As mentioned above, the Commission used import data from the Article 14(6) database which concern only imports of the product under investigation and therefore the volume of imports and, consequently, estimated Union consumption are more accurate than if full eight digit codes Eurostat data was used.
Stoga Komisija nije mogla utvrditi privlačnost razine cijene u Uniji u odnosu na druga izvozna tržišta.
Union consumption developed as follows:
Međutim, kako je utvrđeno nakon dodatne objave, izračuni sniženja cijena pokazali su da su prosječne cijene koje su proizvođači iz Unije ostvarili na tržištu Unije bile znatno više od kineskih uvoznih cijena tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije.
Table 1
Na temelju toga može se utvrditi da je razina cijene na tržištu Unije privlačna za kineske proizvođače izvoznike.
Source: Verified questionnaire replies and applicant's data, Article 14(6) database.
Nadalje, Komisija je smatrala da je privlačnost tržišta Unije dokazana i. razinom kineskog prodora na tržište prije uvođenja mjera (51 % tržišnog udjela tijekom razdoblja početnog ispitnog postupka [11]) i ii. postojanjem brojnih praksi izbjegavanja kako je navedeno u uvodnim izjavama od 2. do 5.

Stoga je Komisija zaključila da je tržište Unije i dalje privlačno za kineske proizvođače izvoznike.

Zaključak o vjerojatnosti ponavljanja dampinga
Index (2013 = 100)
Na temelju prethodno navedenoga Komisija je zaključila da s obzirom na znatan rezervni kapacitet u Kini i privlačnost tržišta Unije postoji vjerojatnost ponavljanja dampinga ako se dopusti istek postojećih mjera.
During the period considered, Union consumption increased every year and by 21 % in total.
VJEROJATNOST PONAVLJANJA ŠTETE
The strong growth in consumption reflects the general recovery in the construction sector and the strong demand for external thermal insulation materials, which is a downstream product that uses open mesh fabrics of glass fibres.
Definicija industrije Unije i proizvodnje u Uniji
The Union consumption for open mesh fabrics of glass fibres is forecast to continue to grow in the coming years.
Tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije istovjetni su proizvod proizvodila 22 poznata proizvođača.
Imports from the country concerned
Oni čine „industriju Unije” u smislu članka 4. stavka 1.
Volume and market share of imports from the country concerned
Osnovne uredbe.
Imports into the Union from the PRC developed as follows:
Utvrđeno je da je ukupna proizvodnja u Uniji tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije iznosila 694633582 kvadratnih metara.
Table 2
Društva koja su podržala zahtjev za reviziju činila su više od 80 % ukupne proizvodnje u Uniji u razdoblju ispitnog postupka revizije.
Import volume and market share
Kako je navedeno u uvodnoj izjavi 18., proizvođači iz Unije u uzorku činili su više od 70 % ukupne proizvodnje istovjetnog proizvoda u Uniji.

Potrošnja u Uniji
Volume of imports from the country concerned (square metres)
Komisija je utvrdila potrošnju u Uniji dodavanjem obujma prodaje industrije Unije na tržištu Unije i uvoza iz svih zemalja na temelju baze podataka iz članka 14. stavka 6.
Market share
[12]
Volume of imports from the countries under anti-circumvention measures [13] (square metres)
Komisija napominje da su zainteresirane strane, a posebno podnositelj zahtjeva, za procjenu obujma uvoza iz NRK-a i drugih zemalja upotrijebili podatke Eurostata o uvozu za pune osmeroznamenkaste oznake.
During the period considered, the volume of imports into the Union from the PRC decreased by 57 %.
Međutim, te oznake uključuju i proizvode koji nisu obuhvaćeni ispitnim postupkom.
It increased first between 2013 and 2014 by 7 %, but then decreased sharply by 45 % between 2014 and 2015, and stayed low until the end of the investigation review period.
Kako je prethodno navedeno, Komisija je upotrijebila podatke o uvozu iz baze podataka iz članka 14. stavka 6. koji se odnose samo na uvoz proizvoda iz ispitnog postupka i stoga su obujam uvoza i, posljedično, procijenjena potrošnja u Uniji točniji nego u slučaju upotrebe podataka Eurostata za pune osmeroznamenkaste oznake.
