I argumenterne fremførtes det, at håndmalet bordservice er målrettet mod en bestemt forbrugertype, at det kan bruges til andre formål end traditionelt bordservice (f.eks. pynt), at det ikke produceres i kommercielle mængder i Unionen, og at det hverken er konkurrencedygtigt eller substituerbart med andet bordservice/andre køkkenartikler; argumenterne vedrørte desuden en anden forbrugeropfattelse, varens luksuriøse og mere skrøbelige karakter samt dens specifikke produktionsproces, som kræver mere arbejdskraft og højt kvalificerede arbejdere.
The arguments put forward concerned the fact that hand-painted tableware is targeted at a certain kind of consumers, that it may be used for different purposes than traditional tableware (e.g. decoration), that it is not produced in commercial quantities in the Union, that it is neither directly competitive nor interchangeable with other kitchen/tableware, the different perception by consumers, its luxury and more fragile nature, along with its specific production process, more labour intensive and involving highly skilled workers.
Undersøgelsen viste, at varen er fuldstændig identisk med ikkehåndmalet bordservice, indtil håndmalingen finder sted.
The investigation showed that the product is absolutely identical to non-hand-painted tableware until the hand-painting takes place.
Den viste også, at den øgede manuelle håndtering, der kræves i produktionsprocessen, ikke gør varen til en anden vare. For de fleste forbrugere er det faktisk vanskeligt, hvis ikke umuligt, at skelne håndmalet porcelæn fra ikkehåndmalet porcelæn.
It also made clear that the fact that the manufacturing process involves more manual handling does not render the product a different one; indeed, for most end-users hand-painted porcelain is difficult to distinguish, if at all, from non-hand painted porcelain.
Undersøgelsen viste videre, at håndmalet bordservice normalt har det samme anvendelsesformål som andre typer bordservice af keramisk materiale, og at det ikke nødvendigvis er mere skrøbeligt.
The investigation further showed that hand-painted tableware has normally the same end-use as other types of ceramic tableware and that it is not necessarily more fragile.
Den viste også, at flere EU-producenter rent faktisk fremstiller håndmalet porcelæn, og at varer fremstillet i Unionen og importerede varer konkurrerer direkte.
It was also found that several Union producers do manufacture hand-painted porcelain and that Union-made and imported products are in direct competition.
Påstanden om udelukkelse af håndmalet bordservice fra varedækningen i denne undersøgelse afvises derfor foreløbigt.
The claims for the exclusion of hand-painted tableware from the product scope of the investigation are therefore provisionally rejected.
Underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice
Underglaze figurative hand-painted tableware
En importør argumenterede for en udelukkelse af underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice fra varedækningen i denne undersøgelse.
An importer made representations for excluding underglaze figurative hand-painted tableware from the product scope of the investigation.
I argumenterne fremførtes det, at underglaseret håndmalet bordservice kræver en anden produktionsproces, har et andet særligt anvendelsesformål (bruges til fødevarer, hvilket varer med maling på glasur angiveligt ikke kan) og har en anden kvalitet og andre fysiske kendetegn, nemlig fødevaresikkert og 100 % egnet til opvaskemaskine og mikrobølgeovn.
The arguments put forward concerned the fact that underglaze hand-painted tableware entails a different production process, a different use (used for food and drink, whereas, allegedly, on-glaze painted products normally cannot) and different quality and physical characteristics, namely food-safe and 100 % dishwasher and microwave proof.
Parten fremførte også, at ingen EU-producent kan eller er villig til at fremstille kommercielle mængder af underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice, og tilkendegav, at der ikke er risiko for omgåelse, hvis underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice udelukkes fra varedækningen i denne undersøgelse.
The party also said that no Union producer is capable and willing to do commercial volumes of underglaze figurative hand-painted tableware and suggested that there is no circumvention risk, should underglaze figurative hand-painted tableware be excluded from the product scope of the investigation.
Det hævdedes også, at forbrugerne ville opfatte det anderledes, idet det opfattes som et samler-/livsstilsobjekt snarere end en del af et mærke og ikke sælges som komplette stel.
