No third countries apply trade defence measures to imports of RBMs originating in the PRC.
Nobena tretja država ne uporablja ukrepov trgovinske zaščite za uvoz obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo s poreklom iz LRK.
The investigation has shown that both the cooperating exporting producer and most likely also the other Chinese exporting producers have considerable spare capacity in view of the significant decrease in their exports from 2004 to the RIP.
Preiskava je pokazala, da imajo sodelujoči proizvajalec izvoznik in najverjetneje tudi drugi kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki veliko prosto zmogljivost glede na znatno zmanjšanje njihovega izvoza med letom 2004 in OPP.
It has also shown that there is a constant interest by Chinese parties to enter in the EU market.
Pokazala je tudi stalen interes kitajskih strank za vstop na trg EU.
Moreover, the sole cooperating producer could easily shift its production capacity from Thailand back to China if anti-dumping measures were repealed.
Poleg tega bi lahko edini sodelujoči proizvajalec izvoznik v primeru razveljavitve protidampinških ukrepov brez težav prenesel svojo proizvodno zmogljivost iz Tajske nazaj na Kitajsko.
In view of the spare capacities of the Chinese producers and the versatility of their machinery and equipment it is likely that imports from the PRC to the EU market could resume in significant quantities if the anti-dumping measures were allowed to expire.
Glede na proste zmogljivosti kitajskih proizvajalcev ter raznovrstnost njihovih strojev in opreme je verjetno, da bi se uvoz iz LRK na trg EU lahko nadaljeval v znatnih količinah, če bi se dovolil iztek protidampinških ukrepov.
The EU market is currently the only one in the world where anti-dumping measures exist and the facts established suggest that Chinese exporters would certainly aim to regain at the soonest possible time their past market shares by taking advantage of the necessary capacity adaptability.
Trg EU je trenutno edini trg na svetu, na katerem obstajajo protidampinški ukrepi, pri čemer ugotovljena dejstva kažejo, da bi kitajski izvozniki zagotovo želeli čim prej ponovno pridobiti svoje pretekle tržne deleže tako, da bi izkoristili potrebno prilagodljivost zmogljivosti.
The above conclusion is strengthened by the fact that they could afford to sell at prices that are lower than those of all their competitors in the EU market and have already demonstrated that they did so in the RIP.
Navedeno sklepno ugotovitev podpira dejstvo, da bi si lahko privoščili prodajati po cenah, ki so nižje od cen vseh njihovih tekmecev na trgu EU, pri čemer so v OPP že dokazali, da so to storili.
Based on all these findings and events, it is likely that in the event of resumption of exports by Chinese exporters to the EU, these exports would be priced below the normal value.
Na podlagi vseh teh ugotovitev in dogodkov je verjetno, da bi bil, če bi kitajski izvozniki nadaljevali z izvozom v EU, ta izvoz cenejši od normalne vrednosti.
Consequently, it is determined that, should the existing measures be repealed, the dumping from China will be likely to recur.
Zato se ugotavlja, da bi se v primeru razveljavitve obstoječih ukrepov uvoz iz Kitajske po dampinških cenah najverjetneje ponovil.
During the RIP RBMs were manufactured in the EU by the following producers:
V OPP sta obročne mehanizme za vezavo v EU proizvajala naslednja proizvajalca:
Ring Alliance Ringbuchtechnik GmbH, Vienna, Austria,
Ring Alliance Ringbuchtechnik GmbH, Wien, Avstrija
The investigation has established that the applicant represented more than 50 % of the total Union production of RBMs in the RIP.
V preiskavi je bilo ugotovljeno, da je vložnik predstavljal več kot 50 % celotne proizvodnje obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo v Uniji v OPP.
It is therefore considered that this producer represents the Union industry within the meaning of Articles 4(1) and 5(4) of the basic Regulation.
Zato se obravnava, da ta proizvajalec predstavlja industrijo Unije v smislu členov 4(1) in 5(4) osnovne uredbe.
