It has been argued that OEM and AM are two separate sales channels, without any significant interaction between them.
Trdilo se je, da gre pri področjih OEM in AM za dva ločena prodajna kanala, ki nimata nobene znatne medsebojne povezave.
On this basis, it has notably been claimed that the injury of the Union industry, which channels most of its sales to the OEM segment (85 % for sampled producers), could not have been caused by Chinese imports which concentrate predominantly on the AM segment and have limited OEM presence.
Na podlagi tega se je zlasti trdilo, da škode industrije Unije, ki večino svoje prodaje opravi na področju OEM (85 % vzorčenih proizvajalcev), ni mogel povzročiti kitajski uvoz, ki je osredotočen zlasti na področje AM in katerega prisotnost je na področju OEM omejena.
Although the distribution channels are indeed separate, according to the Commission's findings, some interaction, although not direct, may nevertheless be taking place.
Čeprav sta distribucijska kanala dejansko ločena, po ugotovitvah Komisije še vedno obstaja neka povezava, čeprav ne neposredna.
However, in order to have the most complete picture possible of the situation at hand, the two segments have also been considered separately.
Vendar sta bili področji obravnavani ločeno, da bi se zagotovil čim večji pregled nad trenutnim položajem.
On the AM segment, the injury found can certainly be attributed to the high volumes of low-priced Chinese imports which account for up to 34 % on this segment.
Ugotovljeno škodo na področju AM je vsekakor mogoče pripisati velikemu obsegu poceni kitajskega uvoza, ki na tem področju dosega do 34 %.
In the OEM segment, which constitutes the major part of the EU consumption (35 million units out of around 50), the Chinese presence in terms of volumes is much smaller (with a maximum of 6 %).
Na področju OEM, ki pomeni večji del potrošnje EU (35 od približno 50 milijonov enot), je obseg poceni kitajskega uvoza veliko manjši (največ 6 %).
However, as already explained it has to be borne in mind that the injury suffered in relation to OEM sales is triggered by the low Chinese prices and is indeed price-related.
Kot pa je bilo že pojasnjeno, je treba upoštevati, da so škodo, ki jo je utrpela prodaja na področju OEM, povzročile nizke kitajske cene in da je ta škoda dejansko povezana s cenami.
More specifically, there are indications that the car makers use the Chinese offers as a benchmark with the effect of forcing down the prices of the EU ARWs producers in the tendering processes.
Natančneje, podatki kažejo, da proizvajalci avtomobilov uporabljajo kitajske ponudbe kot merilo, kar vpliva na znižanje cen proizvajalcev aluminijastih platišč v EU v razpisnih postopkih.
In order to remain present on the market, the Union producers indeed have no choice but to give in and reduce their prices.
Da bi se proizvajalci Unije obdržali na trgu, dejansko nimajo druge izbire, kot da znižajo svoje cene.
Further, it cannot be excluded that downward price trends on the AM segment have an effect on the OEM prices.
Poleg tega ni mogoče izključiti, da trendi zniževanja cen na področju AM vplivajo na cene na področju OEM.
Indeed, a comparison of average AM and OEM prices showed that while the latter were on average higher than the former until 2007, this has changed in 2008 and the IP.
Primerjava povprečnih cen na področjih AM in OEM je pokazala, da so bile povprečne cene na področju OEM do leta 2007 dejansko višje od cen na področju AM, vendar se je to leta 2008 in v OP spremenilo.
This shows that the price pressure on the OEM segment has been much more pronounced over the last years.
To pomeni, da je bil pritisk cen na področju OEM v zadnjih letih veliko večji.
Therefore, it is provisionally considered that Chinese imports have caused injury to the Union industry both on the AM and the OEM segments.
Zato se začasno sklene, da je kitajski uvoz povzročil škodo industriji Unije na področjih AM in OEM.
This will in any event be further investigated.
To se bo v vsakem primeru dodatno preiskalo.
Impact of imports from third countries other than the PRC
Učinek uvoza iz tretjih držav, razen LRK
Impact of imports from Turkey
Učinek uvoza iz Turčije
As shown in recital (99) et seq, Turkey is the second largest importer after China.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (99) in naslednjih uvodnih izjavah, je Turčija drugi največji uvoznik za Kitajsko.
Over the period considered, Turkish imports held a market share of around 7 % on the EU market.
Tržni delež turškega uvoza na trgu EU je v obravnavanem obdobju znašal približno 7 %.
The table below compares the prices of imports from all third countries with those of the EU producers.
