Previous investigations and existing anti-dumping measures
Prejšnje preiskave in veljavni protidampinški ukrepi
In August 2001, by Regulation (EC) No 1676/2001 [9], the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film originating, inter alia, in India.
Svet je avgusta 2001 z Uredbo (ES) št. 1676/2001 [9] uvedel dokončno protidampinško dajatev na uvoz folije iz polietilen tereftalata (PET) s poreklom, med drugim, iz Indije.
The investigation which led to the adoption of that Regulation is hereinafter referred to as the ‘original anti-dumping investigation’.
Preiskava, ki je omogočila sprejetje navedene uredbe, je v nadaljnjem besedilu imenovana „prvotna protidampinška preiskava“.
The measures consisted of an ad valorem anti-dumping duty ranging between 0 % and 62,6 % imposed on imports from individually named exporting producers, with a residual duty rate of 53,3 % on imports from all other companies.
Ti ukrepi so bili v obliki protidampinške dajatve ad valorem v višini od 0 % do 62,6 % uvedeni na uvoz poimensko navedenih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, na uvoz vseh drugih družb pa je bila uvedena stopnja preostale dajatve v višini 53,3 %.
In March 2006, by Regulation (EC) No 366/2006 [10], the Council amended the measures imposed by Regulation (EC) No 1676/2001.
Svet je marca 2006 z Uredbo (ES) št. 366/2006 [10] spremenil ukrepe, uvedene z Uredbo (ES) št. 1676/2001.
The anti-dumping duty imposed ranged between 0 % and 18 %, taking into account the findings of the expiry review of the definitive countervailing duties carried out pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 367/2006.
Uvedena protidampinška dajatev je znašala med 0 % in 18 % ob upoštevanju ugotovitev pregleda zaradi izteka ukrepa dokončnih izravnalnih dajatev izvedenih v skladu z Uredbo (ES) št. 367/2006.
In August 2006, by Regulation (EC) No 1288/2006, the Council, following an interim review concerning the subsidisation of an Indian PET film producer, Garware, amended the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed on Garware by Regulation (EC) No 1676/2001.
Svet je avgusta 2006 po vmesnem pregledu glede subvencioniranja indijskega proizvajalca folije iz PET Garware z Uredbo (ES) št. 1288/2006 spremenil dokončno protidampinško dajatev, uvedeno za Garware z Uredbo (ES) št. 1676/2001.
In September 2006, by Regulation (EC) No 1424/2006 [11], the Council, following a new exporting producer request, amended Regulation (EC) No 1676/2001 in respect of SRF Limited.
Svet je septembra 2006 na zahtevo novega proizvajalca izvoznika z Uredbo (ES) št. 1424/2006 [11] spremenil Uredbo (ES) št. 1676/2001 v zvezi s SRF Limited.
The amended Regulation established a dumping margin of 15,5 % and a anti-dumping duty rate of 3,5 % for the company concerned taking into account the company’s export subsidy margin as ascertained in the anti-subsidy investigation which led to the adoption of Regulation (EC) No 367/2006.
Spremenjena uredba je za zadevno družbo določila stopnjo dampinga v višini 15,5 % in stopnjo protidampinške dajatve v višini 3,5 % ob upoštevanju stopnje izvozne subvencije za to družbo, kot je bila ugotovljena v protisubvencijski preiskavi, na podlagi katere je bila sprejeta Uredba (ES) št. 367/2006.
Since the company did not have an individual countervailing duty, the rate established for all other companies was applied.
Ker za družbo ni veljala individualna izravnalna dajatev, se je uporabila stopnja, določena za vse druge družbe.
In November 2007, by Regulation (EC) No 1292/2007 [12], the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of PET film originating in India following an expiry review pursuant to Article 11(2) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation.
Svet je novembra 2007 z Uredbo (ES) št. 1292/2007 [12] uvedel dokončno protidampinško dajatev na uvoz folije iz PET s poreklom iz Indije po pregledu zaradi izteka ukrepa v skladu s členom 11(2) osnovne protidampinške uredbe.
By the same Regulation, a partial interim review pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation, limited to one Indian exporting producer, was terminated.
Z isto uredbo se je v skladu s členom 11(3) osnovne protidampinške uredbe zaključil delni vmesni pregled, omejen na enega indijskega proizvajalca uvoznika.
In January 2009, by Regulation (EC) No 15/2009, the Council, following a partial interim review initiated by the Commission on its own initiative concerning the subsidisation of five Indian PET film producers, amended the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed on these companies by Regulation (EC) No 1292/2007.
Svet je januarja 2009 po delnem vmesnem pregledu glede subvencioniranja petih indijskih proizvajalcev folije iz PET, ki ga je Komisija začela na lastno pobudo, z Uredbo (ES) št. 15/2009 spremenil dokončno protidampinško dajatev, uvedeno za te družbe z Uredbo (ES) št. 1292/2007.
The request for a partial interim review pursuant to Article 11(3) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 19 of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation was lodged by Polyplex Corporation Limited, an exporting producer from India (the applicant).
