erhvervsgrenens væsentlige skade, selv om denne virkning blev forstærket af dumpingimportens virkninger.
Nevertheless, it should be recalled that the recital 67 of the provisional Regulation concluded that the decrease in consumption indeed might have contributed to the material injury suffered by the Union industry, although this effect was considerably reinforced by the effect caused by the dumped imports.
Virkningen af faldet i efterspørgslen var dog ikke af et sådant omfang, at den kunne bryde årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og den konstaterede skade.
However, the effect of the decrease in consumption was not such as to break the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury found.
Den thailandske eksportør påstod også, at den skade, der forvoldtes EU-erhvervsgrenen, også skyldtes konkurrencen mellem EU-producenterne.
It was also argued by the Thai exporter that the injury suffered by the Union industry was also caused by the competition between the Union producers.
Dette skyldes navnlig, at EU-erhvervsgrenens tab af markedsandele faldt sammen med stigningen i markedsandele hos den anden EU-producent.
This is mainly because the loss of the Union industry’s market share coincided with the market share increase of the other Union producer.
Selv om den thailandske eksportørs beregninger i denne henseende ikke er helt korrekte, er det dog sandt, at den anden producents samlede markedsandel også steg i løbet af skadesundersøgelsesperioden.
In this respect, even if the calculations presented by the Thai exporter are not entirely correct, it is true that overall the market share of the second producer also increased during the injury investigation period.
Det skal dog erindres, at denne producent, jf. betragtning 30 i forordningen om midlertidig told, importerer en betydelig mængde ringmekanismer fra Thailand.
It should however be recalled that, as mentioned in the recital 30 of the provisional Regulation, this producer is importing a significant quantity of RBM from Thailand.
I det år, hvor denne producent øgede sit salg af EU-producerede varer og sin markedsandel, er det interessant at bemærke, at producenten også øgede sit salg af ringmekanismer fra Thailand.
Interestingly, the year when this producer managed to increase its sales of Union made products and market shares it also significantly increased its sales of RBM from Thailand.
Producenten blev faktisk en betydelig importør af ringmekanismer fra Thailand ved at købe en større del af eksporten fra Thailand i løbet af året.
Actually, it even became a significant importer of Thai RBM, by purchasing a major part of the Thai exports during that year.
Selv om den anden EU-producent således overtog markedsandele fra EU-erhvervsgrenen, er det derfor ikke vanskeligt at konkludere, at det lykkedes for denne virksomhed, idet den også havde fordel af dumpingimporten af ringmekanismer fra Thailand.
Therefore, even if indeed the second Union producer managed to take over some market shares from the Union industry, it is difficult not to conclude that this company managed to do this because it also benefited from the dumped imports of RBM from Thailand.
Det skal erindres, at denne producent blev udelukket fra definitionen af EU-erhvervsgrenen på grund af dens betydelige importaktiviteter i forhold til egenproduktionen.
It is recalled that this producer was excluded from the definition of the Union industry because of his important import activities as compared to his own production.
Desuden genfremsatte interesserede parter en påstand om, at den indiske import også forvoldt EU-erhvervsgrenen skade, en påstand som allerede blev behandlet i betragtning 69 i forordningen om midlertidig told.
Furthermore, the claim already addressed in recital 69 of the provisional Regulation that Indian imports also caused injury to the Union industry was reiterated by interested parties.
Påstanden blev især baseret på, at Indien har en markedsandel på ca. 50 % på EU-markedet, dvs. 3 gange større end Thailands markedsandel, og at de tilsvarende gennemsnitspriser faldt med 3 % mellem 2009 og UP og underbød EU-priserne med 24 %.
This was based on the fact that India holds around 50 % share of the Union market, i.e. three times more than Thailand, and that the corresponding average prices decreased by 3 % between 2009 and IP, while undercutting Union prices by 24 %.
Det blev også understreget, at en væsentlig del af den indiske import blev købt af en virksomhed, som er forretningsmæssigt forbundet med EU-erhvervsgrenen.
It was also underlined that a significant portion of the Indian imports was purchased by a company related to the Union industry.