V spodnji preglednici so primerjane cene uvoza iz vseh tretjih držav s cenami proizvajalcev EU.
In Euros/unit
V EUR/enoto

On these grounds, it is reasonable to provisionally conclude that in the IP, the lower prices of imports from Turkey had some negative impact on the situation of the EU industry, but not to a significant extent susceptible of breaking the causal link between dumped imports from China and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na podlagi tega je smiselno, da se začasno sklene, da so nižje cene uvoza iz Turčije v OP nekoliko negativno vplivale na položaj industrije EU, vendar ne v tolikšni meri, da bi lahko prekinile vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom iz Kitajske in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Impact of imports from third countries other than Turkey
Učinek uvoza iz tretjih držav, razen Turčije
As far as imports from countries other than China and Turkey are concerned, their cumulated market share decreased from 9 % in 2006 to 8,3 % in the IP (see recital (99)).
Kumulativni tržni delež uvoza iz tretjih držav, razen Kitajske in Turčije, se je zmanjšal z 9 % leta 2006 na 8,3 % v OP (glej uvodno izjavo (99)).
Corresponding prices remained close to those of the Union producers over the same period.
Ustrezne cene so v istem obdobju ostale blizu cenam proizvajalcem Unije.
On these grounds, it is considered that imports from third countries other than China and Turkey did not contribute to the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na podlagi tega se sklene, da uvoz iz tretjih držav, razen Kitajske in Turčije, ni prispeval k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Impact of the economic crisis
Učinek gospodarske krize
Some parties claimed that imports from China were absorbed by an increase in EU consumption in 2007 and that the decrease in consumption in 2008 coincided with the economic downturn and the parallel contraction of sales of the car industry.
Nekatere strani so trdile, da se je uvoz iz Kitajske absorbiral zaradi povečanja potrošnje v EU leta 2007 ter da je zmanjšanje potrošnje leta 2008 sovpadalo z gospodarsko recesijo in zmanjšanjem prodaje avtomobilske industrije.
According to this argument, these factors were the key causes of the weak performance by the Union industry.
Na podlagi tega argumenta so bili ti dejavniki glavni vzroki za slabo produktivnost industrije Unije.
The economic crisis indeed negatively affected the situation of the Union industry due to shrinking consumption levels and downward price effects.
Gospodarska kriza je dejansko negativno vplivala na položaj industrije Unije zaradi nižjih ravni potrošnje in učinkov zniževanja cen.
Between 2008 and the IP, consumption dropped by 14,5 %.
Potrošnja se je med letom 2008 in OP zmanjšala za 14,5 %.
The ARWs producers operate in symbiosis with the car industry which was seriously affected by the crisis.
Proizvajalci aluminijastih platišč sodelujejo z avtomobilsko industrijo, ki jo je kriza močno prizadela.
The table below shows the development of car production volumes in Europe in the period considered.
V spodnji preglednici je prikazan razvoj obsega avtomobilske proizvodnje v Evropi v obravnavanem obdobju.
It is true that cars incorporate either aluminium or steel ARWs, with the proportion being difficult to establish.
Dejstvo je, da imajo avtomobili nameščena aluminijasta ali jeklena platišča, pri čemer je težko določiti razmerje med njimi.
However, there are no indications that this proportion would have significantly changed over the period considered.
Vendar ni nobenih znakov, da bi se to razmerje v obravnavanem obdobju znatno spremenilo.
Therefore, it cannot be excluded that the drop in the volume of production of cars — which indeed decreased dramatically from the end of 2008 to the IP, would have an impact on the sales volume of ARWs producers.
Zato ni mogoče izključiti, da bi zmanjšanje obsega proizvodnje avtomobilov, ki se je med koncem leta 2008 in OP dejansko občutno zmanjšalo, vplivalo na obseg prodaje proizvajalcev aluminijastih platišč.
The table below show that the decrease in production volume was indeed more than 15 % between 2008 and the IP.
V spodnji preglednici je prikazano, da se je obseg proizvodnje med letom 2008 in OP dejansko zmanjšal za več kot 15 %.

However, the analysis of the economic indicators of the Union industry shows that the downward trend started well before the economic crisis and coincided in time with the start of the market penetration by Chinese imports.
Vendar analiza gospodarskih kazalcev industrije Unije kaže, da se je trend zniževanja začel veliko pred gospodarsko krizo in je sovpadal z vstopom kitajskega uvoza na trg.
The profitability figures for example demonstrate that the downward trend began between 2006 and 2007 (decrease by 2,5 percentage points), continued between 2007 and 2008 (another decrease by 2,2 percentage points) to reach an extreme decrease by 6,9 percentage points between 2008 and the IP.
