In accordance with Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether the material injury suffered by the Community industry had been caused by the dumped imports from the countries concerned.
V skladu s členom 3(6) osnovne uredbe je bilo preučeno, ali je materialno škodo industriji Skupnosti povzročil dampinški uvoz iz zadevnih držav.
In accordance with Article 3(7) of the basic Regulation, the Commission also examined other factors which might have injured the Community industry in order to ensure that any injury caused by those factors was not wrongly attributed to the dumped imports.
V skladu s členom 3(7) osnovne uredbe je Komisija preučila tudi druge dejavnike, ki bi lahko škodovali industriji Skupnosti, da bi zagotovila, da kakršna koli škoda, ki bi jo povzročili ti dejavniki, ne bi bila napačno pripisana dampinškemu uvozu.
The volume of TCCA originating in the countries concerned increased dramatically during the period considered.
Obseg TCCA s poreklom iz zadevnih držav se je v tem zadevnem obdobju znatno povečal.
As can be seen in the table under recital 109, the imports concerned were, in the IPs, 3 times as high as in 2000, i.e. an increase from 8200 tonnes in 2000 to around 25000 tonnes in the IPs.
Kot je razvidno iz preglednice iz uvodne izjave 109, je bil zadevni uvoz v obdobjih preiskave trikrat večji kot leta 2000, t.j. zrasel je iz 8200 ton leta 2000 na okoli 25000 ton v obdobjih preiskave.
During the same period of time, their market share significantly increased by 27 percentage points i.e. from 33 % to 60 %.
V enakem časovnem obdobju je njihov tržni delež znatno narasel za 27 odstotnih točk, t.j. iz 33 % na 60 %.
The most important increase in volume took place between 2000 and 2001 when they increased almost by 60 %.
Najpomembnejše povečanje obsega uvoza se je zgodilo med letoma 2000 in 2001, ko je uvoz narasel za skoraj 60 %.
The substantial increase in the volume of imports originating in the countries concerned and their prices which constantly decreased since 2001 and which remained well below those of the Community industry, coincided in time with the deterioration of the situation of the Community industry during the very same period.
Znatno povečanje uvoza izdelkov s poreklom iz zadevnih držav in cen izdelkov, ki so od leta 2001 stalno padale in ki so ostale precej pod cenami industrije Skupnosti, je časovno sovpadalo s poslabšanjem stanja industrije Skupnosti v istem obdobju.
Indeed, (see recitals 115 and 116 above), the imports concerned, which were made in very substantial quantities, undercut the average sales price of the Community industry with significant amounts i.e. around 36,6 %.
Dejansko (glej uvodni izjavi 115 in 116 zgoraj) je zadevni uvoz, ki je bil opravljen v zelo velikih količinah, z večjimi zneski zbil povprečno prodajno ceno industrije Skupnosti, t.j. za okoli 36,6 %.
It is therefore provisionally concluded that the pressure exerted by the imports concerned, which significantly increased their volume and market share from 2000 onwards, and which were made at low dumped prices, played a determining role in causing price decreases and loss of market shares for the Community industry and, as a consequence, a deterioration of its financial situation.
Zato je začasno sklenjeno, da je pritisk, ki ga kaže zadevni uvoz, ki je od leta 2000 dalje znatno povečal obseg uvoza in tržni delež, in je potekal po nizkih dampinških cenah, igral odločilno vlogo pri povzročitvi padanja cen in izgube tržnega deleža industrije Skupnosti in, kot posledica tega, poslabšanja finančnega stanja.
Between 2000 and the IPs, the Community consumption increased by more than 70 %.
Med letom 2000 in obdobjema preiskave je poraba Skupnosti narasla za več kot 70 %.
The development of consumption thus has not contributed to the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Razvoj porabe tako ni pripomogel k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
To the contrary, under normal market conditions, the Community industry could have expected an increase in its sales volumes.
Nasprotno, pod normalnimi tržnimi pogoji bi lahko industrija Komisije pričakovala povečanje obsega prodaje.
The imports from third countries not concerned by this investigation showed the following development during the period considered:
Uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav, ki jih ta preiskava ne zadeva, je v zadevnem obdobju pokazal naslednji razvoj:
Imports from third countries other than the countries concerned (in kg)
Uvoz iz tretjih držav, ki niso zadevne države (v kg)
The main exporting country not concerned by these investigations is Japan.
Glavna država izvoznica, ki je ta preiskava ne zadeva, je Japonska.
Imports from Japan continuously decreased between 2000 and the IPs to reach a 5 % market share in the IPs.