It also argued that consumer perceive it in a different way, given that, rather than as part of a brand, it is seen as collector/lifestyle item and not sold in complete sets.
Undersøgelsen viste dog, at der ikke findes en universelt anerkendt/objektiv definition af denne kategori, og at flere EU-producenter rent faktisk kan fremstille denne type porcelæn.
Yet, the investigation showed that, on the one hand, there is no universally accepted/objective definition of this category and that, on the other hand, several Union producers can manufacture it.
Det blev desuden bemærket, at varer fremstillet i Unionen og importerede varer konkurrerer direkte.
In addition, it was noted that Union-made and imported products are in direct competition.
Undersøgelsen viste, at varen fysisk er fuldstændigt identisk med ikkehåndmalet bordservice, og at den gennemsnitlige forbruger ikke skelner mellem underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice og andre typer dekoreret bordservice.
The investigation disclosed that the product is physically absolutely identical to non-hand-painted tableware and that the average consumer does not make a difference between underglaze figurative hand-painted tableware and other types of decorated tableware.
Den viste også, at den øgede manuelle håndtering, der kræves i produktionsprocessen, ikke gør varen til en anden vare, og at underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice grundlæggende har det samme anvendelsesformål som andre typer bordservice af keramisk materiale.
It also made clear that the fact that the manufacturing process involves more skilled labour does not render the product a different one and that underglaze hand-painted tableware has basically the same end-use as other types of ceramic tableware.
Påstanden om udelukkelse af underglaseret figurativt håndmalet bordservice fra varedækningen i denne undersøgelse afvises derfor foreløbigt.
The claims for the exclusion of underglaze hand-painted tableware from the product scope of the investigation are therefore provisionally rejected.
Bordservice produceret uden for EU
Non-EU produced tableware items
I nogle importørers fremstillinger hævdes det, at undersøgelsen bør begrænses til markeder, der forsynes af de klagende EU-producenter.
Some importers’ representations claim that the investigation should be limited to markets currently being served by complaining Union producers.
Ellers vil told skade visse »specialiserede« importører, uden at de kan købe fra EU-producenter.
Otherwise duties would harm certain ‘specialised’ importers without them being able to source from Union producers.
Det fremføres også, at EU-producenter med mærkevarer ikke producerer for andre virksomheder, og at EU-producenter hverken effektuerer små ordrer eller arbejder med støbeforme, der kræves til bestemte former.
It was also submitted that Union producers with brands do not produce for other companies and that Union producers do neither serve small orders nor work with castings as required for certain shapes.
EU-producenter er desuden ikke fleksible og tilbyder ikke gaveartikler.
Also, Union producers would not be flexible and would not offer gift presentations.
Denne påstand afvises foreløbigt, da den er for bred og udefineret, og da der ikke er et objektivt grundlag for en sådan udelukkelse.
This claim is provisionally rejected as it is too wide and undefined and there is no objective basis for such exclusion.
EU-producenter har desuden et bredt vareudvalg og tilbyder regelmæssigt nye varer, således at kollektioner og varer løbende varierer.
Moreover, Union producers have a wide range of products and do regularly offer new products, thus collections and products ranges vary continuously.
De typer varer og kvaliteter, der produceres af EU-erhvervsgrenen, findes også almindeligvis hos eksportører.
The types of products and qualities produced by the Union industry are regularly also found with exporters.
Undersøgelsen viste endvidere, at nogle EU-producenter producerer varer under andre parters mærker.
In addition, the investigation unveiled that there are Union producers that manufacture items under other parties’ brands.
Den konstaterede også, at EU-producerede og kinesiske importerede varer konkurrerer direkte, nemt kan erstattes og har samme anvendelsesformål, lignende produktionsprocesser og kundeopfattelse.
It has also been found that Union-manufactured and Chinese imported products are in direct competition, can be easily substituted and share the same end use, similar production processes and customer perception.
Spørgsmålet om fleksibilitet er omhandlet i afsnittet om Unionens interesser.
The question of flexibility is addressed in the Union interest section.