Podatki o dobičkonosnosti na primer kažejo, da se je trend zniževanja začel med letoma 2006 in 2007 (zmanjšanje za 2,5 odstotne točke), nato se je nadaljeval med letoma 2007 in 2008 (dodatno zmanjšanje za 2,2 odstotne točke), med letom 2008 in OP pa se je zmanjšal za kar 6,9 odstotne točke.
Further, the Chinese imports continued to increase their presence on the market despite the contracting consumption, reaching 12,4 % in the IP.
Poleg tega se je tržni delež kitajskega uvoza kljub manjši potrošnji še naprej povečeval, pri čemer je v OP dosegel 12,4 %.
Their volumes and market share were steadily growing and their prices continuously undercut those of the EU industry.
Njegov obseg in tržni delež sta se stalno povečevala, njegove cene pa so stalno nelojalno nižale prodajne cene industrije Unije.
However, one would reasonably have expected that the crisis should affect all market operators in a similar way.
Vendar bi bilo smiselno pričakovati, da kriza podobno vpliva na vse udeležence na trgu.
Yet, as explained above, Chinese imports increased at prices that substantially undercut EU prices in the situation at hand.
Kot pa je bilo pojasnjeno, se je v tem primeru obseg kitajskega uvoza po cenah, ki so znatno nelojalno nižale prodajne cene EU, povečal.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to conclude that if it had not been for the economic crisis, the volumes and market share of Chinese imports would have increased even more.
Zato ni nesmiselno skleniti, da bi se obseg in tržni delež kitajskega uvoza še bolj povečala, če ne bi bilo gospodarske krize.
On these grounds, it is reasonable to assume that the economic downturn, even if it contributed to the injury suffered by the Union industry, does not appear on its own to be a factor that would break the causal link between the dumped imports and the material injury.
Na podlagi tega je smiselno predvidevati, da gospodarska recesija sama po sebi ni dejavnik, ki bi lahko prekinil vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom in znatno škodo, čeprav je prispevala k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
To the contrary, volumes of imports from China should normally have decreased in line with the drop of consumption as did imports from other third countries and most notably the sales by the EU industry (which, it is recalled decreased commensurately with the Chinese imports increase).
Nasprotno bi se moral obseg uvoza iz Kitajske običajno zmanjšati v skladu z zmanjšanjem potrošnje, kot se je zgodilo z uvozom iz drugih tretjih držav in zlasti s prodajo industrije EU (ki se je zmanjšala sorazmerno s povečanjem kitajskega uvoza).
Impact of changes in export performance of the Union industry
Učinek sprememb pri izvozu industrije Unije
Export activity of the Union producers remained low over the period considered (less than 2 % of total sales of EU sampled producers).
Izvozna dejavnost proizvajalcev Unije je v obravnavanem obdobju ostala nizka (manj kot 2 % celotne prodaje vzorčenih proizvajalcev EU).
It could not therefore have any negative impact on the weak situation of the Union industry and cannot break the causal link.
Zato ni mogla imeti negativnega učinka na slab položaj industrije Unije in ne more prekiniti vzročne zveze.
Competition between Union producers and concentration on the EU market
Konkurenca med proizvajalci Unije in koncentracija na trgu EU
The number of producers of ARWs (about thirty) operating on the EU market suggests that the EU market is very competitive although it is also characterised by a high level of industrial concentration with the 3 largest companies holding a share of 60 % of total production, 2 others of around 8 % and then 4 of around 4 %.
Število proizvajalcev aluminijastih platišč (približno trideset), ki delujejo na trgu EU, kaže na to, da je trg EU zelo konkurenčen, čeprav je zanj značilna visoka raven industrijske koncentracije, pri čemer imajo 3 največje družbe 60-odstotni delež celotne proizvodnje, drugi 2 približno 8-odstotni, zadnje 4 pa približno 4-odstotni delež.
Available data on production volumes shows that the other producers are small or medium size companies.
Razpoložljivi podatki o obsegu proizvodnje kažejo, da so drugi proizvajalci mala ali srednje velika podjetja.
It should be noted that a number of smaller producers closed down their production before 2008, in 2008 and in the IP.
Opozoriti je treba, da so nekateri mali proizvajalci pred letom 2008, leta 2008 in v OP ustavili svojo proizvodnjo.
This could suggest that the competition amongst Union producers — and the apparent ongoing concentration process — have contributed to the injury suffered by the Union industry.