Uvoz iz Japonske je med letom 2000 in obdobjema preiskave stalno padal, dokler ni v obdobjih preiskave dosegel 5 % tržni delež.
There is no reason to believe that Japanese prices have had a downward effect on the prices of the Community industry.
Nobenega razloga ni za domnevo, da so japonske cene povzročile padec cen industrije Skupnosti.
Evolution of the currencies: USD versus EUR
Razvoj valut: USD proti EUR
Some interested parties argued that the price evolution of the imports concerned was influenced by the evolution of the Euro vis-à-vis the US dollar and the Yuan Renminbi (pegged to the USD).
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so ugovarjale, da je na razvoj cen zadevnega uvoza vplival razvoj eura nasproti ameriškemu dolarju in renminbiju (fiksiran na USD).
It is true that between 2001 and the IP-US, the US dollar continuously depreciated, i.e. from 1,12 EUR to 0,84 EUR or - 25 %.
Res je, da se je med letom 2001 in OP-ZDA ameriški dolar stalno amortiziral, t.j. od 1,12 EUR do 0,84 EUR ali -25 %.
However, it should be noted that the USD price of the imports concerned also decreased i.e. by 28 % between 2000 and 2003.
Vendar pa je treba vedeti, da je med letoma 2000 in 2003 cena zadevnega uvoza v USD tudi padla, t.j. za 28 %.
More specifically, the Chinese unit export prices in USD decreased by 11 % between 2000 and the IP-PRC, and the American unit export price in USD decreased by 21 % between 2000 and the IP-US.
Natančneje, kitajska izvozna cena na enoto v USD je med letom 2000 in OP-LRK padla za 11 %, ameriška izvozna cena na enoto v USD pa je med letom 2000 in OP-ZDA padla za 21 %.
Therefore, the price decrease of the exports concerned cannot be fully explained by the currency fluctuations since the decrease is also significant in USD.
Zato padca cen zadevnega izvoza ni mogoče v celoti razložiti z nihanji tečajev, saj je padec znaten tudi v USD.

Moreover, it is noteworthy that the evolution of the currencies did not have the same effect on the two countries concerned.
Poleg tega je treba omeniti, da razvoj valut ni imel enakega učinka na ti dve zadevni državi.
Whereas the volume of imports from the USA has decreased between 2000 and 2003, imports from the PRC have more than sextupled throughout this period.
Medtem ko se je obseg uvoza iz ZDA med letoma 2000 in 2003 zmanjšal, se je uvoz iz LRK v tem obdobju povečal za več kot šestkrat.
The fact that currency fluctuations did not have the same effect on both countries and did neither have an effect on imports from other countries, indicates that it cannot be considered as a causal factor for the surge of dumped imports from the PRC as argued by interested parties.
Dejstvo, da nihanja tečaja niso imela enakega učinka na obe državi in prav tako niso imela učinka na uvoz iz drugih držav, kaže, da jih ne moremo šteti kot vzročni dejavnik za val dampinškega uvoza iz LRK, kot trdijo zainteresirane stranke.
As a consequence of the above, although the evolution of the Euro vis-à-vis the US dollar may have had an impact on the price of exports concerned, this impact was certainly not such as to break the causal link between the dumping and the injury.
Kot posledica zgoraj navedenega, čeprav je razvoj eura nasproti ameriškemu dolarju mogoče vplival na ceno zadevnega izvoza, ta vpliv gotovo ni bil takšen, da bi prekinil vzročno povezavo med dampingom in škodo.
Maturation of the TCCA market
Zorenje trga TCCA
One interested party claimed that the price decrease of the product concerned is due to the life cycle of the product which developed into a commodity product.
Ena zainteresirana stranka je trdila, da je vzrok za padec cene zadevnega izdelka življenjski cikel izdelka, ki se je razvil v blagovni izdelek.
It argued that, in parallel with the swimming pool market which is booming in the EC, the TCCA market became mature and that this product is now widely sold through supermarkets with a decreasing effect on prices.
Trdila je, da je vzporedno s trgom plavalnih bazenov, ki v ES doživlja razcvet, trg TCCA dozorel in se zdaj ta izdelek obširno prodaja preko veleblagovnic z vedno manjšim učinkom na cene.
While the product itself may have reached some level of maturation, this cannot be said for the relevant market.
Medtem ko je sam izdelek mogoče dosegel neko stopnjo zrelosti, tega ne moremo reči za ta zadevni trg.
On the contrary, the TCCA market developed in a very dynamic way.