Der blev dog ikke fremlagt nye beviser i denne henseende, og disse påstande blev allerede behandlet i forordningen om midlertidig told.
No new arguments were however given in this respect and these claims were already addressed in the provisional Regulation.
Den absolutte importmængde fra Indien var ganske rigtigt højere end importmængden fra Thailand, men det fremgik af forordningen om midlertidig told, at disse importmængder udviklede sig forskelligt: Importen fra Thailand steg generelt i skadesundersøgelsesperioden både i absolutte og relative tal, mens importen fra Indien faldt (med næsten 10 %), og markedsandelen også faldt svagt.
Even if the absolute level of Indian imports was indeed overall higher than that of Thailand, it was shown in the provisional Regulation that these imports developed differently: while Thai imports increased overall during the injury investigation period, both in absolute and relative terms, Indian imports decreased (by almost 10 %) and market shares also slightly diminished.
Desuden var de gennemsnitlige indiske importpriser også højere end de thailandske importpriser.
In addition, the Indian average price level was also higher than the Thai import price.
Selv om en af EU-erhvervsgrenens forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomheder importerer ringmekanismer fra Indien, viste undersøgelsen desuden, at denne import er faldet betydeligt i en årrække, jf. betragtning 32 ovenfor.
Furthermore, even if a company related to the Union industry is importing RBM from India, the investigation established that the level of these imports has significantly decreased over the years as mentioned above in recital 32.
Endelig påstod en række interesserede parter også, at klageren mistede kunder, idet virksomheden blev aktiv på leverandørmarkedet via moderselskabet, Ring International Holding (RIH), og at salget af ringmekanismer til forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomheder bør undersøges nøje, da det ikke foregår til priser som mellem uafhængige virksomheder.
Finally, several interested parties also claimed that the complainant lost its customers because it became active on the downstream market via its mother company, Ring International Holding (RIH), and that sales of RBM to related companies should be considered carefully because they would not be made at arm’s length.
Disse påstande må dog afvises, da de ikke var begrundede, og da undersøgelsen viste, at salget til forretningsmæssigt forbundne virksomheder var ubetydeligt i forhold til det samlede salg.
These claims have however been rejected because they were not substantiated and the investigation showed that sales to related companies were negligible as compared to total sales.
På dette grundlag bekræftes de foreløbige konklusioner i betragtning 65-76 i forordningen om midlertidig told hermed.
Based on the above, the provisional conclusions laid down in recitals 65 to 76 of the provisional Regulation are hereby confirmed.
Selv om andre faktorer end importen også havde en virkning på EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, konkluderes det, at dumpingimporten fra Thailand har forvoldt EU-erhvervsgrenen væsentlig skade, jf. grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6, på grundlag af en analyse, hvor der blev behørigt skelnet mellem alle de kendte faktorer, der har betydning for EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, og de skadevoldende virkninger af dumpingimporten.
Even if factors other than imports also had some impact on the situation of the Union industry, it is concluded that dumped imports from Thailand have caused material injury to the Union industry, within the meaning of Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation, based on an analysis which has properly distinguished and separated the effects of all known factors from the injurious effects of the dumped imports.
To af de fem importører, der samarbejdede i forbindelse med undersøgelsen, reagerede på fremlæggelsen af de midlertidige konklusioner og indsendte skriftlige bemærkninger.
Two of the five importers that cooperated during the investigation reacted to the disclosure of the provisional findings and submitted comments in writing.
En af disse importører samt en anden importør anmodede om at blive hørt mundtligt.
One of these importers requested to be heard as well as another importer.
Kommissionen besluttede desuden at gennemføre et kontrolbesøg hos den eneste bruger, der deltog i undersøgelsen.
The Commission also decided to carry out a visit at the premises of the sole user that participated to the investigation.
Der blev ikke fremsat bemærkninger vedrørende betragtning 79-90 i forordningen om midlertidig told, som beskriver markedet og EU-erhvervsgrenens interesser.
No comments were made with respect to the recitals 79 to 90 of the provisional Regulation concerning the description of the market and the section related to the interest of the Union industry.
