The investigation of dumping and injury covered the period from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2007 (the investigation period or the ‘IP’).
Preiskava dampinga in škode je zajela obdobje od 1. januarja 2007 do 31. decembra 2007 („obdobje preiskave“ ali „OP“).
The examination of trends relevant for the assessment of injury covered the period from 2004 to the end of the IP (‘period considered’).
Preverjanje trendov, pomembnih za določitev škode, je zajelo obdobje od leta 2004 do konca OP („obravnavano obdobje“).
The product concerned is certain candles, tapers and the like, other than memory lights and other outdoor burners, exported to the Community and originating in the PRC (candles).
Zadevni izdelek so nekatere sveče, svečke in podobno, razen nagrobnih sveč in drugih zunanjih svetil na gorivo, izvožene v Skupnost in s poreklom iz LRK (sveče).
The production process to manufacture candles is rather simple and consists in heating raw materials (mainly paraffin wax and stearin) and shaping the candle in moulds or containers in a cooling process.
Proizvodni postopek za izdelavo sveč je precej preprost in vključuje segrevanje surovin (predvsem parafinskega voska in stearina) in oblikovanje sveče v modelih ali posodah med postopkom hlajenja.
Candles produce heat and light but are largely used for interior decoration purposes, e.g. in various candle holders, pillars and other decoration items.
Sveče proizvajajo toploto in svetlobo, vendar se pogosto uporabljajo kot notranji okras, npr. v različnih svečnikih, podstavkih in drugih okrasnih predmetih.
Candles are normally declared within CN codes ex34060011, ex34060019 and ex34060090.
Sveče so običajno uvrščene pod oznake KN 34060011, 34060019 in 34060090.
Memory lights and other outdoor burners are not part of the product concerned.
Zadevni izdelek ne vključuje nagrobnih sveč in drugih zunanjih svetil na gorivo.
These can be defined as products, the fuel of which contains more than 500 ppm of toluene and/or more than 100 ppm of benzene and/or have a wick with a diameter of at least 5 millimetres and/or are individually contained in a plastic container with vertical walls of at least 5 cm in height.
Ti so lahko opredeljeni kot izdelki, katerih gorivo vsebuje več kot 500 ppm toluena in/ali več kot 100 ppm benzena in/ali imajo stenj s premerom vsaj 5 milimetrov in/ali se posamično nahajajo v plastični posodi s pokončnimi stenami, ki merijo vsaj 5 cm v višino.
It was considered that these criteria are setting a clear dividing line between the types of candles which are covered by this investigation and those which are not.
Štelo se je, da ta merila jasno ločujejo vrste sveč, ki jih ta preiskava zajema, od vrst, ki jih ne.
The investigation showed that there is a large number of different types of candles such as tapered candles, tea lights, as well as many other seasonal and special types produced in the PRC and sold on the Community market.
Preiskava je pokazala, da obstaja veliko različnih vrst sveč, kot so koničaste sveče, čajne svečke, in veliko drugih sezonskih sveč in posebnih vrst sveč, ki se proizvajajo v LRK in prodajajo na trgu Skupnosti.
The various types of candles can basically differ in size, shape, colour, perfumed or un-perfumed, etc, but all these types share the same basic chemical and technical characteristics and uses and they are to a large extent interchangeable.
Različne vrste sveč se lahko razlikujejo glede na velikost, obliko, barvo, lahko so odišavljene ali neodišavljene itd., vendar imajo vse enake kemijske in tehnične značilnosti in namene uporabe ter so večinoma zamenljive.
Therefore, it is considered that all candles covered by the present investigation are part of the same product family.
Zato se šteje, da vse sveče, ki jih zajema sedanja preiskava, spadajo v isto skupino izdelkov.
Certain interested parties made submissions and claims concerning the definition of the product concerned.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so predložile stališča in zahtevke v zvezi z opredelitvijo zadevnega izdelka.
It has been claimed that memory lights and outdoor candles have been unduly excluded from the product scope because the Community industry dominates this segment and because the technical criteria mentioned above in recital (17) are not unique in the sense that memory lights and other outdoor burners do not always exceed the above-mentioned characteristics.
Trdile so, da so nagrobne sveče in zunanja svetila na gorivo neutemeljeno izključeni iz obsega izdelkov, ker industrija Skupnosti prevladuje na tem področju in ker tehnična merila, navedena v uvodni izjavi (16), niso enotna, saj nagrobne sveče in druga zunanja svetila na gorivo ne presegajo vedno zgoraj navedenih značilnosti.