Chinese market share followed this trend, increasing, first, from 2013 to 2014 and then falling sharply first to 1,68 % during 2014, and then to 1,18 % in the review investigation period from the 2014 high of 3,50 %.
Potrošnja u Uniji razvijala se kako slijedi:
The decrease of the market share was greater than the decrease in the volume of imports because of the growing Union consumption.
Tablica 1.
The total volume of imports from these five countries decreased significantly during the period considered with the sharpest decrease happening from 2013 to 2014.
RIPR
In the review investigation period the total volume of imports from these five countries reached only 1118317 square metres corresponding to a market share of only 0,16 %.
Ukupna potrošnja u Uniji (u kvadratnim metrima)
The applicant, several Union producers and the European Association of Technical Fabrics producers (TECH-FAB Europe) claimed in the review request, in ad hoc submissions and during hearings that the real volume of imports of the product under review from the PRC was significantly higher than reported in Eurostat or other official statistics due to massive volume of Chinese imports arriving in the Union via Ukraine, Turkey, Republic of Moldova, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and possibly other countries.
Indeks (2013. = 100)
First, the Commission noted that Eurostat import statistics at TARIC level are not available to the applicant and that the 8 digit CN codes relied upon by the applicant are a too broad product category, as already mentioned in recital 85.
Tijekom razmatranog razdoblja potrošnja u Uniji povećavala se svake godine i ukupno za 21 %.
Therefore, they overstate the volume of imports of the products covered by this investigation.
Snažan rast potrošnje odraz je općeg oporavka građevinskog sektora i snažne potražnje za materijalima za vanjsku toplinsku izolaciju, što je proizvod na kraju proizvodnog lanca u kojem se upotrebljavaju tkanine otvorene mrežaste strukture od staklenih vlakana.
Second, the Commission has not received a request under Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation to investigate the possible circumvention of the measures in force via any of the above-mentioned countries.
U sljedećim godinama predviđa se daljnji rast potrošnje tkanina otvorene mrežaste strukture od staklenih vlakana u Uniji.
Moreover, the available import statistics show that imports from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turkey and Ukraine were negligible during the review investigation period.
Uvoz iz predmetne zemlje
Concerning imports from countries neighbouring the Union, it should also be noted that in the review request the applicant itself acknowledged that the measures in force had a positive effect, as they increased the diversity of supply including the Union neighbouring countries, which started to develop production.
Obujam i tržišni udio uvoza iz predmetne zemlje
This statement is supported by a submission received from a producer, which is related to a Union producer, located in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
Uvoz u Uniju iz NRK-a razvijao se kako slijedi:
Accordingly, the assumptions about circumvention were not supported by evidence or facts, so they were not taken into consideration.

Prices of imports from the country concerned and price undercutting
Obujam uvoza i tržišni udio
The Commission also established the trend of the prices of Chinese imports on the basis of Article 14(6) database.
Izvor: baza podataka iz članka 14. stavka 6.
The average price of imports from the country concerned developed as follows:
Obujam uvoza iz predmetne zemlje (u kvadratnim metrima)

Tržišni udio
Import prices
Obujam uvoza iz zemalja koje podliježu mjerama protiv izbjegavanja [13] (u kvadratnim metrima)
Chinese import prices (EUR/square metres)
Tijekom razmatranog razdoblja obujam uvoza u Uniju iz NRK-a smanjio se za 57 %.
Overall, during the period considered average import prices increased by 53 % and reached 0,23 EUR per square metre in the review investigation period.
Prvo se povećao od 2013. do 2014. za 7 %, ali se zatim naglo smanjio za 45 % od 2014. do 2015. i ostao nizak do kraja razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije.
In the absence of cooperation from any Chinese exporting producers subject to this review, the Commission determined the price undercutting during the review investigation period by comparing the weighted average sales price of the sampled Union producers charged to independent customers in the Union market, adjusted to an ex works level, and the average Chinese export price based on the Article 14(6) database at CIF level after appropriate adjustments for customs duties and post-importation costs.
Kineski tržišni udjel pratio je to kretanje te se najprije povećao od 2013. do 2014., a zatim se naglo smanjio s najvišeg iznosa od 3,50 %, koliko je iznosio 2014., najprije na 1,68 % tijekom 2014., a zatim na 1,18 % tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije.
The comparison showed that during the review investigation period there was no price undercutting.