Det erindres først og fremmest, at det i forordningen om midlertidig told blev konkluderet, at indførelsen af foranstaltninger kun ville få en betydelig negativ virkning for situationen hos en importør, som også producerer ringmekanismer i Unionen.
It is firstly recalled that in the provisional Regulation it was concluded that the imposition of measures could only have a significant negative impact on the situation of one importer, which also produces RBM in the Union.
Den pågældende importør reagerede ikke på indførelsen af de midlertidige foranstaltninger.
This importer did not react to the imposition of the provisional measures.
En anden importør, som også anmodede om en høring med høringskonsulenten, betvivlede navnlig beregningen af dumpingmargenen, skadesanalysen og beregningen af EU-forbruget.
One other importer, which also requested a hearing chaired by the Hearing Officer, mainly questioned the calculation of the dumping margin, the injury analysis and the calculation of the Union consumption.
Importøren fremkom dog ikke med nye bemærkninger vedrørende analysen af Unionens interesser.
It did however not raise any new comment regarding the Union interest analysis.
En tredje importør, som tegner sig for 20 % af den samlede import fra Thailand, anmodede om en høring, hvorunder den forklarede, at den i modsætning til de oplysninger, der var blevet indsendt tidligere i undersøgelsen, ikke indstillede alle sine aktiviteter i forbindelse med ringmekanismer, jf. betragtning 92 i forordningen om midlertidig told, men overførte dem til et andet kontor.
A third importer, representing 20 % of the overall Thai imports, requested a hearing during which it was explained that, contrary to the information submitted previously during the investigation, it did not cease all its activities related to RBM — as mentioned in recital 92 of the provisional Regulation — but has transferred them to another office.
Under høringen forklarede importøren, at dens ringmekanisme-aktiviteter kun er et supplement til kerneaktiviteten som omfatter andre varer, og importøren udelukkede ikke import af ringmekanismer fra Thailand, selv om der måtte indføres foranstaltninger.
During the hearing, this importer explained that its RBM-business is only complementary to its core one covering other products and did not exclude importing RBM from Thailand even if measures are imposed.
På grund af generalomkostningerne til importørens store distributionsnetværk, vil dette dog afhænge af antidumpingtoldens omfang og af muligheden for at øge de priser, kunderne skal betale.
However, because of the overhead costs of its large distribution network, this will depend on the level of the anti-dumping duties and on the possibility to increase the price to customers.
Alternativt vil importøren ikke få væsentlige negative konsekvenser ved at ophøre med sine ringmekanisme-aktiviteter i betragtning af denne aktivitets ringe omfang i forhold til den samlede aktivitet.
Alternatively, this importer would not suffer significant negative consequences from stopping the RBM-business given the minor importance of this activity as compared to its overall business.
Som nævnt i betragtning 5 ovenfor blev spørgeskemabesvarelsen fra den eneste samarbejdsvillige bruger verificeret under et kontrolbesøg efter indførelsen af de midlertidige foranstaltninger.
As mentioned in recital 5 above, the questionnaire reply of the only cooperating user was verified during the visit at its premises after the imposition of the provisional measures.
Denne bruger køber fra leverandører i mange lande, herunder Unionen, Indien og Thailand.
This user is purchasing from a variety of sources, including the Union, India and Thailand.
Brugeren importerede også fra Kina, men ændrede forsyningskilde efter indførelsen af antidumpingtold.
It also used to import from China but changed its source of supply since the imposition of anti-dumping duties.
Importen fra Thailand udgør ca. 10 % af brugerens samlede indkøb af ringmekanismer, og virksomheden besluttede ikke at importere thailandske varer efter indførelsen af de midlertidige foranstaltninger.
Thai imports represent around 10 % of its total purchases of RBM, and the company decided not to import Thai products since the imposition of the provisional measures.
Selv om foranstaltningerne hidtil tilsyneladende ikke har påvirket brugerens økonomiske situation væsentligt, beklagede virksomheden dog, at dens forsyningskilder var blevet begrænset, og især at virksomheden fremover ikke altid vil kunne anvende korttidslevering af ringmekanismer.