Nasprotno, trg TCCA se je razvil na zelo dinamičen način.
However, at the level of imports concerned – both in terms of prices and quantities – the development was not even dynamic, but abrupt.
Vendar pa na ravni zadevnega uvoza – tako kar zadeva cene kot količine – razvoj ni bil enakomerno dinamičen, temveč skokovit.
It should also be noted that the demand for TCCA is determined by the number of swimming pools installed and that, therefore, TCCA is an accessory.
Treba je tudi vedeti, da je potreba po TCCA določena s številom postavljenih plavalnih bazenov in da je zato TCCA vzporeden pojav.
On the basis of the foregoing, the claim that the current injury is the effect of the maturity of the product concerned cannot be accepted.
Na podlagi prej navedenega ni mogoče sprejeti trditve, da je trenutna škoda učinek zrelosti zadevnega izdelka.
Investment in capacity
Naložba v zmogljivost
One processor argued that the Community industry misjudged the market development by investing in new capacity and thus worsened its financial results by increasing depreciation charges and thus cost of production.
En predelovalec je trdil, da je industrija Skupnosti napačno presodila razvoj trga z investiranjem v nove zmogljivosti in tako poslabšala svoje finančne rezultate s povečanjem amortizacijskih stroškov in s tem stroškov proizvodnje.
First of all, it should be noted that the Community consumption increased by more than 70 % between 2000 and the IPs and that the Community industry's capacity increased by only 16 % over the same period.
Najprej je treba vedeti, da je poraba Skupnosti med letom 2000 in obdobjema preiskave narasla za več kot 70 % in da je zmogljivost Skupnosti v istem obdobju narasla samo za 16 %.
Such investments are therefore reasonable and in line with the expected market evolution.
Takšne naložbe so torej primerne in v skladu s pričakovanim razvojem trga.
In addition, as mentioned in recital 125, the cost of production of the Community industry remained, in the IPs, at the same level as in 2000, which shows that any cost increase due to investments have been offset with other cost reductions and gains in efficiency.
Poleg tega, kot je omenjeno v uvodni izjavi 125, so stroški proizvodnje industrije Skupnosti v obdobjih preiskave ostali na isti ravni kot leta 2000, kar kaže na to, da se je kakršno koli povečanje stroškov zaradi naložb izravnalo z drugimi zniževanji stroškov in izboljševanjem učinkovitosti.
Influence of one other European producer
Vpliv enega izmed drugih evropskih proizvajalcev
Several interested parties that co-operated in the Chinese investigation argued that one of the other European producers would have been the first to reduce its prices on the Community market in order to gain market share.
Nekaj zainteresiranih strank, ki so sodelovale pri kitajski preiskavi, je trdilo, da je eden izmed ostalih evropskih proizvajalcev prvi znižal svoje cene na trgu Skupnosti, da bi pridobil tržni delež.
However, it was found that this further European producer which was not part of the Community industry, always charged between 2000 and the IP higher prices than the Chinese imports.
Vendar pa je bilo ugotovljeno, da je ta dodatni evropski proizvajalec, ki ni bil del industrije Skupnosti, med letom 2000 in obdobjem preiskave vedno zaračunal višje cene od kitajskega uvoza.
Its prices continuously increased between 2000 and 2002 and then, started to decrease only between 2002 and 2003, at a time when the Chinese sales prices had already decreased by 30 % during the same period.
Njegove cene so med letoma 2000 in 2002 neprekinjeno naraščale in nato začele padati šele med letoma 2002 in 2003, v času, ko so kitajske prodajne cene v istem obdobju že padle za 30 %.
Conclusion of Causation
Sklenitev vzrokov škode
On the basis of the above, it is provisionally concluded that there is a causal link between dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Community industry.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega se začasno zaključi, da obstaja vzročna povezava med dampinškim uvozom in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
This conclusion is based, on the one hand, on the significant increases in volumes and market shares of the imports concerned, accompanied by a significant price decrease and substantial price undercutting, and, on the other the decrease in prices of the Community industry, the loss of market share and the consequent worsening financial situation.
Ta zaključek na eni strani temelji na znatnem povečanju obsega in tržnih deležev zadevnega uvoza, ki ga spremljata znaten padec cen in veliko nelojalno nižanje cen, na drugi pa na padcu cen v industriji Skupnosti, izgubi tržnega deleža in posledičnem poslabšanju finančnega stanja.
All these developments coincided in time.
Vsi ti razvoji so časovno sovpadali.
None of the other factors examined could have explained the deteriorating situation of the Community industry.