It is hereinafter referred to as the ‘Union industry’.
Za navedenega proizvajalca se v nadaljevanju uporablja izraz „industrija Unije“.
The applicant and its subsidiaries is not related to the Chinese exporting producers.
Vložnik in njegove podružnice niso povezani s kitajskimi proizvajalci izvozniki.
It should be noted that in the past, the Union industry was originally composed of two different producers (Koloman Handler — Austria and Robert Krause — Germany) that went bankrupt and taken over by an Austrian group.
Opozoriti je treba, da je bila v preteklosti industrija Unije prvotno sestavljena iz dveh različnih proizvajalcev (Koloman Handler – Avstrija in Robert Krause – Nemčija), ki sta šla v stečaj in ju je prevzela avstrijska skupina.
The companies were subject to a significant restructuring and the current structure ‘Ring Alliance Ringbuchtechnik GmbH’ was created in 2003, i.e. about two years before the period considered.
Družbi sta bili bistveno prestrukturirani, pri čemer je bila trenutna struktura „Ring Alliance Ringbuchtechnik GmbH“ ustvarjena leta 2003, tj. približno dve leti pred obravnavanim obdobjem.
The head offices are located in Austria while production takes place in Hungary.
Sedež je v Avstriji, medtem ko proizvodnja poteka na Madžarskem.
SITUATION ON THE EU MARKET
RAZMERE NA TRGU EU
Consumption on the EU market
Potrošnja na trgu EU
The questionnaire replies of the cooperating Union producer were used to establish the Union industry’s sales of RBMs on the EU market.
Na podlagi izpolnjenega vprašalnika sodelujočega proizvajalca Unije je bila določena prodaja obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo industrije Unije na trgu EU.
Other information available was also used to calculate the sales of the Union producer not included in the definition of the Union industry.
Za izračun prodaje proizvajalca Unije, ki ni vključen v opredelitev industrije Unije, so bile uporabljene tudi druge razpoložljive informacije.
Data concerning import volumes were obtained from Eurostat statistics, with the exception of imports from Thailand which were obtained from replies to questionnaire received in the framework of the parallel anti-dumping proceeding concerning that country.
Podatki o obsegu uvoza so bili pridobljeni iz statističnih podatkov Eurostata z izjemo podatkov o uvozu iz Tajske, ki so bili pridobljeni na podlagi izpolnjenih vprašalnikov, prejetih v okviru vzporednega protidampinškega postopka v zvezi z navedeno državo.
On this basis, the EU consumption of RBMs declined by 4 % over the period considered from around 170-180 million pieces in 2005 to 165-175 million pieces in the RIP [12].
Na podlagi tega se je potrošnja obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo v EU v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšala za 4 %, in sicer s približno 170–180 milijonov kosov v letu 2005 na 165–175 milijonov kosov v OPP [12].
In order to establish total import volumes of the product concerned from the PRC, it was considered appropriate to include imports from those countries to which the current anti-dumping measures had been extended pursuant to Article 13(3) of the basic Regulation, i.e. Vietnam and Laos (see recitals 4 and 5 above).
Za določitev skupnega obsega uvoza zadevnega izdelka iz LRK je treba vključiti uvoz iz tistih držav, na kateri so bili razširjeni trenutni protidampinški ukrepi v skladu s členom 13(3) osnovne uredbe, tj. Vietnama in Laosa (glej uvodni izjavi 4 in 5).
Indeed, it was considered that imports from these countries were in fact products originating in the PRC.
Uvoženi izdelki iz teh držav so bili dejansko obravnavani kot izdelki s poreklom iz LRK.
On this basis, it was established that total imported volume of RBMs from the PRC decreased by more than 50 % during the period considered.
Na podlagi tega je bilo ugotovljeno, da se je skupni obseg uvoza obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo iz LRK v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal za več kot 50 %.
