Indeed, the Union industry was forced to keep its sales prices low in order to compete against the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC, which led to a significant drop in its profitability.
Dejansko je bila industrija Unije prisiljena zaračunavati nizke cene, da bi lahko tekmovala z nizkocenovnim uvozom iz LRK, kar je privedlo do znatnega zmanjšanja njene dobičkonosnosti.
Accordingly, it is provisionally concluded that the undercutting practiced by the Chinese exporters depressed the prices on the Union market and prevented the Union industry from increasing its sales prices to cover its costs.
Glede na to se začasno sklene, da je nelojalno nižanje cen kitajskih izvoznikov zniževalo cene na trgu Unije in je preprečevalo, da bi industrija Unije povečala prodajne cene, da bi pokrila stroške.
Captive production of the Union industry
Lastna proizvodnja industrije Unije
The investigation showed that only one Union producer which cooperated with the investigation was vertically integrated and that the captive production was used for further processing into value added products in the downstream industry.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je bil le en proizvajalec Unije, ki je sodeloval pri preiskavi, vertikalno integriran in da je bila lastna proizvodnja uporabljena za nadaljnjo predelavo v izdelke z dodano vrednostjo v industriji na koncu proizvodne verige.
Indeed, the captive use remained stable over the period considered and represented around 7 % of the production volume.
Dejansko je lastna uporaba med obravnavanim obdobjem ostala stabilna in je predstavljala približno 7 % obsega proizvodnje.
On that basis, it was considered that the captive production of the Union industry did not contribute to the deterioration of its financial situation, in particular during the IP.
Na podlagi tega se je menilo, da lastna proizvodnja industrije Unije ni prispevala k poslabšanju finančnega stanja, zlasti ne v OP.
Although the analysis of injury and causation focused on the situation of the Union industry in the Union market, its export performance was examined as a potential other factor that may explain the injury found.
Čeprav je bila analiza škode in vzročne zveze osredotočena na položaj industrije Unije na trgu Unije, je bil proučen tudi izvoz industrije Unije kot možen drug dejavnik, ki bi lahko pojasnil ugotovljeno škodo.
The analysis showed that the export sales to unrelated parties made by the Union industry remained modest (around 3 %) during the period considered.
Analiza je pokazala, da je bil izvoz industrije Unije nepovezanim stranem med obravnavanim obdobjem še naprej skromen (približno 3 %).
The decrease in export sales volume, from around 18000 tonnes in 2005 to around 7000 tonnes during the IP, may be explained by the decrease in production during the same period.
Zmanjšanje obsega izvoza s približno 18000 ton leta 2005 na približno 7000 ton v OP se lahko pojasni z manjšo proizvodnjo v istem obdobju.
However, the export price was higher than the price that the Union industry was charging to its customers on the Union market.
Vendar je bila izvozna cena višja od cene, ki jo je industrija Unije zaračunavala strankam na trgu Unije.
Hence, it was considered that the decrease in export volume cannot explain the level of injury suffered by the Union industry and in particular the significant drop in profitability during the IP.
Zato se je menilo, da z manjšim obsegom izvoza ni mogoče pojasniti stopnje škode, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, zlasti ne bistvenega zmanjšanja dobičkonosnosti v OP.
The trends in import volumes and prices from other third countries between 2005 and the IP were as follows:
Gibanja obsega uvoza in cen iz drugih tretjih držav med letom 2005 in OP so bila naslednja:
The main other third countries exporting HTY to the Union are Switzerland, Belarus, Japan and Thailand.
Glavne druge tretje države, ki izvažajo PVT v Unijo, so Švica, Belorusija, Japonska in Tajska.
As shown in the above table, the combined import volume from these countries was rather low in relation to the Union consumption and decreased by 45 % over the period considered.
Kot je prikazano v zgornji tabeli, je bil skupni obseg uvoza iz teh držav dokaj nizek glede na potrošnjo Unije in se je v obravnavanem zmanjšal za 45 %.
The average import prices remained stable and relatively high during the IP.
Povprečne uvozne cene so v OP ostale stabilne in razmeroma visoke.
On the basis of the above, it was provisionally concluded that the imports from these third countries did not contribute to the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega je bilo začasno sklenjeno, da uvoz iz teh drugih tretjih držav ni prispeval k znatni škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Imports from Korea and Taiwan
Uvoz iz Koreje in Tajvana
These imports are shown in tables 10 and 11 below:
Ta uvoz je prikazan v tabelah 10 in 11:
Total imports from Korea
Skupaj uvoz iz Koreje
As can be seen in the above table, the import volumes from Korea followed by and large a trend similar to that of consumption during the period considered.