Smanjenje tržišnog udjela bilo je veće od smanjenja obujma uvoza zbog rastuće potrošnje u Uniji.
However, if no account is taken of the anti-dumping duty, Chinese imports undercut the Union industry prices, on average, by 22,5 %.
S obzirom na mjere na snazi protiv izbjegavanja i tvrdnju podnositelja zahtjeva da bi ih trebalo dodati kineskom tržišnom udjelu, Komisija je razmotrila i razvoj uvoza iz Indije, Indonezije, Malezije, Tajvana i Tajlanda.
In the original investigation, a quality adjustment was made to the Chinese import prices.
Podnositelj zahtjeva, nekoliko proizvođača iz Unije i Europsko udruženje proizvođača tehničkih tkanina (TECH-FAB Europe) tvrdili su u zahtjevu za reviziju, ad hoc podnescima i tijekom saslušanja da je stvarni obujam uvoza proizvoda iz postupka revizije iz NRK-a znatno veći nego što je zabilježeno u statističkim podacima Eurostata ili drugim službenim statističkim podacima zbog golemog obujma kineskog uvoza pristiglog u Uniju preko Ukrajine, Turske, Republike Moldove, bivše jugoslavenske republike Makedonije, Srbije, Bosne i Hercegovine i možda drugih zemalja.
At the disclosure stage, and in the absence of any claims in this respect, the Commission initially applied the same adjustment in the review investigation as in the original investigation.
Prvo, Komisija je napomenula da podnositelj zahtjeva ne raspolaže statističkim podacima Eurostata o uvozu na razini TARIC-a i da su osmeroznamenkaste oznake KN na koje se poziva preširoka kategorija proizvoda, kako je već navedeno u uvodnoj izjavi 85.
However, subsequent to the disclosure, the applicant made two sets of comments regarding quality adjustments and the relevant import prices, respectively.
Stoga je u njima preuveličan obujam uvoza proizvoda koji su obuhvaćeni ovim ispitnim postupkom.
Regarding the first set of comments, the applicant submitted that the Chinese producers have improved the quality of their products since the original investigation and demonstrated that the largest Chinese producers currently comply with the quality requirements for all main areas of application.
Drugo, Komisija nije zaprimila zahtjev u skladu s člankom 13. stavkom 3.
As is set out in recitals 101 to 103 below, on the basis of the evidence provided by the applicant, and absent of any substantiated evidence to the contrary, the Commission decided not to apply the quality adjustment in this review.
Osnovne uredbe za ispitivanje mogućeg izbjegavanja mjera na snazi preko bilo koje od prethodno navedenih zemalja.
Regarding the second set of comments, the applicant further claimed after disclosure that the Chinese import prices used for this price comparison would not be representative in view of the relatively low volumes.
Nadalje, iz raspoloživih statističkih podataka o uvozu proizlazi da je uvoz iz Bosne i Hercegovine, Turske i Ukrajine bio zanemariv tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije.
The applicant suggested that, in view of these low volumes and the high anti-dumping duty, the imports from China that took place during the review investigation period were imports of very high quality supply for small niche markets.
U pogledu uvoza iz susjednih zemalja Unije trebalo bi napomenuti i da je podnositelj zahtjeva u zahtjevu za reviziju priznao da mjere na snazi imaju pozitivan učinak jer se njima povećava raznolikost opskrbe, uključujući i u susjednim zemljama Unije, koje su počele razvijati proizvodnju.
Therefore, the average value would be too high as compared to the average value of Chinese imports in case of no measures, as those imports would represent the ‘normal’ lower priced product mix.
U prilog toj izjavi zaprimljen je podnesak proizvođača koji je povezan s proizvođačem u Uniji i koji se nalazi u bivšoj jugoslavenskoj republici Makedoniji.
After the additional disclosure, Chinese producers claimed that the Commission should not have accepted the evidence submitted by the applicant concerning the quality adjustment because it was allegedly unsubstantiated.
U skladu s tim pretpostavke o izbjegavanju mjera nisu bile potkrijepljene dokazima ili činjenicama i stoga nisu bile uzete u obzir.
Furthermore, they submitted that within the framework of an expiry review the Commission is bound to use the same methodology that was applied in the original case and should have therefore continued to apply the quality adjustment that was applied in the original investigation.
Cijene uvoza iz predmetne zemlje i sniženje cijena
The Commission considered and took into account all comments submitted after disclosure and additional disclosure, as appropriate.