The market share decreased to the same extent during this period.
Tržni delež se je v tem obdobju zmanjšal za enak odstotek.
It should, however, be noted those figures include consigned imports from Laos only in 2005, and they represented half of the imports in that year.
Vendar je treba opozoriti, da te vrednosti vključujejo uvoz iz Laosa le za leto 2005, pri čemer predstavljajo polovico uvoza v navedenem letu.
Note that the anti-circumvention investigation concerning imports of RBMs consigned from Laos was opened in April 2005.
Opozoriti je treba, da se je preiskava proti izogibanju pri uvozu obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo iz Laosa začela aprila 2005.
The PRC market share dropped form 7,0 % to 3,8 % in 2006 and has remained stable since then (around 3 %).
Tržni delež LRK se je leta 2006 zmanjšal s 7,0 % na 3,8 % in od takrat ostaja nespremenjen (približno 3 %).
It is noted that, in the framework of the previous expiry review, the PRC’s market shares decreased from 14,8 % in 1998 to 1,9 % in 2001, i.e. the market share of Chinese RBMs is now higher than at the end of the period examined for the previous expiry review.
Opozoriti je treba, da se je v okviru prejšnjega pregleda ob izteku ukrepov tržni delež LRK zmanjšal s 14,8 % v letu 1998 na 1,9 % v letu 2001, kar pomeni, da je tržni delež kitajskih obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo zdaj višji kot na koncu obdobja, obravnavanega v okviru prejšnjega pregleda ob izteku ukrepov.
Price of the imports of the product concerned/undercutting
Cena uvoza zadevnega izdelka/nelojalno nižanje cen
Out of the three cooperating importers only one imported RBMs from the PRC during the RIP.
Od treh sodelujočih uvoznikov je v OPP le eden uvažal obročne mehanizme za vezavo iz LRK.
These imports were very small as compared to overall imports from PRC and consisted of mechanisms with 17 and 23 rings subject to a minimum import price.
Ta uvoz je bil zelo majhen v primerjavi s skupnim uvozom iz LRK in je zajemal mehanizme s 17 in 23 obročki, za katere je veljala minimalna uvozna cena.
These could therefore not have been used as a representative basis.
Zato tega uvoza ni bilo mogoče uporabiti kot reprezentativno podlago.
According to Eurostat statistics, import prices of RBMs originating in the PRC decreased by 5 % during the period considered and Chinese prices undercut the Union industry’s prices by around 10 % (not taking into account the anti-dumping duties).
Na podlagi statističnih podatkov Eurostata so se uvozne cene obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo s poreklom iz LRK v obravnavanem obdobju znižale za 5 %, pri čemer so kitajske cene nelojalno znižale cene industrije Unije za približno 10 % (brez protidampinških dajatev).
The absolute level of prices given by Eurostat, however, seems quite high as compared to import prices reported by Chinese export statistics and Eurostat figures given for other third countries.
Vendar je absolutna raven cen, ki jih je navedel Eurostat, precej visoka v primerjavi z uvoznimi cenami, o katerih poročajo statistični podatki o kitajskem izvozu in podatki Eurostata za druge tretje države.
As pointed out above, it is likely that, should measures be repealed, Chinese export prices would have to align to their foreign competitors (Thailand, India) and on that basis the undercutting rate would be much more significant.
Kot je že bilo navedeno, bi se morale v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov kitajske izvozne cene najverjetneje uskladiti s cenami tujih tekmecev (Tajska, Indija), pri čemer bi bila na podlagi tega stopnja nelojalnega nižanja cen veliko večja.
As to imports from other third countries, imports of RBMs originating in India are decreasing while imports of RBMs originating in Thailand have slightly increased during the RIP when they are higher as compared to previous years.