Kot je razvidno iz zgornje tabele, je v obravnavanem obdobju obseg uvoza iz Koreje v glavnem sledil podobnemu trendu kot potrošnja.
Import volumes increased from 17542 tonnes in 2005 to 24580 tonnes in the IP.
Obseg uvoza se je povečal s 17542 ton v 2005 na 24580 ton v OP.
This lead to an increase in their market share from 7,9 % in 2005 to 11,9 % in the IP.
To je povzročilo povečanje tržnega deleža z 7,9 % leta 2005 na 11,9 % v OP.
It is however noteworthy that import volumes decreased substantially between 2007 and the end of the IP.
Poudariti pa je treba, da se je obseg uvoza bistveno zmanjšal med letom 2007 in koncem OP.
It is also noteworthy that, while the average import prices from Korea decreased by 15 % during the period considered, they remained higher than the average import prices from the PRC throughout the same period.
Prav tako je treba poudariti, da so bile povprečne uvozne cene iz Koreje, čeprav so se v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšale za 15 %, v tem celotnem obdobju višje od povprečnih uvoznih cen iz LRK.
Total imports from Taiwan
Skupaj uvoz iz Tajvana
As regards the imports from Taiwan, they increased from 7343 tonnes in 2005 to 8163 tonnes in the IP, thus by 11 %.
Kar zadeva uvoz iz Tajvana, se je ta povečal s 7343 ton v letu 2005 na 8163 ton v OP, to je za 11 %.
At the same time their market share slightly increased from 3,3 % in 2005 to 4 % in the IP.
Istočasno se je tržni delež nekoliko povečal s 3,3 % v letu 2005 na 4 % v OP.
Like the Korean imports, the Taiwanese import volume decreased considerably between 2007 and the end of the IP.
Podobno kot pri korejskem uvozu se je tajvanski obseg uvoza bistveno zmanjšal v obdobju med letom 2007 in koncem OP.
The average import prices from Taiwan went down by 14 % during the period considered but remained considerably higher than the import prices from the PRC during the same period.
Povprečne uvozne cene iz Tajvana so se obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšale za 14 %, vendar so v istem obdobju ostale precej višje od uvoznih cen iz LRK.
Based on the above, it cannot be ruled out that the imports from Korea and Taiwan may have contributed to some extent the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na podlagi navedenega ni mogoče izključiti, da je uvoz iz Koreje in Tajvana do neke mere prispeval k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
However, import volumes and prices during the IP do not appear to be at a level such as to break the causal link established between the dumped imports from the PRC and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Vendar se ne zdi, da bi obseg uvoza in cene v OP bile na taki ravni, da bi lahko prekinile vzročno povezavo, vzpostavljeno med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Other producers in the Union
Drugi proizvajalci v Uniji
The analysis of data pertaining to the Union market suggested that the other Union producers did not gain market share during the period considered.
Analiza podatkov, ki se nanašajo na trg Unije, je pokazala, da drugi proizvajalci Unije med obravnavanim obdobjem niso pridobili tržnega deleža.
The investigation did not point to any particular problem concerning the competition between Union producers or to any trade distorting effects which may explain the material injury found for the Union industry.
Preiskava ni ugotovila nobene posebne težave glede konkurenčnosti med proizvajalci Unije oziroma nikakršnih učinkov, ki izkrivljajo trgovino in bi lahko pojasnili znatno škodo, ugotovljeno za industrijo Unije.
Based on the above, it was provisionally concluded that the producers not included in the definition of the Union industry did not contribute to the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na podlagi navedenega je bilo začasno sklenjeno, da proizvajalci, ki niso vključeni v opredelitev industrije Unije, niso prispevali k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
The above analysis demonstrated that there was a substantial increase in the volume and market share of the low-priced dumped imports originating in the PRC over the period considered.
Zgornja analiza je pokazala, da sta se obseg in tržni delež nizkocenovnega dampinškega uvoza s poreklom iz LRK med obravnavanim obdobjem bistveno povečala.
In addition, it was found that these imports were made at dumped prices which were below the prices charged by the Union industry on the Union market for similar product types.
Poleg tega je bilo ugotovljeno, da je bil ta uvoz izveden po dampinških cenah, ki so bile nižje od cen, ki jih je industrija Unije zaračunavala na trgu Unije za podobne vrste izdelka.
This increase in volume and market share of the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC coincided with an overall increase of the demand in the Union during the period between 2005 and 2007 but also with the negative development in the market share of the Union industry during the same period.