To bi lahko pomenilo, da sta konkurenca med proizvajalci Unije in očitni postopek koncentracije prispevala k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
However, the data of the investigation show that it is not only the small producers that are affected.
Vendar podatki iz preiskave kažejo, da niso prizadeti le mali proizvajalci.
Indeed larger and smaller producers are similarly influenced by the developments at hand.
Trenutni razvoj dogodkov je podobno vplival na večje in manjše proizvajalce.
Therefore, it cannot be concluded that competition amongst Union producers has contributed in any significant manner to the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Zato ni mogoče skleniti, da je konkurenca med proizvajalci Unije pomembno prispevala k znatni škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Consumer preferences regarding steel and ARWs
Potrošnikova prednostna izbira glede jeklenih in aluminijastih platišč
It was argued that the shrinking demand for ARWs could be an economic crisis-related change in consumer preferences which might turn to less expensive steel wheels.
Trdilo se je, da se je povpraševanje po aluminijastih platiščih zmanjševalo zaradi spremembe potrošnikove prednostne izbire, ki je povezana z gospodarsko krizo, zaradi katere se potrošniki morda raje odločajo za cenejša jeklena platišča.
No element was however submitted in support of this allegation.
Vendar ni bilo predloženih nobenih podatkov, ki bi podprli to trditev.
At this stage, and in the absence of any data on file supporting the argument, no such development could be confirmed.
V tej fazi in ob odsotnosti kakršnih koli evidentiranih podatkov, ki bi podprli to trditev, takšnega razvoja ni bilo mogoče potrditi.

Ponudba
Some parties claimed that the increase of Chinese imports was due to an increased demand for specific high end technology types of wheels produced in the PRC (i.e. forged or flow-formed wheels), which would not be (in any significant quantity) produced in the EU.
Nekatere strani so trdile, da se je kitajski uvoz povečal zaradi večjega povpraševanja po posebnih visokokakovostnih vrstah platišč s poreklom iz LRK (tj. kovanih ali potisno oblikovanih platišč), ki se v EU ne proizvajajo (v zadostnih količinah).
Therefore, the imports from the PRC could not have caused injury to the Union industry.
Zato uvoz iz LRK ni mogel povzročiti škode industriji Skupnosti.
The investigation has however established that those imports constituted only a very small fraction of total imports from the PRC.
Vendar je bilo v preiskavi ugotovljeno, da ta uvoz predstavlja le zelo majhen del celotnega uvoza iz LRK.
Therefore the argument had to be rejected.
Zato je bilo treba trditev zavrniti.
It should be recalled that in this case, it has been found there has been a significant decrease of production and sales, loss of market share, as well as price depression leading to losses of the Union industry.
Opozoriti je treba, da je bilo v tem primeru ugotovljeno, da so k izgubam industrije Unije prispevali znatno zmanjšanje proizvodnje in prodaje, izguba tržnega deleža ter znižanje cen.
Import volumes from the PRC, which undercut substantially the Union industry prices, as well as their market share have increased during the same period of time.
Obseg uvoza iz LRK, zaradi katerega so se znatno nelojalno znižale prodajne cene industrije Unije, vključno z njenim tržnim deležem, se je v istem obdobju povečal.
The Commission has also analysed all other factors that might have contributed to the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Komisija je analizirala tudi vse druge dejavnike, ki bi lahko prispevali k znatni škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
In this respect, it was found that the economic crisis, the imports from Turkey and the competition between Union producers leading to a concentration process may have had some impact on the injury situation.
V zvezi s tem je bilo ugotovljeno, da so gospodarska kriza, uvoz iz Turčije in konkurenca med proizvajalci Unije ter posledični postopek koncentracije morda vplivali na povzročeno škodo.
However, it is provisionally concluded that their impact is not such as to break the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury found, as detailed above.
Vendar se začasno sklene, da njihov učinek ni bil tolikšen, da bi lahko prekinil vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom in ugotovljeno škodo, kot je bilo podrobno opisano.
Based on the above analysis of the effects of all known factors on the situation of the Union industry, it is therefore provisionally concluded that there is a causal link between the dumped imports from the PRC and the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Zato se na podlagi zgornje analize učinkov vseh znanih dejavnikov na položaj industrije Unije začasno sklene, da obstaja vzročna zveza med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in znatno škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Skupnosti.
This case found a high level of cooperation and support from the Union production (more than 70 %).
V tem primeru je bila ugotovljena visoka raven sodelovanja in podpore proizvodnje Unije (več kot 70 %).
This suggests that the imposition of measures is clearly in the interest of the EU producers.