Moreover, they claimed that the distinction made between candles and memory lights and other outdoor burners was not supported by any standard or norms in the industry and was contradicting the assumption that tea lights and other candles were both included in the definition of the product concerned.
Poleg tega so trdile, da razlikovanje med svečami ter nagrobnimi svečami in drugimi zunanjimi svetili na gorivo ne temelji na nobenem standardu ali normativih industrije in je v nasprotju z domnevo, da so čajne svečke in druge sveče vključene v opredelitev zadevnega izdelka.
Other parties claimed that the production processes and the range of products produced in the PRC as well as the types of candles exported to the Community were very specific.
Druge stranke so trdile, da so proizvodni postopki, obseg izdelkov, ki se proizvajajo v LRK, in vrste sveč, ki se izvozijo v Skupnost, zelo tipični.
In this context it was stated that in many instances exporters in the PRC export the product concerned together with other accessories such as glass cup and/or pillar candles whereby the export value includes all the items and not only candles.
V zvezi s tem je bilo navedeno, da izvozniki iz LRK pogosto izvozijo zadevni izdelek skupaj z drugimi dodatki, kot so steklena posoda in/ali top-sveče, pri čemer izvozna vrednost vključuje vse dele in ne le sveč.
All these types should be excluded from the scope of the investigation.
Vse te vrste bi bilo treba izključiti iz preiskave.
It was also claimed that exporting producers in the PRC are producing to a large extent handmade or special candles with further refining operations, such as printing, scratching and lacquering.
Poleg tega se je utemeljevalo, da proizvajalci izvozniki iz LRK pogosto proizvajajo ročno izdelane ali posebne sveče z dodatnimi postopki obdelave, kot so tiskanje, strganje in lakiranje.
These are labour intensive types, called ‘fancy’ or ‘special’ candles, not manufactured in the Community.
Te vrste so delovno intenzivne, t.i. „izbrane“ ali „posebne“ sveče, ki se ne proizvajajo v Skupnosti.
Accordingly these parties claimed that the special candles should also be excluded from the product scope of this investigation.
Glede na to so te stranke trdile, da je treba iz obsega izdelkov te preiskave izključiti tudi posebne sveče.
It should be noted that the above claims were not specific and did not include any supporting evidence showing that the product concerned was not correctly defined in the notice of initiation.
Opozoriti je treba, da zgornje navedbe niso bile točno določene in niso vključevale ustreznih dokazov, da zadevni izdelek ni bil pravilno opredeljen v obvestilu o začetku.
In fact, as stated above, it was found that all types of the product concerned share the same basic chemical and technical characteristics and uses and they are to a large extent interchangeable.
Dejansko je bilo v skladu z zgornjimi navedbami ugotovljeno, da imajo vse vrste zadevnega izdelka enake osnovne kemijske in tehnične značilnosti in namene uporabe ter so večinoma zamenljive.
Concerning the claims made on memory lights and outdoor candles, it is noted that these products can be distinguished from other types of candles on the basis of the technical and chemical criteria mentioned in recital (17) above.
V zvezi z navedbami o nagrobnih svečah in zunanjih svetilih na gorivo je ugotovljeno, da je možno te izdelke razlikovati od drugih vrst sveč na podlagi tehničnih in kemijskih meril iz uvodne izjave (16) zgoraj.
The fact that on the one hand the Community producers may be dominant in this particular segment or on the other hand any allegation that the Community producers are not manufacturing certain types of the product concerned is irrelevant and does not alter the definition of the product concerned.
Dejstvo, da po eni strani proizvajalci Skupnosti morda prevladujejo na zadevnem posebnem področju ali da se po drugi strani domneva, da proizvajalci Skupnosti ne izdelujejo nekaterih vrst zadevnega izdelka, ni pomembno in ne spremeni opredelitve zadevnega izdelka.
It should also be noted that the production processes, the variety of product types which are produced and sold in the Community market, the existence or the absence of norms are not per se valid reasons which are demonstrating that the definition of the product concerned should be revised.
Poleg tega je treba opozoriti, da proizvodni postopki, raznolikost vrst izdelkov, ki se proizvajajo in prodajajo na trgu Skupnosti, obstoj ali neobstoj normativov niso sami po sebi utemeljeni razlogi, ki kažejo, da je treba opredelitev zadevnega izdelka spremeniti.