Ta povečani obseg in tržni delež nizkocenovnega dampinškega uvoza iz LRK sta sovpadala s splošnim večjim povpraševanjem v Uniji v obdobju med letoma 2005 in 2007 ter tudi z negativnim razvojem tržnega deleža industrije Unije v istem obdobju.
Furthermore, between 2007 and the IP, when the demand in the Union market decreased, the Chinese exporters managed to increase their market share.
Poleg tega so med letom 2007 in OP, ko se je povpraševanje na trgu Unije zmanjšalo, kitajski izvozniki uspeli povečati svoj tržni delež.
At the same time a further negative development in the market share of the Union industry and in the main indicators of its economic situation was observed.
Istočasno je bil ugotovljen nadaljnji negativni razvoj tržnega deleža industrije Unije in glavnih kazalnikov gospodarskega stanja.
Indeed, over the period considered the surge in the low-priced dumped imports from the PRC, which were constantly undercutting the prices of the Union industry, led to a drop in the Union industry’s profitability by more than 16 percentage points, resulting in heavy losses in the IP.
Dejansko je v obravnavanem obdobju nenadna rast nizkocenovnega dampinškega uvoza iz LRK, ki je nenehno nelojalno zniževal cene industrije v Uniji, privedel do zmanjšanja dobičkonosnosti za več kot 16 odstotnih točk, kar je imelo za posledico velike izgube v OP.
The examination of the other known factors which could have caused injury to the Union industry revealed that these factors do not appear to be such as to break the causal link established between the dumped imports from the PRC and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Preiskava drugih znanih dejavnikov, ki bi lahko škodovali industriji Unije, je pokazala, da se ti dejavniki ne zdijo takšni, da bi lahko prekinili vzročno zvezo, vzpostavljeno med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Based on the above analysis, which has properly distinguished and separated the effects of all known factors on the situation of the Union industry from the injurious effects of the dumped imports, it was provisionally concluded that the dumped imports from the PRC have caused material injury to the Union industry within the meaning of Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation.
Na podlagi navedene analize, ki je ustrezno ločila učinke vseh znanih dejavnikov na položaj industrije Skupnosti od škodljivih učinkov dampinškega uvoza, je bilo začasno sklenjeno, da je dampinški uvoz iz LRK industriji Unije povzročil znatno škodo v smislu člena 3(6) osnovne uredbe.
In accordance with Article 21 of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether, despite the provisional conclusion on injurious dumping, compelling reasons existed for concluding that it was not in the Union interest to adopt provisional anti-dumping measures in this particular case.
V skladu s členom 21 osnovne uredbe je bilo proučeno, ali so kljub začasnemu sklepu o škodljivem dampingu obstajali tehtni razlogi, zaradi katerih bi bilo mogoče sklepati, da sprejetje začasnih protidampinških ukrepov v tem primeru ni v interesu Unije.
The analysis of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, including those of the Union industry, importers and users of the product concerned.
Analiza interesa Unije je temeljila na presoji različnih vpletenih interesov, vključno z interesi industrije Unije, uvoznikov in uporabnikov zadevnega izdelka.
The Union industry is composed of four producers located in different Member States of the Union, employing directly over 1300 people related to the product concerned.
Industrijo Unije predstavljajo štirje proizvajalci iz različnih držav članic Unije, ki neposredno zaposlujejo več kot 1300 ljudi pri proizvodnji zadevnega izdelka.
The Union industry has suffered material injury caused by the dumped imports from the PRC.
Industrija Unije je utrpela znatno škodo zaradi dampinškega uvoza iz LRK.
It is recalled that all injury indicators showed a negative trend during the period considered.
Opozoriti je treba, da so v obravnavanem obdobju vsi kazalniki škode zabeležili negativno gibanje.
In particular injury indicators related to the financial performance of the Union industry, such as cash flow, return on investments and profitability were seriously affected.
Zelo prizadeti so bili zlasti kazalniki škode, povezani s finančno uspešnostjo industrije Unije, kot so denarni tok, donosnost naložb in dobičkonosnost.
In the absence of measures, a further deterioration in the Union industry’s economic situation appears very likely.
Brez ukrepov se zdi, da je nadaljnje poslabšanje gospodarskega položaja industrije Unije zelo verjetno.
It is expected that the imposition of provisional anti-dumping duties will restore effective trade conditions on the Union market, allowing the Union industry to align the prices of HTY to reflect the costs of the various components and the market conditions.