Even if so far the measures did not seem to have significantly affected its economic situation, this company nevertheless deplored the limitation of its sources of supply, and especially the fact that now it cannot rely always on short-term delivery of RBM.
Interesserede parter gentog deres påstand, som dog allerede var blevet behandlet i forordningen om midlertidig told, nemlig at indførelsen af foranstaltninger ville føre til en begrænsning af forsyningskilder på EU-markedet.
Interested parties reiterated their claim, already addressed in the provisional Regulation, that the imposition of measures would lead to limited sources of supply on the Union market.
Det skal dog på ny bemærkes, at undersøgelsen ganske rigtigt viste, at EU-markedet er kendetegnet ved et begrænset antal aktører, nemlig en producent i Indien, en i Thailand, to i Unionen og et vist antal i Kina.
It is thus worth restating that indeed the investigation showed that the Union market is characterised by a limited number of players: there is one producer in India, one in Thailand, two in the Union and some in China.
Formålet med antidumpingforanstaltninger er at genskabe loyal konkurrence på EU-markedet og ikke at forhindre import.
The purpose of anti-dumping measures is to restore fair competition on the Union market and not to prevent imports.
Dette kan ganske rigtigt føre til en begrænsning af importniveauet, mens foranstaltningerne modvirker importens konkurrenceforvridende virkning.
This may indeed result in a reduction of the level of imports, while measures offset the trade distorting nature of these imports.
Dette er dog i sig selv ikke en tilstrækkelig grund til at rejse tvivl vedrørende indførelsen af foranstaltninger over for dumpingimporten.
This is however, as such, not a sufficient reason to question the imposition of measures against dumped imports.
Det kan endda påstås, at der skal sikres loyal konkurrence på EU-markedet for at garantere alle leverandørers fortsatte eksistens på længere sigt.
It could even be argued that fair competition should be guaranteed on the Union market to ensure the continued existence of all sources of supply in the long term.
Det forventes, at importen fra Thailand med den endelige tolds niveau, som er lavere end den midlertidige told, fortsat vil kunne komme ind på EU-markedet, og undersøgelsen viste samtidig, at der også findes andre leverandører, dog i et begrænset antal.
It is expected that with a level of the definitive duty, which is lower than the provisional one, Thai imports could still enter the Union market, while the investigation has shown that there are also other sources of supply, even if in limited number.
Konklusion vedrørende Unionens interesser
Conclusion on the Union interest
Ud fra ovenstående, og da der ikke blev fremsat andre bemærkninger, bekræftes betragtning 77-110 i forordningen om midlertidig told hermed, og det konkluderes, at der overordnet set — ud fra de foreliggende oplysninger vedrørende Unionens interesser — ikke er tvingende grunde til ikke at indføre endelige foranstaltninger over for importen af ringmekanismer med oprindelse i Thailand.
In the light of the above, and in the absence of any other comments, recitals 77 to 110 of the provisional Regulation are hereby confirmed and it is concluded that overall, based on the information available concerning the Union interest, there are no compelling reasons against the imposition of definitive measures against imports of RBM originating in Thailand.
Da der ikke blev fremsat andre bemærkninger til skadestærsklen, bekræftes betragtning 111-114 i forordningen om midlertidig told hermed.
In the absence of any comments as to the injury elimination level, recitals 111 to 114 of the provisional Regulation are hereby confirmed.
Hvad angår den told, som er nødvendig for at afhjælpe virkningerne af skadevoldende dumping, blev det bemærket, at antidumpingtolden burde reduceres til 6 %, idet den indiske import angiveligt ikke er dumpet og er 6 % højere end importen fra Thailand.
With respect to the amount of duty necessary to remove the effects of the injurious dumping, it has been commented that the anti-dumping duty should be reduced to 6 %, since allegedly Indian imports are not dumped and are 6 % higher than Thai imports.
Det skal i den forbindelse bemærkes, at formålet med antidumpingtolden ikke er at justere priserne til de andre leverandørers priser, men derimod at afhjælpe de fordrejende virkninger af skadevoldende dumping.
In this respect, it is noted that the purpose of anti-dumping duties is not to align prices to those of other sources but to eliminate the distorting effects of injurious dumping.