Stentøj
Stoneware
En importør med produktion i Kina fremførte, at import af stentøjsvarer, primært køkkenartikler, burde udelukkes fra varedækningen.
An importer with production in China claimed that imports of stoneware products, mainly consisting of kitchenware, should be excluded from the product scope.
Denne part hævdede, at der kun sker marginal produktion af stentøjsvarer i EU, og at klagerne højst sandsynligt havde medtaget stentøjsvarer for at foregribe omgåelse.
According to this party there would only be a marginal production of stoneware products in the Union and a strong likelihood that complainants included stoneware products to pre-empt circumvention.
Importøren fremførte videre, at vedkommendes priser for importerede varer var meget højere end EU-producenternes priser, og at denne import ikke forvoldte pristryk eller skade.
The importer alleged also that the prices it charged on imported products were much higher than those charged by any other producer in the Union and that these imports did not cause any price depression or injury.
Undersøgelsen har dog påvist, at EU-produktionen af stentøj er betydelig.
Yet, the investigation has shown that the Union production of stoneware is significant.
Den konkluderede, at EU-producerede og kinesiske importerede stentøjsvarer konkurrerer direkte, nemt kan erstattes og har samme anvendelsesformål, lignende produktionsprocesser og kundeopfattelse, samt fysiske kendetegn.
It is also concluded that Union-manufactured and Chinese imported stoneware products are in direct competition, can be easily substituted and share the same end use, similar production processes and customer perception and physical characteristics.
Prisrelaterede påstande er omhandlet i betragtning 239.
Price-related allegations are dealt with in recital (240).
Påstanden om udelukkelse af stentøj fra varedækningen i denne undersøgelse afvises derfor foreløbigt.
The claim for the exclusion of stoneware from the product scope of the investigation is therefore provisionally rejected.
Alternativt fremførte parten, at glaserede og/eller emaljerede stentøjsvarer eller kulørte og/eller delvist glaserede og/eller emaljerede stentøjsvarer burde udelukkes fra varedækningen i undersøgelsen.
Alternatively, the party claimed that stoneware glazed and/or enamelled products or non-white and/or graded stoneware glazed and/or enamelled products should be excluded from the scope of the investigation.
En konklusion vedrørende dette punkt kan dog ikke drages på dette trin i proceduren.
However a conclusion on this point could not be reached at this stage of the proceeding.
Andre påstande
Other claims
En importør fremførte, at varedækningen i undersøgelsen var for bred til, at der kunne foretages en rimelig sammenligning af varetyperne.
An importer claimed that the product scope of the investigation was too wide to allow for a reasonable comparison amongst product types.
En importør med producentinteresser i Kina fremførte et lignende synspunkt.
An importer with producing interests in China expressed a similar view.
I den forbindelse henviste nogle parter også til varer, der alene har dekorative formål.
In this respect, some parties also referred to purely decorative items.
I den henseende beskrives de relevante kriterier, der skal anvendes til at fastslå, hvorvidt en vare, der er genstand for en undersøgelse, kan betragtes som én og samme vare, dvs. de fysiske og tekniske egenskaber, nærmere nedenfor.
In this respect, it is noted that the relevant criteria applied in order to determine whether or not the product, subject of an investigation, can be considered a single product, i.e. its basic physical and technical characteristics, are set out in detail below.
Varer, der alene har dekorative formål, er derfor ikke omfattet.
Purely decorative items are thus not covered.
Selv om de forskellige typer bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale kan have forskellige specifikke egenskaber, viste undersøgelsen, at deres grundlæggende egenskaber med undtagelse af knive af keramisk materiale stadig er identiske.
Furthermore, even though the various types of ceramic tableware and kitchenware may indeed have certain different specific characteristics, the investigation showed that, with the exception of ceramic knives, their basic characteristics remain identical.
Det forhold, at den pågældende vare kan fremstilles med variationer i produktionsprocessen, er desuden ikke et kriterium i sig selv, der kan give anledning til en opdeling i to eller flere separate varer.
In addition, the fact that the product concerned can be produced with some variations in the manufacturing process is not in itself a criterion which could result in a finding of two or more distinct products.