Komisija je isto tako utvrdila kretanje cijena kineskog uvoza na temelju baze podataka iz članka 14. stavka 6.
Regarding the comments submitted by the applicant, the Commission accepted the first set of comments, related to the quality adjustment.
Prosječna cijena uvoza u Uniju iz predmetne zemlje razvijala se kako slijedi:
Indeed, the Commission considered that the applicant duly substantiated its claim that there was evidence that Chinese producers had improved the quality of their products and that, therefore, in the context of this expiry review, it was no longer warranted to make the same quality adjustment that was made in the original investigation.
Tablica 3.
In this respect, the applicant, in its comments subsequent to the disclosure, provided relevant details on Chinese offers and quality claims, as they appear on the websites of Chinese producers of the product concerned, and also submitted information on important mergers amongst Chinese manufacturers aimed at improving their performance, strong State support for the open mesh industry for improving the quality, improvement of the production machinery at several key producers, the improvement of the quality of the main raw material used, and an increased focus on product quality management in the Chinese industry concerned.All these developments would thus result in a major improvement in Chinese open mesh quality, as a result of which Chinese producers currently produce the product concerned at a level that complies with the same quality standards as Union producers concerning such parameters as tensile strength after alkaline exposure (as tested according to ETAG004), machine and cross-machine direction and elongation.
Uvozne cijene
In the absence of cooperation from Chinese exporting producers and of any evidence to the contrary submitted by them, and since the Commission was not able to retrieve evidence to the contrary itself, it was established that the quality of the Chinese products substantially improved overall, and that those improvements are likely to also characterise future exports to the Union.
Kineske uvozne cijene (EUR/kvadratni metar)
In the original investigation, the adjustment was partly based on the information available to the Commission, obtained from cooperating exporting producers.
Tijekom razmatranog razdoblja prosječne uvozne cijene ukupno su se povećale za 53 % i dosegnule iznos od 0,23 EUR po kvadratnom metru u razdoblju ispitnog postupka revizije.
In this expiry review investigation, the Chinese producers did not reply to any questionnaires and therefore did not submit any relevant verifiable information that would have been able to call the applicant's claim into question or rebut the above findings.
Budući da nijedan kineski proizvođač izvoznik koji je predmet ove revizije nije surađivao, Komisija je utvrdila sniženje cijena tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije usporedbom ponderirane prosječne prodajne cijene proizvođača iz Unije u uzorku koja je naplaćena nezavisnim kupcima na tržištu Unije, prilagođene na razinu franko tvornica, s prosječnom kineskom izvoznom cijenom na temelju baze podataka iz članka 14. stavka 6. na razini CIF, uz odgovarajuće prilagodbe za carine i troškove nakon uvoza.
This forced the Commission to make a finding on the basis of the information available to it.
Usporedbom se pokazalo da tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije nije bilo sniženja cijena.
Accordingly, and due to this lack of cooperation and provision of data pointing to the contrary, the Commission was not able to determine, on the basis of a comparison between the quality of the imports from China and the quality of the like product produced and sold by the Union industry, as substantiated, during the review investigation period, whether a quality adjustment continued to be needed.
Međutim, ako se ne uzme u obzir antidampinška pristojba, cijene industrije Unije snižene su kineskim uvozom u prosjeku za 22,5 %.
Finally, the Commission points out that even in their comments to the additional disclosure, the Chinese producers did not provide any substantiated evidence that the applicant's claim that no quality adjustment was anymore warranted was wrong.
U početnom ispitnom postupku za kineske uvozne cijene provedena je prilagodba za kvalitetu.
The Commission, therefore, accepted the first set of comments made by the applicant and rejected the claims made by the Chinese exporters and concluded that there was no longer any basis for applying the quality adjustment in the undercutting calculations.
U fazi objave i zbog toga što u tom pogledu nisu iznesene nikakve tvrdnje Komisija je u početku primijenila istu prilagodbu u ispitnom postupku revizije kao i u početnom ispitnom postupku.
As regards the second set of comments submitted by the applicant, the Commission did not accept the applicant's claims, since they were not supported by substantiated evidence.
Međutim, nakon objave podnositelj zahtjeva dostavio je dvije skupine primjedbi, i to o prilagodbama za kvalitetu i o relevantnim uvoznim cijenama.