To pomeni, da je uvedba ukrepov jasno v interesu proizvajalcev EU.
The investigation showed that the Union industry is suffering material injury because of the effects of dumped imports which undercut its prices as elaborated in recital (93) et seq.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je industrija Unije utrpela znatno škodo zaradi učinkov dampinškega uvoza, zaradi katerega so se nelojalno znižale prodajne cene, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (93) in naslednjih uvodnih izjavah.
It can be expected that the Union industry will benefit from the measures which would likely prevent a further surge of dumped, low-priced imports.
Pričakuje se lahko, da bodo ukrepi, s katerimi se bo verjetno preprečilo nenadno povečanje poceni dampinškega uvoza v prihodnosti, koristili industriji Unije.
Should measures not be imposed, it can be expected that the increase of low-priced, dumped ARWs, in particular on the AM segment, will continue if not increase.
Če se ukrepi ne bodo uvedli, se lahko pričakuje, da se bo uvoz poceni dampinških aluminijastih platišč, zlasti na področju AM, nadaljeval ali celo stopnjeval.
It can further not be excluded that the increasing price pressure on and penetration of the AM segment will have at least an indirect effect on the situation on the OEM segment.
Poleg tega ni mogoče izključiti, da bo vedno večji pritisk cen na področje AM in vstop področja AM na trg vsaj posredno vplival na položaj področja OEM.
In this respect, it has been found that certain producers in the country concerned are moving or have already moved to the middle and upper end of the AM segment and then further on to the OEM segment — with very low prices.
V zvezi s tem je bilo ugotovljeno, da se nekateri proizvajalci v zadevni državi že začenjajo ali so se že začeli ukvarjati s srednjim in zgornjim delom področja AM in nato s področjem EOM, pri čemer zagotavljajo zelo nizke cene.
This development can be expected to continue and in turn will very likely endanger also the large group of Union producers active in the OEM segment.
Pričakuje se lahko, da se bo ta razvoj nadaljeval, kar bo zelo verjetno ogrozilo tudi veliko skupino proizvajalcev Unije s področja OEM.
As the financial situation and profitability of those producers is not robust enough to withstand further price pressure exerted by dumped imports that considerably undercut their prices, this would lead very likely to the progressive demise of a large number of Union producers, if not their totality.
Ker finančni položaj in dobičkonosnost teh proizvajalcev nista dovolj stabilna, da bi prenesla nadaljnji pritisk cen dampinškega uvoza, zaradi katerega so se znatno nelojalno znižale njihove prodajne cene, bi zelo verjetno postopno propadlo veliko proizvajalcev Unije ali celo vsi proizvajalci Unije.
In the sampling exercise (see recital (13) above), 5 unrelated importers and 2 importing users were chosen on the basis of their volume of imports.
Pri vzorčenju (glej uvodno izjavo (13)) je bilo izbranih 5 nepovezanih uvoznikov in 2 uvoznika uporabnika na podlagi njihovega obsega uvoza.
The cooperation of unrelated importers in general accounts for less than 10 % of the total volume of imports from the PRC.
Sodelovanje nepovezanih uvoznikov na splošno pomeni manj kot 10 % skupnega obsega uvoza iz LRK.
The investigation showed that most of the importers are traders specialized in car accessories.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je večina uvoznikov trgovcev, specializiranih za avtomobilski pribor.
Amongst them, 2 categories can be distinguished.
Razdeliti jih je mogoče na 2 kategoriji.
One category consists of companies that import and resell their own branded ARWs, the production of which they have outsourced to the PRC.
Prva kategorija vključuje družbe, ki uvažajo in nadalje prodajajo svojo lastno blagovno znamko aluminijastih platišč, proizvedejo pa jih zunanji izvajalci v LRK.
However they are not related to the Chinese exporters.
Kljub temu te družbe niso povezane s kitajskimi izvozniki.
This category of importers usually has not insignificant ‘added value’ activities in the EU (e.g. design, research and development), and sometimes even their own distribution chain, with a corresponding level of employment.
Ta kategorija uvoznikov ima običajno nezanemarljiv obseg dejavnosti „z dodano vrednostjo“ v EU (npr. oblikovanje, raziskave in razvoj) in včasih celo svojo proizvodno verigo z ustrezno ravnjo zaposlovanja.
The second category consists of importers/distributors which are traders focussing more on volumes and less on the brand.
Druga kategorija vključuje uvoznike/distributerje, ki so trgovci, ki večji pomen pripisujejo obsegu kot blagovni znamki.