Pričakuje se, da se bodo z uvedbo začasnih protidampinških dajatev na trgu Unije ponovno vzpostavili pošteni pogoji trgovanja, kar bo industriji Unije omogočilo uskladitev cen PVT tako, da bodo v njih upoštevani stroški različnih elementov in tržnih razmer.
It can be expected that the imposition of provisional measures would enable the Union industry to regain at least part of the market share lost during the period considered, with a further positive impact on its economic situation and profitability.
Pričakuje se lahko, da se bo z uvedbo začasnih ukrepov industriji Unije omogočila povrnitev vsaj dela tržnega deleža, ki ga je izgubila med obravnavanim obdobjem, kar bi dodatno pozitivno vplivalo na njen gospodarski položaj in dobičkonosnost.
It was therefore concluded that the imposition of provisional anti-dumping measures on imports of HTY originating in the PRC would be in the interest of the Union industry.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da bi bila uvedba začasnih protidampinških ukrepov na uvoz PVT s poreklom iz LRK v interesu industrije Unije.
Questionnaires were sent to ten importers in the Union.
Vprašalniki so bili poslani desetim uvoznikom v Uniji.
Only two importers, located in Germany and Spain, representing 15,4 % and 0,2 % respectively of the total imports from the PRC, cooperated in the investigation.
V preiskavi sta sodelovala samo dva uvoznika iz Nemčije in Španije, ki sta predstavljala 15,4 % oziroma 0,2 % celotnega uvoza iz LRK.
Regarding the first importer, the investigation showed that it imported only from the PRC and that almost its entire turnover related to the product concerned.
Glede prvega uvoznika je preiskava pokazala, da je uvažal samo iz LRK in da se je skoraj celoten njegov promet nanašal na zadevni izdelek.
In the worst case scenario an anti-dumping duty of 9 % would lead to a significant decrease in its profitability, and this company could become loss-making.
V najslabšem primeru bi protidampinška dajatev v višini 9 % privedla do znatnega zmanjšanja njegove dobičkonosnosti in bi lahko ta družba proizvajala z izgubo.
It is considered however that it could pass at least part of the cost increase to its customers, given its strong market position amongst certain large users.
Vendar se meni, da bi lahko z ozirom na svoj močan tržni položaj med nekaterimi velikimi uporabniki vsaj del povečanja stroškov prenesel na svoje stranke.
In addition, it could revert to other sources of supply, at least in the longer term.
Poleg tega bi se lahko preusmeril na druge vire nabave, vsaj dolgoročno.
As regards the second importer, the product concerned represented only a limited share of its total business (0-5 %) and any negative impact of the proposed measures is thus likely to be negligible.
Kar zadeva drugega uvoznika, je zadevni izdelek predstavljal samo omejen delež njegovega celotnega poslovanja (0 – 5 %) in je kakršen koli negativen učinek predlaganih ukrepov tako verjetno zanemarljiv.
Based on the information available, it was concluded that although the imposition of provisional anti-dumping measures would negatively impact one of the above mentioned importers, this importer should be in a position to pass at least part of the cost increase to its customers and/or shift to other sources of supply.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij je bilo sklenjeno, da čeprav bi uvedba začasnih protidampinških ukrepov negativno vplivala na enega od navedenih uvoznikov, naj bi bil ta uvoznik sposoben, da vsaj del povečanja stroškov prenese na svoje stranke in/ali da se preusmeri na druge vire nabave.
Therefore, the imposition of provisional measures should not have a significant negative impact overall on the importers.
Zato uvedba začasnih ukrepov na splošno ne bi smela imeti znatnega negativnega vpliva na uvoznike.
Users of HTY have shown a strong interest in this case.
Uporabniki PVT so pokazali velik interes za ta primer.
Out of the 68 users contacted, 33 cooperated in the investigation.
Od 68 kontaktiranih uporabnikov jih je 33 sodelovalo v preiskavi.
These cooperating users represented 25 % of the total imports from the PRC.
Ti sodelujoči uporabniki so predstavljali 25 % celotnega uvoza iz LRK.
These companies are located throughout the Union and are present in various industrial sectors, such as tyres and automotive applications, ropes and industrial applications.
Te družbe so iz vse Unije in so navzoče v različnih industrijskih sektorjih, kot so pnevmatike in uporaba v avtomobilski industriji, vrvi in industrijska uporaba.
For the sake of clarity and given that the imposition of provisional measures would impact users differently, depending on the sector where they operate, the impact of measures on users was analysed by grouping them into separate industrial sectors as described below.