Despite the fact that these claims were rejected, the Commission nevertheless concluded that the 22,5 % undercutting margin (calculated as set out in recital 96 above) remained substantial.
U pogledu prve skupine primjedbi podnositelj zahtjeva naveo je da su od početnog ispitnog postupka kineski proizvođači poboljšali kvalitetu svojih proizvoda i dokazao da najveći kineski proizvođači trenutačno poštuju zahtjeve u pogledu kvalitete za sva glavna područja primjene.
In addition, the Commission pointed out that not making a quality adjustment in the expiry review is not a change in methodology compared to the original investigation.
Kako je utvrđeno u uvodnim izjavama od 101. do 103. u nastavku, na temelju dokaza koje je dostavio podnositelj zahtjeva i s obzirom na to da nisu postojali potkrijepljeni dokazi koji bi upućivali na suprotno, Komisija je odlučila da u ovoj reviziji neće primijeniti prilagodbu za kvalitetu.
The need for the quality adjustment was assessed in the original investigation in view of circumstances that prevailed at that time and to ensure a comparison of the product concerned with that produced in the Union at the same level of trade.
U pogledu druge skupine primjedbi podnositelj zahtjeva nakon objave nadalje je tvrdio da kineske uvozne cijene koje su bile upotrijebljene za tu usporedbu cijena ne bi bile reprezentativne s obzirom na relativno maleni obujam.
However, in light of the new evidence submitted, this adjustment required re-assessment.
Podnositelj zahtjeva naveo je, s obzirom na taj mali obujam i visoku antidampinšku pristojbu, da su se tijekom razdoblja ispitnog postupka revizije iz Kine uvozili proizvodi vrlo visoke kvalitete za opskrbu malih tržišnih niša.
As mentioned in recitals 101 to 103, the evidence provided by the applicant pointed towards competition at the same level of trade that did not require the application of a quality adjustment on the part of the product concerned.
Stoga bi prosječna vrijednost bila previsoka u usporedbi s prosječnom vrijednošću kineskog uvoza kad ne bi bilo mjera jer bi taj uvoz činio „uobičajenu” ponudu proizvoda niže cijene.
On the basis of the evidence available to it, the Commission, accordingly, concluded that the circumstances of the present case did not justify such an adjustment anymore.
Nakon dodatne objave kineski proizvođači tvrdili su da Komisija nije trebala prihvatiti dokaze koje je podnositelj zahtjeva dostavio u pogledu prilagodbe za kvalitetu jer oni navodno nisu bili potkrijepljeni.
Finally, regarding the claim of Chinese producers that the Commission should have continued to apply the quality adjustment that was applied in the original investigation, it should be pointed out that the case law [14] referred to by Chinese exporters in their submission concerns a change in the methodology for calculating the dumping margin when comparing the export price and the normal value pursuant to Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation (i.e. the investigating authority used the ‘input method’ in the initial investigation and the ‘residual method’ in the review).
Nadalje, naveli su da je u okviru revizije zbog predstojećeg isteka mjera Komisija obvezna primjenjivati istu metodologiju koju je primijenila u početnom predmetu te je zbog toga trebala nastaviti primjenjivati prilagodbu za kvalitetu koju je primijenila u početnom ispitnom postupku.
Therefore, the situation differs substantially from the case at hand in which the Commission did not change the methodology compared to the original investigation.
Komisija je na odgovarajući način razmotrila i uzela u obzir sve primjedbe dostavljene nakon objave i dodatne objave.
Rather, it duly took account of the changed circumstances between the original investigation and the review which no longer justified the application of a quality adjustment.
Kada je riječ o primjedbama koje je dostavio podnositelj zahtjeva, Komisija je prihvatila prvu skupinu primjedbi, koja se odnosi na prilagodbu za kvalitetu.
Accordingly, the Commission rejected the claims made by the Chinese producers mentioned in recital 99 and confirmed its decision not to apply the quality adjustment in this review.
Komisija je doista smatrala da je podnositelj zahtjeva propisno potkrijepio svoju tvrdnju da postoje dokazi da su kineski proizvođači poboljšali kvalitetu svojih proizvoda i da, stoga, u kontekstu ove revizije zbog predstojećeg isteka mjera, više nije opravdano primjenjivati istu prilagodbu za kvalitetu kao u početnom ispitnom postupku.