Certain interested parties claimed that the so-called tea light type should be distinguished from other candles because they have different physical characteristics such as the size and the fact the wax is held in a container in order to prevent the wax from overflowing or dripping.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da je treba vrsto tako imenovanih čajnih svečk razlikovati od drugih sveč, ker imajo drugačne fizikalne značilnosti, kot sta velikost in dejstvo, da je vosek v posodi, da se prepreči izlivanje ali kapljanje voska.
Moreover, whilst the main use of candles is to produce light, the main purpose of tea light is to produce heat.
Poleg tega je glavni namen čajne svečke proizvodnja toplote, medtem ko se sveče uporabljajo predvsem za proizvodnjo svetlobe.
Certain interested parties argued that candles produced by the Community industry and sold on the Community market were not alike to the product concerned.
Nekatere zainteresirane stranke so trdile, da sveče, ki jih je industrija Skupnosti proizvedla in prodala na trgu Skupnosti, niso bile podobne zadevnemu izdelku.
They claimed in particular that the product concerned was largely sold in sets including other decoration items such as candle holders, pillars, other ceramic or glass items and that it was not possible to distinguish the value of the candle in the set.
Trdile so zlasti, da se je zadevni izdelek prodajal predvsem v kompletih, ki so vključevali druge okrasne predmete, kot so svečniki, podstavki, drugi keramični ali stekleni predmeti, in da ni bilo mogoče ugotoviti vrednosti sveče v kompletu.
It was also argued that whilst Community producers were only selling standard types of candles, exporting producers in the PRC were selling large volumes of special types of candles which cannot be compared to the standard types.
Poleg tega se je navajalo, da so proizvajalci Skupnosti prodajali le standardne vrste sveč, proizvajalci izvozniki iz LRK pa so prodajali velike količine posebnih vrst sveč, ki niso primerljive s standardnimi vrstami.
Concerning the claim made on the use of certain candles types, it should be noted that during a hearing held in particular with the Association of candles producers in the PRC it was stated that domestic consumption in the PRC is significantly increasing in the last years and that candles sold domestically had the same main use as in the Community, namely interior decoration.
V zvezi z navedbo glede uporabe nekaterih vrst sveč je treba opozoriti, da je bilo med zaslišanjem, na katerem je sodelovalo zlasti Združenje proizvajalcev sveč iz LRK, navedeno, da se domača potrošnja v LRK v zadnjih letih znatno povečuje in da je bil glavni namen uporabe sveč, prodanih na domačem trgu, enak kot v Skupnosti, in sicer so se uporabljale kot notranji okras.
In regard to the alleged difference in uses between candles (light) and tea lights (heat), it was found that these product types are interchangeable and that both types can be used for providing light and heat, but that, as stated in recital (15) above, they are both largely used for interior decoration purposes.
V zvezi z domnevno različno uporabo sveč (svetloba) in čajnih svečk (toplota) je bilo ugotovljeno, da sta ti vrsti izdelkov zamenljivi in da se lahko obe vrsti uporabljata za zagotavljanje svetlobe in toplote, vendar se, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (15) zgoraj, uporabljata predvsem kot notranji okras.
It is also recalled that, as mentioned in recital (18) above, there are various types of candles which basically can differ in size, shape or colour but all these types share the same basic chemical and technical characteristics and uses and they are to a large extent interchangeable.
Poleg tega je treba opozoriti, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (17) zgoraj, da obstajajo različne vrste sveč, ki se lahko razlikujejo glede na velikost, obliko ali barvo, vendar imajo vse enake osnovne kemijske in tehnične značilnosti in namene uporabe ter so večinoma zamenljive.
Therefore it is considered that the candle types covered by the present investigation are part of the same product family.
Zato se šteje, da vrste sveč, ki jih zajema sedanja preiskava, spadajo v isto skupino izdelkov.
The criteria to be applied in the determination of the ‘like product’ are based on the technical and chemical characteristics, as well as the end uses or functions of the product and not on factors such as the shape, scent, colour or other features stated by the interested party.
Merila za določitev „podobnega izdelka“ temeljijo na tehničnih in kemijskih značilnostih in načinih končne uporabe ali funkcijah izdelka in ne na dejavnikih, kot so oblika, vonj, barva ali druge značilnosti, ki jih je navedla zainteresirana stranka.
The differences in terms of size have no incidence on the definition of the product concerned and the like product, as no clear distinction can be made between the products belonging to the same product family in relation to their main basic technical and chemical characteristics, to the end use and to the perception of the users.