Družba Polyplex Corporation Limited, proizvajalec uvoznik iz Indije („vložnik“), je vložila zahtevek za delni vmesni pregled v skladu s členom 11(3) osnovne protidampinške uredbe in členom 19 osnovne protisubvencijske uredbe.
The request was limited to the examination of the product scope as regards the clarification of whether certain product types fall within the scope of the anti-dumping and countervailing measures applicable to imports of PET film.
Zahtevek je bil omejen na proučitev obsega izdelka v zvezi s pojasnitvijo, ali nekatere vrste izdelka spadajo v obseg protidampinških in izravnalnih ukrepov, ki se uporabljajo za uvoz folije iz PET.
The applicant requested the exclusion of ‘siliconised polyester release liner’ (SPRL) in so far as it falls within the definition of the product concerned, from the scope of the current anti-dumping and countervailing measures on imports of PET film originating in India.
Vložnik je zahteval izključitev „silikonizirane snemljive zaščitne plasti iz poliestra“ („SPRL“), kolikor ta spada v opredelitev zadevnega izdelka, iz obsega trenutnih protidampinških in izravnalnih ukrepov na uvoz folije iz PET s poreklom iz Indije.
The applicant provided prima facie evidence that the basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics of SPRL significantly differ from those of the product concerned.
Vložnik je predložil dokaze prima facie, da so osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in kemijske lastnosti SPRL bistveno drugačne od lastnosti zadevnega izdelka.
Having determined, after consulting the Advisory Committee, that sufficient evidence existed to justify the initiation of a partial interim review, the Commission announced by a notice published on 9 September 2009 in the Official Journal of the European Union [13] (the Notice of Initiation) the initiation of a partial interim review in accordance with the provisions of Article 11(3) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 19 of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation limited to the examination of the product scope.
Po posvetovanju s svetovalnim odborom je Komisija ugotovila, da obstajajo zadostni dokazi, ki upravičujejo začetek delnega vmesnega pregleda, zato je z obvestilom, objavljenim v Uradnem listu Evropske unije9. septembra 2009 [13] („obvestilo o začetku“), v skladu s členom 11(3) osnovne protidampinške uredbe in členom 19 osnovne protisubvencijske uredbe začela delni vmesni pregled, ki je bil omejen na proučitev obsega izdelka.
In particular, the review had to determine whether or not SPRL is part of the product concerned as defined in the original investigation.
S pregledom je bilo zlasti treba ugotoviti, ali silikonizirana snemljiva zaščitna plast iz poliestra spada v zadevni izdelek, kakor je bil opredeljen v prvotni preiskavi.
The Commission officially informed the authorities of the Republic of India (the country concerned) and all other parties known to be concerned, i.e. known exporting producers in the country concerned, users and importers in the Union and producers in the Union, of the initiation of the partial interim review investigation.
Komisija je uradno obvestila organe Republike Indije („zadevna država“) in vse druge znane zadevne strani, npr. znane proizvajalce izvoznike v zadevni državi, uporabnike in uvoznike v Uniji ter proizvajalce v Uniji, o začetku preiskave v zvezi z delnim vmesnim pregledom.
Interested parties were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing and to request a hearing within the time limit set in the Notice of Initiation.
Zainteresirane strani so imele možnost, da pisno predstavijo svoja stališča in da v roku, ki je določen v obvestilu o začetku, zahtevajo zaslišanje.
The Commission sent questionnaires to all parties known to be concerned, and all other parties which made themselves known within the the time limit set out in the Notice of Initiation.
Komisija je poslala vprašalnike vsem znanim zadevnim stranem in vsem drugim stranem, ki so se javile v rokih, navedenih v obvestilu o začetku.
Questionnaire replies were received from the applicant, two other Indian exporting producers, four Union producers and two Union importers.
Izpolnjene vprašalnike je prejela od vložnika, dveh drugih indijskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, štirih proizvajalcev Unije in dveh uvoznikov Unije.
The Commission sought and verified all information deemed necessary for the purpose of the assessment as to whether there was a need for amendment of the scope of the existing anti-dumping and countervailing measures and carried out verification visits at the premises of the following companies:
Komisija je zbrala in preverila vse informacije, ki so bile po njenem mnenju potrebne za oceno, ali je treba spremeniti obseg obstoječih protidampinških in izravnalnih ukrepov, in opravila preveritvene obiske v prostorih naslednjih družb:

The investigation covered the period from 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2009 (‘review investigation period’ or ‘RIP’).
Preiskava je zajela obdobje od 1. aprila 2008 do 31. marca 2009 („obdobje preiskave v zvezi s pregledom“ ali „OPP“).
The product concerned is the same product as the one defined by Regulations (EC) No 367/2006 and (EC) No 1292/2007, namely polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film originating in India, currently falling within CN codes ex39206219 and ex39206290.
Zadevni izdelek je isti izdelek, kot ga opredeljujeta Uredbi (ES) št. 367/2006 in št. 1292/2007, in sicer folija iz polietilen tereftalata (PET) s poreklom iz Indije, uvrščena v oznaki KN ex39206219 in ex39206290.