Endelig viste undersøgelsen også, at de forskellige typer af den pågældende vare generelt bliver solgt gennem de samme salgskanaler.
Finally, the investigation also revealed that the various types of the product concerned were generally sold via the same sales channels.
Mens visse specialbutikker eventuelt fokuserer på visse specifikke typer, sælger de fleste distributører (detailhandlere, varehuse og supermarkeder) forskellige typer bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale for således at give deres kunder adgang til et bredt sortiment.
While some specialised shops may focus on certain specific types, a big share of the distributors (retailers, department stores, supermarkets) sell various types of ceramic tableware and kitchenware, in order to offer a wide choice range to their customers.
Påstande om, at varedækningen i denne undersøgelse er for bred, afvises derfor foreløbigt.
Claims that the product scope of the investigation was too wide are therefore provisionally rejected.
En part fremførte, at visse krydderikværne af keramisk materiale burde udelukkes fra varedækningen.
A party claimed that certain ceramic spice mill should be excluded from the product scope.
Undersøgelsen kunne dog ikke drage en konklusion med hensyn til deres særlige egenskaber, og påstanden afvises derfor foreløbigt.
However, the investigation could not come to a conclusion on their specificities, thus the claim was provisionally rejected.
Konklusion om den pågældende vare
Conclusion on product concerned
Det fremgik af undersøgelsen, at alle typer bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale trods forskelle i egenskaber og stilart har de samme grundlæggende fysiske og tekniske egenskaber, dvs. bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale, der er beregnet til at komme i kontakt med fødevarer, grundlæggende anvendes til samme formål og kan betragtes som forskellige typer af den samme vare.
The investigation has shown that all types of ceramic tableware and kitchenware, despite the differences in terms of properties and style, have the same basic physical and technical characteristics, i.e. ceramic ware primarily aimed at being in contact with food, they are basically used for the same purposes, and can be regarded as different types of the same product.
Ud over det forhold, at de alle har samme grundlæggende fysiske og tekniske egenskaber, er alle disse forskellige stilarter og typer i direkte indbyrdes konkurrence og i meget vid udstrækning substituerbare.
In addition to the fact that they share the same basic physical and technical characteristics, all those various styles and types are in direct competition and to a very large extent interchangeable.
Der er ikke nogen klare skillelinjer mellem dem, dvs. der er en del overlapning og konkurrence mellem forskellige varetyper, og almindelige købere skelner ofte ikke mellem porcelænsvarer og ikkeporcelænsvarer.
This is clearly illustrated by the fact that there are no clear dividing lines between them, i.e. there is quite some overlapping and competition between different product types and standard buyers do not often make a distinction for instance between porcelain versus non-porcelain goods.
Som forklaret i betragtning 28-33 ovenfor anses det også for hensigtsmæssigt at indsnævre den definition af varedækning, der er udgangspunktet for undersøgelsen, ved at udelukke knive af keramisk materiale.
However, as explained in recitals (29)-(34) above, it was also deemed appropriate to narrow down the product scope definition on the basis of which the current investigation has been initiated by excluding ceramic knives.
Den pågældende vare defineres derfor foreløbigt som bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale, ekskl. knive, med oprindelse i Kina henhørende under KN-kode ex69111000, ex69120010, ex69120030, ex69120050 og ex69120090.
Therefore, the product concerned is provisionally defined as ceramic tableware and kitchenware, excluding ceramic knives, originating in the People’s Republic of China, currently falling within CN codes ex69111000, ex69120010, ex69120030, ex69120050 and ex69120090.
Med henblik på denne procedure og i overensstemmelse med Unionens sædvanlige praksis konkluderes det derfor, at alle typer af den ovenfor beskrevne vare, med undtagelse af knive af keramisk materiale, skal betragtes som værende én og samme vare.
In conclusion, for the purposes of this proceeding and in accordance with consistent Union practice, it is therefore considered that all types of the product described above, with the exception of ceramic knives, should be regarded as forming one single product.