V zvezi z uvozom iz drugih tretjih držav se uvoz obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo s poreklom iz Indije zmanjšuje, medtem ko se je uvoz obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo s poreklom iz Tajske nekoliko povečal v OPP, ko je bil večji v primerjavi s prejšnjimi leti.
As well as other countries, Hong Kong is exporting the RBMs to the EU but no representations were made in this respect and no further information is available.
Tako kot druge države je tudi Hongkong izvažal obročne mehanizme za vezavo v EU, vendar v zvezi s tem ni bilo podanih navedb, dodatne informacije pa niso na voljo.
Economic situation of the Union industry [13]
Gospodarski položaj industrije Unije [13]
Capacity utilisation (%)
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti (%)
During the period considered the production increased by almost 20 % while capacity remained relatively stable.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je proizvodnja povečala za skoraj 20 %, medtem ko je zmogljivost ostala relativno nespremenjena.
As a result capacity utilisation followed a trend similar to production, increasing by 9 percentage points.
Posledično je izkoriščenost zmogljivosti sledila podobnemu trendu kot proizvodnja in se je povečala za 9 odstotnih točk.
The level of the capacity utilisation during the RIP was however below the level it reached in 2001, i.e. the investigation period of the previous expiry review.
Vendar je bila raven izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti v OPP manjša od ravni, dosežene v letu 2001, tj. v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s prejšnjim pregledom ob izteku ukrepov.
The capacity utilisation rate then was between 70 % and 75 %.
Stopnja izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti je bila med 70 % in 75 %.
In the period considered the Union industry’s stocks increased overall by 43 %.
V obravnavanem obdobju so se zaloge industrije Unije povečale za skupno 43 %.
A significant part of the RBMs production consists of standard products, and the Union industry therefore has to maintain a certain level of stock in order to be in a position to swiftly satisfy the demand of its customers.
Pomemben del proizvodnje obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo zajema standardne izdelke, zato mora industrija Unije ohranjati določeno raven zalog, da se lahko hitro odzove na povpraševanje svojih strank.
Any increase of the closing stock above the average level indicates difficulties to sell the products (domestically and on the export market).
Povečanje končne zaloge nad povprečno ravnjo kaže na težave pri prodaji izdelkov (na domačem in izvoznem trgu).
The seasonality of the sales should also be taken into account: sales are more important during the last quarter of the year, corresponding to the beginning of the school season.
Upoštevati je treba tudi sezonsko naravo prodaje: prodaja je višja v zadnji četrtini leta, ki ustreza začetku šolskega leta.
The Union industry’s sales on the EU market increased by 23 % over the period considered and market shares developed from 24,4 % to 31,1 %, i.e. a raise of almost 7 percentage points.
Prodaja industrije Unije na trgu EU se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečala za 23 %, pri čemer so se tržni deleži povečali s 24,4 % na 31,1 %, tj. za skoraj 7 odstotnih točk.
This increase of market shares indicates that the Union industry’s growth was above the development of the consumption.
To povečanje tržnih deležev kaže na to, da je bila rast industrije Unije višja od rasti potrošnje.
The absolute level of market share remained however below its 2001 level, the previous investigation period, when it reached around 40 %.
Vendar je absolutna raven tržnega deleža ostala pod ravnjo iz leta 2001 (tj. prejšnjega obdobja preiskave), ko je dosegla približno 40 %.
The Union industry’s weighted average selling price decreased by 12 % during the period considered.
Tehtana povprečna prodajna cena v industriji Unije se je v obravnavanem obdobju znižala za 12 %.
It should be noted that in the last years the raw material prices (steel) followed an increasing trend worldwide, and that steel represents around 40 % of the total unit cost.
Opozoriti je treba, da so se v zadnjih letih cene surovin (jekla) po vsem svetu višale in da jeklo predstavlja približno 40 % skupnih stroškov na enoto.
Sales prices were loss making from 2006 onwards.
Prodajne cene so od leta 2006 ustvarjale izgubo.