Zaradi jasnosti in ob upoštevanju, da bi uvedba začasnih ukrepov različno vplivala na uporabnike v odvisnosti od sektorja, v katerem opravljajo dejavnost, je bil vpliv ukrepov na uporabnike analiziran tako, da so bili razvrščeni v ločene industrijske sektorje, kakor je opisano v nadaljevanju.
As regards the users present in the tyres sector, four questionnaire replies were received from tyre manufacturers.
Kar zadeva uporabnike v sektorju pnevmatik, so izpolnjene vprašalnike vrnili štirje proizvajalci pnevmatik.
According to the data provided by the tyre manufacturers, the share of the HTY in relation to the cost of production of a tyre was relatively limited, below 1 % on average, and the average profit related to the tyre manufacturing business amounted to around 2 %.
Po podatkih, ki so jih predložili proizvajalci pnevmatik, je bil delež PVT glede na stroške proizvodnje ene pnevmatike razmeroma omejen, v povprečju nižji od 1 %, povprečni dobiček dejavnosti proizvodnje pnevmatik pa je znašal približno 2 %.
None of the cooperating users were found to import the product concerned from the PRC.
Za nobenega od sodelujočih uporabnikov ni bilo ugotovljeno, da uvaža zadevni izdelek iz LRK.
Hence, should provisional anti-dumping duties be imposed, it is considered that these users should not be affected by measures on imports from the PRC.
Zato velja, da v primeru uvedbe začasnih protidampinških dajatev ukrepi za uvoz iz LRK na te uporabnike ne bi vplivali.
In addition, should any users in this sector import from the PRC, a number of alternative sources of supply exists.
Poleg tega obstajajo številni drugi viri nabave, če bi kateri koli uporabnik v tem sektorju uvažal iz LRK.
Regarding the automotive sector (mainly producing seatbelts and airbags), six questionnaire replies were received from these users.
Za avtomobilski sektor (ki v glavnem proizvaja varnostne pasove in zračne blazine) je izpolnjene vprašalnike vrnilo šest uporabnikov.
These six companies represented 5 % of the total imports of HTY from the PRC in the IP.
Teh šest družb je v OP predstavljalo 5 % celotnega uvoza PVT iz LRK.
Overall, it was found that on average the products where HTY is used represented less than 4 % of the total turnover of these companies and that the average profit achieved in this business was around 3 %.
Na splošno je bilo ugotovljeno, da so v povprečju izdelki, pri katerih se uporablja PVT, predstavljali manj kot 4 % celotnega prometa teh družb in da je povprečni dobiček, dosežen v tej dejavnosti, znašal okoli 3 %.
Furthermore, it was found that the six companies purchased HTY mainly from the Union producers, while only 11 % of their purchases were imported from the PRC.
Poleg tega je bilo ugotovljeno, da je teh šest družb kupovalo PVT v glavnem od proizvajalcev v Uniji in je uvoz iz LRK predstavljal samo 11 % njihove nabave.
Therefore, the imposition of provisional measures on imports from the PRC is unlikely to seriously affect the automotive sector overall since these companies were found to be profitable and the PRC was not the main source of supply.
Zato ni verjetno, da bi uvedba začasnih ukrepov na uvoz iz LRK resno prizadela avtomobilski sektor na splošno, saj je bilo ugotovljeno, da so te družbe dosegale dobiček in LRK ni bila glavni vir nabave.
Concerning the ropes manufactures, three questionnaire replies were received representing less than 1 % of the total imports from the PRC in the IP.
Kar zadeva proizvajalce vrvi, so izpolnjene vprašalnike vrnili trije proizvajalci, kar predstavlja manj kot 1 % celotnega uvoza iz LRK v OP.
The share of business using HTY was around 18 % of their total business and the average profit margin achieved in that business was around 8 % in the IP.
Delež dejavnosti, v kateri se je uporabljal PVT, je znašal približno 18 % njihove celotne dejavnosti, dosežena povprečna stopnja dobička v tej dejavnosti pa je v OP znašala okoli 8 %.
On this basis, it was estimated that the imposition of provisional anti-dumping duties on imports from the PRC is likely to only slightly decrease their profit margin.
Na podlagi tega je bilo ocenjeno, da bo uvedba začasnih protidampinških dajatev na uvoz iz LRK verjetno samo nekoliko zmanjšala njihovo stopnjo dobička.
The investigation also showed that the majority of the imports (66 %) were from the PRC during the IP while 20 % was originating in Korea.
Preiskava je prav tako pokazala, da je večina uvoza (66 %) v OP izvirala iz LRK, 20 % uvoza pa je izviralo iz Koreje.