Nobeden izmed drugih preučenih dejavnikov ne bi mogel pojasniti poslabšanja stanja industrije Skupnosti.
General considerations
Splošni opis
It has been examined whether compelling reasons exist that could lead to the conclusion that it would not be in the Community interest to introduce anti-dumping duties against imports from the countries concerned.
Preverjeno je bilo, ali obstajajo tehtni razlogi, ki bi vodili k zaključku, da uvedba veljavnih protidampinških ukrepov proti uvozu iz zadevnih držav ni v interesu Skupnosti.
For this purpose and in accordance with Article 21(1) of the basic Regulation, the determination of Community interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, i.e. those of the Community industry, the importers/traders as well as the users of the product concerned.
V ta namen in v skladu s členom 21(1) osnovne uredbe je določitev interesa Skupnosti temeljila na presoji vseh različnih vpletenih interesov oz. tistih, ki zadevajo industrijo Skupnosti, uvoznike/trgovce, kot tudi uporabnike zadevnega izdelka.
In order to assess the likely impact of the imposition or non-imposition of measures, information was requested from all interested parties.
Da bi se ocenil možen vpliv uvedbe ali neuvedbe ukrepov, so bile vse zainteresirane strani zaprošene za podatke.
Questionnaires were sent to the three Community producers, 9 importers, 17 processors and 11 associations belonging to the downstream industry (processors/users).
Vprašalniki so bili poslani trem proizvajalcem Skupnosti, 9 uvoznikom, 17 predelovalcem in 11 združenjem, ki spadajo v nadaljnjo industrijo (predelovalci/uporabniki).
Complete questionnaire replies were received from one Community producer (the complainant), 1 importer and 10 processors.
Komisija je prejela izpolnjene vprašalnike od enega proizvajalca Skupnosti (pritožnik), enega uvoznika in 10 predelovalcev.
In addition, as mentioned under recital 97 the two other Community producers provided general information only in the framework of the proceeding regarding the PRC.
Poleg tega, kot je omenjeno v uvodni izjavi 97, sta dva druga proizvajalca Skupnosti predložila splošne informacije samo v okviru postopka v zvezi z LRK.
Among the co-operating processors 2 were in favour of the measures, one said it would have no impact for it while the other co-operating processors as the co-operating importer were against measures.
Med sodelujočimi predelovalci sta 2 odobravala ukrepe, en je trdil, da to ne bi imelo nikakršnega učinka, tako drugi sodelujoči predelovalci kot sodelujoči uvoznik pa so ukrepom nasprotovali.
Moreover, hearings have been held with some of the parties mentioned above.
Poleg tega so bila izvedena zaslišanja z nekaterimi izmed zgoraj navedenih strank.
Interest of the Community industry and other producers in the Community
Interes industrije Skupnosti in drugih proizvajalcev v Skupnosti
In view of the conclusions on the situation of the Community industry set out at recital 134, especially in terms of market share, sales price and decreasing profitability, it is considered that, in the absence of measures against injurious dumping, the Community industry is likely to experience a worsening of its financial situation.
Glede na zaključke glede stanja industrije Skupnosti iz uvodne izjave 134, zlasti v smislu tržnega deleža, prodajne cene in padajoče donosnosti, se razume, da se bo v industriji Skupnosti, v odsotnosti ukrepov proti škodljivemu dampingu, verjetno poslabšalo finančno stanje.
Indeed, it is most likely that the production in the Community will decrease and that the processors and consumers will be significantly dependant on imports.
Proizvodnja v Skupnosti bo verjetno padla in predelovalci in potrošniki bodo v znatni meri odvisni od uvoza.
The same negative development can reasonably be expected to happen for the two other producers in the Community.
Enak negativen razvoj je upravičeno pričakovati za dva druga proizvajalca v Skupnosti.
Interest of importers
Interes uvoznikov
While 9 questionnaires were sent to importers, only one questionnaire reply was received.
Medtem ko je bilo 9 vprašalnikov poslanih uvoznikom, je bil prejet le en odgovor na vprašalnik.
However, this importer was not able to provide precise information regarding the profitability of its sales of the product concerned.
Vendar pa ta uvoznik ni mogel zagotoviti natančnih informacij v zvezi z donosnostjo svoje prodaje zadevnega izdelka.
Therefore, it has not been possible to assess the likely effect of the proposed anti-dumping measures on the profitability of the co-operating importer.
Zato ni bilo mogoče oceniti verjetnega učinka predlaganih protidampinških ukrepov na donosnost sodelujočega uvoznika.