Profitability, return on investments, cash-flow
Dobičkonosnost, donosnost naložb, denarni tok
Cash-flow
Denarni tok
During the RIP, losses were small.
Izgube v OPP so bile majhne.
The cash-flow and return on net assets largely followed the same trend.
Denarni tok in donosnost neto sredstev sta v veliki meri sledila enakemu trendu.
With such a financial situation the applicant representing the Union industry would undoubtedly face difficulties to raise capital outside the group.
S takšnim finančnim stanjem bi imel vložnik, ki predstavlja industrijo Unije, nedvomno težave pri zbiranju kapitala zunaj skupine.
Even if investments followed a decreasing trend, i.e. 20 % during the period considered, the Union industry however maintained a certain level of investments in order to remain competitive.
Čeprav so se naložbe zmanjšale, in sicer za 20 % v obravnavanem obdobju, je industrija Unije ohranila določeno raven naložb, da bi ostala konkurenčna.
Those investments consisted of new machinery in order to improve the production process and to increase competitiveness.
Te naložbe so zajemale nove stroje za izboljšanje proizvodnega procesa in povečanje konkurenčnosti.
As stated in recital 66, given the weak financial situation of the Union industry it can be concluded that its ability to raise capital from independent sources was seriously affected.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 66, je mogoče glede na slabo finančno stanje industrije Unije skleniti, da je bila njena sposobnost zbiranja kapitala iz neodvisnih virov resno prizadeta.
Overall wages
Plače na splošno
During the period considered employment (full-time units) increased by 4 % and productivity, measured in thousand of pieces produced per employee during the period, improved by 14 %; overall labour costs increased by 11 %, which is largely explained by the increase of the employment figures; the average wage increase per employee remained more limited.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je zaposlenost (enote polnega delovnega časa) povečala za 4 %, produktivnost, merjena v tisoč proizvedenih kosih na zaposlenega v obdobju, pa se je izboljšala za 14 %; skupni stroški dela so se povečali za 11 %, kar je v veliki meri posledica povečanja števila zaposlenih; povprečno povečanje plače na zaposlenega pa je bilo nižje.
On the basis of the best facts available, the investigation has established the existence of dumping during the RIP of 20,7 %, which is quite substantial.
Na podlagi najboljših razpoložljivih dejstev je bil v preiskavi ugotovljen obstoj dampinga v OPP v višini 20,7 %, kar je precejšen delež.
The Union industry has restructured and benefited to a certain extent from the imposition of measures against dumped imports.
Industrija Unije je bila prestrukturirana, pri čemer je imela v določeni meri koristi od uvedbe ukrepov proti dampinškemu uvozu.
Its economic situation has indeed improved in the last years: production, sales, market share and employment show positive trends.
Njen gospodarski položaj se je v zadnjih letih izboljšal: proizvodnja, prodaja, tržni delež in zaposlenost kažejo na pozitivne trende.
The industry could also not yet reach the level of sales and production it reached in the past.
Poleg tega industrija še ni bila sposobna doseči ravni prodaje in proizvodnje, ki jo je dosegala v preteklosti.
This should also been seen in the light of the fact that during part of the period examined, measures were also undermined by circumventing practices as described above.
To je treba obravnavati tudi ob upoštevanju dejstva, da so bili v delu obravnavanega obdobja ukrepi oslabljeni tudi zaradi praks izogibanja.
Even though there was an improvement of the economic situation of the Union industry, it thus remained in a precarious situation during the period considered.
Čeprav se je gospodarski položaj industrije Unije izboljšal, je njen položaj v obravnavanem obdobju ostal negotov.
The Union industry restructured its activities and benefited from the anti-dumping measures.
Industrija Unije je prestrukturirala svoje dejavnosti, pri čemer je imela koristi od protidampinških ukrepov.
However, although those measures were imposed for the first time in 1997, they were only fully effective when the effects of absorption and circumvention practices were offset.