Razlike glede velikosti ne vplivajo na opredelitev zadevnega izdelka in podobnega izdelka, saj ni mogoče najti jasnih razlik med izdelki, ki spadajo v isto skupino izdelkov, v zvezi z njihovimi glavnimi osnovnimi tehničnimi in kemijskimi značilnostmi, končno uporabo in zaznavanjem uporabnikov.
In view of the claims made and the evidence provided by interested parties and all other information available at this stage of the investigation, it is considered that no differences were found between the product concerned and candles produced and sold by the exporters/producers on their domestic market and by producers in the Community, which also served as an analogue country for the purpose of establishing the normal value with respect to the PRC.
Glede na navedbe in dokaze, ki so jih predložile zainteresirane stranke, in vse druge dostopne informacije na tej stopnji preiskave se šteje, da niso bile ugotovljene razlike med zadevnim izdelkom in svečami, ki jih proizvajajo in prodajajo izvozniki/proizvajalci na notranjem trgu in proizvajalci v Skupnosti, ki je predstavljala tudi primerljivo državo za določitev normalne vrednosti v zvezi z LRK.
These candles have essentially the same basic technical and chemical characteristics and the same basic use.
Te sveče imajo predvsem enake osnovne tehnične in kemijske značilnosti in enako osnovno uporabo.
It is therefore provisionally concluded that all types of candles are considered to be alike within the meaning of Article 1(4) of the basic Regulation.
Zato se začasno sklene, da se vse vrste sveč obravnavajo kot podobni izdelki v smislu člena 1(4) osnovne uredbe.
At the current stage of the investigation, the Commission has not received sufficient evidence that the physical characteristics and/or end use of tea lights are fundamentally different from those of other candles and should lead to conclude that tea lights and other candles are not part of the same product family.
Na sedanji stopnji preiskave Komisija ni prejela dovolj dokazov, da se fizikalne značilnosti in/ali končna uporaba čajnih svečk bistveno razlikujejo od fizikalnih lastnosti in/ali končne uporabe drugih sveč, zato je treba na njihovi podlagi ugotoviti, da čajne svečke in druge sveče na spadajo v isto skupino izdelkov.
The investigation will further investigate and explore all substantiated claims which may be made on the like product issue.
Med preiskavo bodo dodatno raziskani in preučeni vsi utemeljeni zahtevki, ki se lahko predložijo v zvezi z vprašanjem podobnega izdelka.
In view of the large number of Community producers supporting the complaint, sampling was envisaged in the notice of initiation in accordance with Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na veliko število proizvajalcev Skupnosti, ki podpirajo pritožbo, je bilo v obvestilu o začetku predvideno vzorčenje v skladu s členom 17(1) osnovne uredbe.
On the basis of the analysis of the sampling returns, a sample of five producers was finally selected, based on the largest production volume criterion as foreseen in Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation.
Na podlagi analize izpolnjenih vprašalnikov o vzorčenju je bil na koncu izbran vzorec petih proizvajalcev na podlagi merila največjega obsega proizvodnje iz člena 17(1) osnovne uredbe.
In view of the large number of importers identified from the complaint, sampling was also envisaged for importers in the notice of initiation in accordance with Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na veliko število uvoznikov, ugotovljeno na podlagi pritožbe, je bilo v obvestilu o začetku predvideno tudi vzorčenje za uvoznike v skladu s členom 17(1) osnovne uredbe.
However, on the basis of the analysis of the number of sampling returns, it was not necessary to apply sampling for importers.
Vendar na podlagi analize števila vprašalnikov o vzorčenju vzorčenje za uvoznike ni bilo potrebno.
Sampling for exporting producers in the PRC
Vzorčenje za proizvajalce izvoznike iz LRK
In view of the large number of exporting producers in the PRC, sampling was envisaged in the notice of initiation for the determination of dumping, in accordance with Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na veliko število proizvajalcev izvoznikov iz LRK je bilo v obvestilu o začetku za ugotavljanje dampinga predvideno vzorčenje v skladu s členom 17(1) osnovne uredbe.
In order to enable the Commission to decide whether sampling would be necessary and, if so, to select a sample, exporting producers in the PRC were requested to make themselves known within 15 days from the date of the initiation of the investigation and to provide basic information on their export and domestic sales, their precise activities with regard to the production of candles and the names and activities of all their related companies involved in the production and/or selling of the product concerned.