Nevertheless, this company had no significant investment directly related to the product concerned and its sales of the product concerned represent less than 1 % of the total turnover.
Vseeno to podjetje ni imelo pomembnih naložb, neposredno povezanih z zadevnim izdelkom, in njegova prodaja zadevnega izdelka predstavlja manj kot 1 % skupnega prometa.
On the basis of the above, and given the large number of importers not cooperating in the proceeding, it is provisionally concluded that anti-dumping measures will not have such a negative impact on importers as a whole as to outweigh the need to eliminate the trade distorting effects of injurious dumping and to restore effective competition.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega in glede na veliko število uvoznikov, ki ne sodelujejo v postopku, se začasno zaključi, da v celoti gledano protidampinški ukrepi ne bodo imeli takšnega negativnega vpliva na uvoznike, ki bi prevladal nad potrebo po odpravi učinkov izkrivljanja trgovine škodljivega dampinga in ponovni vzpostavitvi učinkovite konkurence na trgu.
Interest of processors
Interes predelovalcev
The processing sector is composed of numerous companies which can be involved in the transformation of TCCA granules into tablets and/or in the repacking and the distribution of the product concerned.
Predelovalni sektor sestavljajo številna podjetja, ki so lahko vpletena v menjavo oblike TCCA iz zrn v tablete in/ali prepakiranje in prodajo zadevnega izdelka.
A major claim against the imposition of measures is that the capacity of European producers is not sufficient to fulfil the Community demand.
Glavni zahtevek proti uvedbi ukrepov je, da zmogljivost evropskih proizvajalcev ni zadostna, da bi zadovoljevala potrebe Skupnosti.
It is recalled that, the imposition of anti-dumping duties is not intended to close this market to the countries concerned but to restore fair trade conditions and effective competition on the Community market.
Uvedba protidampinških dajatev ni namenjena zaprtju tega trga zadevnim državam, temveč ponovni vzpostavitvi poštenih pogojev trgovanja in učinkovite konkurence na trgu Skupnosti.
In that sense, imports concerned would continue to be present on the Community market, but at prices which are no longer injuriously dumped.
V tem smislu bi bil zadevni uvoz še naprej prisoten na trgu Skupnosti, vendar po cenah, ki niso več škodljivo dampinške.
Moreover, imports from third countries not subject to measures are likely to gain importance once injurious dumping from the countries concerned no longer takes place.
Poleg tega bi lahko uvoz iz tretjih držav, ki ni predmet ukrepov, pridobil na pomenu, ko škodljivega dampinga iz zadevnih držav ne bi bilo več.
It should be also noted that one of the European producers has a new factory which did not start the production because of the low price level on the Community market.
Treba je tudi vedeti, da ima eden izmed evropskih proizvajalcev novo tovarno, ki zaradi nizke ravni cen na trgu Skupnosti ni začela s proizvodnjo.
Should effective competition be restored, it is likely that production will start and that supply will increase on the Community market.
Če se znova uvede učinkovita konkurenca, je možno, da se bo proizvodnja začela in se bo povečala ponudba na trgu Skupnosti.
Finally, it is noteworthy that on the one hand, processors argued that the capacity is insufficient to fulfil the Community demand, and on the other hand, blamed the Community industry for having invested in new capacity that would have allegedly been a cause of injury.
Nazadnje je treba omeniti, da so na eni strani predelovalci trdili, da je zmogljivost premajhna za zadovoljevanje potreb Skupnosti, na drugi strani pa so krivili industrijo Skupnosti, da je vlagala v nove zmogljivosti, ki bi domnevno lahko bile vzrok škode.
On this basis, it is provisionally concluded that a risk of supply shortage does not exist.
Na tej podlagi se začasno zaključi, da tveganje nezadostne dobave ne obstaja.
On the contrary, should the Community industry be put in a precarious situation and eventually close production facilities in the Community, users would be deprived of an important source of supply, which ensures rapid service and delivery time especially during the peak season.
Nasprotno, če bi se Skupnost znašla v negotovem stanju in bi kasneje zaprla proizvodne zmogljivosti v Skupnosti, bi bil uporabnikom odvzet pomemben vir dobave, ki zagotavlja hitre storitve in dostavni čas, zlasti na vrhuncu sezone.
Co-operating processors also argued that any anti-dumping duties will negatively affect their cost of production and margin.
Sodelujoči predelovalci so trdili tudi, da bodo vse protidampinške dajatve negativno vplivale na njihove stroške proizvodnje in stopnjo dampinga.