Čeprav so bili ti ukrepi prvič uvedeni leta 1997, so bili v celoti učinkoviti le takrat, ko so bili učinki praks absorpcije in izogibanja izravnani.
Even though the situation of the Union industry improved, it remains fragile and vulnerable.
Čeprav se je položaj industrije Unije izboljšal, je ta še naprej občutljiva in ranljiva.
Under such circumstances it is appropriate to carry out an analysis of the likelihood of recurrence of material injury in order to examine whether — should the measures be repealed — projected developments in terms of volumes and prices of imports originating in the PRC would further deteriorate the situation of the industry and cause material injury.
V takšnih okoliščinah je treba izvesti analizo verjetnosti ponovitve materialne škode, da se prouči, ali bi v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov napovedani razvoj dogodkov v zvezi z obsegom in cenami uvoza s poreklom iz LRK dodatno poslabšal položaj industrije ter povzročil materialno škodo.
Impact of the projected increase in dumped imports on the Union industry
Vpliv napovedanega povečanja dampinškega uvoza na industrijo Unije
It is recalled that there is significant spare capacity in China and that production of RBMs could easily be increased to a large extent.
Opozoriti je treba, da ima Kitajska pomembno prosto zmogljivost in da bi se lahko proizvodnja obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo enostavno zelo povečala.
This is based on the above findings that the sole cooperating Chinese producer could easily restore its currently reduced production capacity and even close down its production site in Thailand in order to repatriate production to China.
To temelji na navedenih ugotovitvah, da bi lahko edini sodelujoči kitajski proizvajalec enostavno obnovil trenutno zmanjšano proizvodno zmogljivost in celo zaprl proizvodni obrat v Tajski, da bi vrnil proizvodnjo na Kitajsko.
Furthermore, other non-cooperating Chinese producers have significant spare capacity or could easily restore such capacity given the short lead time in adaptability of machinery and the overall versatility of equipments necessary to produce RBMs.
Poleg tega imajo drugi nesodelujoči kitajski proizvajalci pomembno prosto zmogljivost ali bi prosto zmogljivost lahko enostavno obnovili glede na kratko časovno pripravo za prilagoditev strojev in splošno raznovrstnost opreme, ki je potrebna za proizvodnjo obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo.
It was established that any increase of RBMs production in PRC would more than likely be massively exported to the EU if measures were repealed.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da bi v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov povečanje proizvodnje obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo v LRK zagotovo prispevalo k povečanju izvoza v EU.
This is based on the fact that the EU market remains significant in terms of size and was historically an important market for Chinese exporters who would certainly try to regain their lost market shares.
To temelji na dejstvu, da je trg EU še vedno pomemben zaradi velikosti in da je bil v preteklosti pomemben trg za kitajske izvoznike, ki bi zagotovo poskusili ponovno pridobiti izgubljene tržne deleže.
The attractiveness of the EU market for Chinese exporters was also clearly evidenced by the numerous attempts to avoid the anti-dumping measures in place.
Jasen dokaz o privlačnosti trga EU za kitajske izvoznike so tudi številni poskusi izogibanja protidampinškim ukrepom, ki se izvajajo.
Measures were indeed absorbed, circumvented via third countries and even via slight modification of the products.
Ukrepi so se absorbirali, pri čemer se jim je izogibalo prek tretjih držav in celo prek manjših sprememb izdelkov.
Finally, it is established that the conditions of any future increase of RBMs imports in the EU would have serious negative consequences on the situation of the Union industry.
Ugotovljeno je, da bi imele razmere kakršnega koli povečanja uvoza obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo v EU v prihodnosti resne negativne posledice za položaj industrije Unije.
As mentioned above, if measures were repealed, the import volume of RBMs from PRC is expected to be important.
Kot je bilo navedeno, se pričakuje, da bo v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov obseg uvoza obročnih mehanizmov za vezavo iz LRK velik.