Undersøgelsen har vist, at bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale, som fremstilles og sælges af EU-erhvervsgrenen i Unionen, bordservice af keramisk materiale, der fremstilles og sælges på hjemmemarkedet i Kina, og bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale, som importeres til Unionen fra Kina, samt bordservice af keramisk materiale, der fremstilles og sælges i referencelandet Brasilien, har de samme grundlæggende fysiske og kemiske egenskaber og de samme grundlæggende anvendelsesformål.
The investigation has shown that ceramic tableware and kitchenware produced and sold by the Union industry in the Union, ceramic tableware produced and sold on the domestic market of the PRC and ceramic tableware and kitchenware imported into the Union from the PRC, as well as that produced and sold in Brazil, which serves as an analogue country, have the same basic physical and chemical characteristics and the same basic end uses.
Påstande
Claims
I forbindelse med undersøgelsen hævdede visse interesserede parter, at bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale, som fremstilles og sælges af EU-erhvervsgrenen i Unionen, ikke svarede til den pågældende vare.
During the investigation, certain interested parties argued that ceramic tableware and kitchenware produced by the Union industry and sold on the Union market was not similar to the product concerned.
De påstod, at dette især gjorde sig gældende med hensyn til varernes forskellige egenskaber, kvalitet, forbrugeropfattelser, salgskanaler og markedssegmentering.
They claimed that this is evidenced in particular by differences between products in terms of properties, quality, consumer perceptions, channels of sales and segmentation.
Det blev endvidere fremført, at forbrugere i Unionen som regel opfatter den pågældende vare som en billigere vare, og at disse varer ikke nyder godt af nogen mærkevareeffekt.
It was further claimed that the consumers in the Union usually perceive the product concerned as being a cheaper product and that those products do not benefit from any brand premium.
Undersøgelsen viste, at der var modstridende erklæringer fra importørerne i den henseende.
The investigation revealed contradictory statements by importers in that respect.
Nogle fremførte, at den pågældende vare normalt er af ringere kvalitet og er placeret i en anden priskategori sammenlignet med EU-producerede varer, mens andre hævdede, at bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale af bestemte mærker produceret i det pågældende land importeres til højere priser fra Kina.
While some claimed that the product concerned is usually of inferior quality and remains in a different price category compared to Union made products, others claimed that brand ceramic tableware and kitchenware manufactured in the country concerned is imported at higher prices from China.
På den ene side anførte en ikkestikprøveudvalgt importør, at tyske producenter lægger særlig vægt på kvalitetsprofilen »made in Germany«.
On the one hand one non-sampled importer submitted that German producers place particular emphasis to the quality profile ‘made in Germany’.
Parten fremførte, at kvaliteten af bestik leveret af visse tyske mærker er betydeligt bedre på grund af produktionsmetoden, mens andre importører anførte, at de importerede varer fra Kina på grund af den gode kvalitet, støbemulighederne og den uddannede arbejdskraft.
The party stated that the quality of the flat tableware supplied by certain German brands is considerably better because of the manufacturing method, while other importers stated that they sourced from China because of the good qualities, casting capabilities and the skilled workers.
Undersøgelsen bekræftede, at der i EU produceres bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale af både lav og høj kvalitet, som sælges via de samme distributionskanaler som den pågældende vare, dvs. via uafhængige detailhandlere, ikkespecialiserede supermarkeder, stormagasiner osv. De konkurrerer derfor på det samme marked.
The investigation confirmed that in the Union both low and high quality ceramic tableware and kitchenware are manufactured and sold via the same distribution channels as the product concerned, i.e. via independent retailers, non-specialised supermarkets, department stores, etc. Therefore, they compete at the same market.
Oprindelseslandet angives desuden ikke altid på bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale.
In addition, ceramic tableware and kitchenware does not necessarily indicate its country of origin.
Det er derfor vanskeligt for forbrugeren at skelne mellem bordservice og køkkenartikler af keramisk materiale fremstillet i det pågældende land og varer fremstillet i Unionen.
It is therefore often very difficult for the consumer to make the distinction between ceramic tableware and kitchenware manufactured in the country concerned and Union-made products.