Da bi se lahko Komisija odločila, ali je vzorčenje potrebno, in če je, da bi izbrala vzorec, so bili proizvajalci izvozniki iz LRK pozvani, da se javijo v 15 dneh od začetka preiskave in posredujejo osnovne informacije o svojem izvozu in domači prodaji, natančnih dejavnostih v zvezi s proizvodnjo sveč in o imenih in dejavnostih vseh njihovih povezanih družb, vključenih v proizvodnjo in/ali prodajo zadevnega izdelka.
The authorities of the PRC and the producers' association were also consulted for the selection of a representative sample.
Za izbiro reprezentativnega vzorca so potekala tudi posvetovanja z organi LRK in združenjem proizvajalcev.
In total, 41 exporting producers, including groups of related companies in the PRC, came forward and provided the requested information within the given deadline set in the notice of initiation.
Skupaj se je javilo in predložilo potrebne informacije v navedenem roku iz obvestila o začetku enainštirideset proizvajalcev izvoznikov, vključno s skupinami povezanih družb iz LRK.
All of them reported exports of candles to the Community during the IP and, save for one producer with rather insignificant export volumes, expressed a wish to participate in the sample.
Vsi so predložili poročilo o izvozu sveč v Skupnost med OP in, razen enega proizvajalca z dokaj zanemarljivim obsegom izvoza, izrazili željo po vključitvi v vzorec.
Thus, 40 exporting producers are considered to be co-operating in the present investigation (‘co-operating exporters’).
Zato se za štirideset proizvajalcev izvoznikov šteje, da sodelujejo pri sedanji preiskavi („sodelujoči izvozniki“).
Exporting producers which did not make themselves known within the aforesaid deadline or did not provide the requested information in due time, were considered as non-cooperating with the investigation.
Za proizvajalce izvoznike, ki se niso javili v prej omenjenem roku ali niso pravočasno predložili zahtevanih informacij, se je štelo, da ne sodelujejo pri preiskavi.
The comparison between Eurostat import data and the volume of exports to the Community of the product concerned reported for the IP by the companies mentioned in recital (36) suggests that the co-operation of Chinese exporting producers was very low as mentioned in recital (87) below.
Primerjava med podatki Eurostata o uvozu in obsegom izvoza zadevnega izdelka v Skupnost, o katerem so za OP poročale družbe iz uvodne izjave (36), kaže, da je bilo sodelovanje kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov zelo nizko, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (86) spodaj.
Selection of the sample of cooperating exporters in the PRC
Izbira vzorca sodelujočih izvoznikov iz LRK
In accordance with Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation, a sample was selected based on the largest representative volume of exports of candles in the Community which could reasonably be investigated within the time available.
Vzorec je bil v skladu s členom 17(1) osnovne uredbe izbran na podlagi največjega reprezentativnega obsega izvoza sveč v Skupnost, ki ga je bilo mogoče ustrezno preiskati v razpoložljivem času.
On the basis of the information received from the exporting producers, the Commission selected a sample of eight companies or groups of related companies having the largest volume of exports to the Community.
Na podlagi prejetih informacij proizvajalcev izvoznikov je Komisija izbrala vzorec osmih družb ali skupin povezanih družb, ki imajo največji obseg izvoza v Skupnost.
Based on the sampling information, the selected companies accounted, in the IP, for more than 73 % of the total volume of exports to the Community of the product concerned reported by the co-operating exporting producers referred to in recital (36) above.
Na podlagi informacij o vzorčenju je izvoz izbranih družb v OP predstavljal več kot 73 % celotnega obsega izvoza zadevnega izdelka v Skupnost, ki so ga navedli sodelujoči proizvajalci izvozniki iz uvodne izjave (36) zgoraj.
Two co-operating exporters not included in the sample requested to be included in the sample by suggesting that criteria such as (i) the product range of the exporting producers, (ii) type of customers in the Community, (iii) geographical representation, (iv) foreign investment and (v) the degree of reliance in exports to the Community, should be taken into account in the selection of the sample.
Dva sodelujoča izvoznika, ki nista bila vključena v vzorec, sta zahtevala vključitev v vzorec z utemeljitvijo, da bi bilo treba pri izbiri vzorca upoštevati merila, kot so i) obseg izdelkov proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ii) vrsta strank v Skupnosti, iii) geografska reprezentativnost, iv) tuje naložbe in v) stopnja odvisnosti od izvoza v Skupnost.
In this regard it is noted that none of these criteria are provided for in Article 17(1) of the basic Regulation regarding the selection of the sample.
V zvezi s tem je ugotovljeno, da ta merila niso določena v členu 17(1) osnovne uredbe v zvezi z izbiro vzorca.