FINDINGS OF THE REVIEW INVESTIGATION
UGOTOVITVE PREISKAVE V ZVEZI S PREGLEDOM
PET film is a non-self-adhesive film of polyethylene terephthalate.
Folija iz polietilen tereftalata (PET) je nesamolepilna folija iz polietilen tereftalata.
PET film is always produced from PET polymer and consists of a base film which may be subject to further treatment either during or after the production process.
Folija iz PET se vedno proizvaja iz polimera PET in sestoji iz osnovne folije, ki lahko gre v nadaljnjo obdelavo bodisi med proizvodnim procesom bodisi po njem.
Such treatment of the base film may typically include corona treatment, metallisation or chemical coating.
Takšna obdelava osnovne folije navadno vključuje koronsko obdelavo, metalizacijo ali kemične premaze.
PET film has specific physical, chemical and technical characteristics which distinguishes it from other films.
Folija iz PET ima posebne fizikalne, tehnične in kemične lastnosti, po katerih se razlikuje od drugih folij.
Some of the characteristics of PET film are, for example, its high tensile strength, the very good electrical properties, low moisture absorption and humidity resistance, low shrinkage and good barrier properties.
Nekatere takšne lastnosti folije iz PET so npr. velika natezna trdnost, zelo dobre električne lastnosti, nizka vpojnost vlage in odpornost proti vlagi, nizka krčljivost ter dobre barierne lastnosti.
In order to assess whether SPRL and other types of PET film should be considered as one single product or two different products, it was examined whether SPRL and other types of PET film shared the same basic physical and chemical characteristics.
Da bi ocenili, ali je treba SPRL in druge vrste folije iz PET obravnavati kot en sam izdelek ali dva različna izdelka, je bilo preverjeno, ali imajo SPRL in druge vrste folije iz PET enake osnovne fizikalne in kemijske lastnosti.
Moreover, the production process, differences in end-uses and interchangeability as well as differences in costs and prices were examined.
Poleg tega so bili preverjeni tudi proizvodni proces, razlike v končni uporabi, zamenljivost ter razlike v stroških in cenah.
Main arguments of the parties
Glavne trditve strani
The applicant claimed that the basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics of SPRL differ from those of the product concerned.
Vložnik je trdil, da so osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in kemijske lastnosti SPRL drugačne od lastnosti zadevnega izdelka.
In particular, the relatively low release force of SPRL and its low surface tension make the film slippery and consequently its surface becomes inactive to inks, coatings, adhesives and metallisation.
Zlasti zaradi relativno nizke lepljivosti SPRL in njene nizke površinske napetosti je folija spolzka, zato njena površina postane neaktivna do črnil, premazov, lepil in metalizacije.
On the other hand, the functionally active surface of other types of PET film makes it impossible to use them as release liners, since they would irretrievably stick to adhesive surfaces.
Po drugi strani pa drugih vrst folije iz PET zaradi funkcionalno aktivne površine ni možno uporabljati za snemljivo zaščitno plast, saj se jih ne bi dalo več odlepiti od lepljivih površin.
Consequently, the applicant argued that SPRL is not interchangeable in its applications with any other kind of PET film.
Zato je vložnik trdil, da SPRL glede uporabe ni zamenljiva z nobeno drugo vrsto folije iz PET.
The Union industry claimed that the applicant’s arguments relied on two successive sets of artificially limited comparisons.
Industrija Unije je trdila, da vložnikovi argumenti temeljijo na dveh zaporednih sklopih umetno omejenih primerjav.
First, the applicant compared SPRL against a narrow set of PET films, i.e. base PET film, and not against other types of coated PET film that are more comparable with SPRL.
Prvič, vložnik je SPRL primerjal z omejenim številom folij iz PET, tj. z osnovno folijo iz PET in ne z drugimi vrstami premazane folije iz PET, ki so s SPRL bolj primerljive.
Second, this allegedly limited comparison was carried out only with regard to a highly selective and limited set of physical and chemical properties.
Drugič, ta domnevno omejena primerjava je upoštevala le zelo selektiven in omejen nabor fizikalnih in kemijskih lastnosti.
The Union industry claimed that when comparing SPRL with a wide range of other types of PET film, and over a representative number of chemical and physical properties, it is clear that SPRL is the same product as other types of PET film and should remain within the scope of the anti-dumping and countervailing measures.
Industrija Unije je trdila, da primerjava SPRL s številnimi drugimi vrstami folij iz PET ter z reprezentativnim številom kemijskih in fizikalnih lastnosti jasno pokaže, da je SPRL isti izdelek kot druge vrste folije iz PET in mora ostati vključen v obseg protidampinških in izravnalnih ukrepov.
According to the Union industry, SPRL is effectively PET film subsequently coated with a silicone layer.
Industrija Unije trdi, da je SPRL dejansko folija iz PET, ki je pozneje premazana s plastjo silikona.
It is not conceptually different from other types of coated film, such as metallised film or film with an anti-static coating or film with barrier coating, and as such is clearly product concerned.
Konceptualno se ne razlikuje od drugih vrst folij s premazi, kot so metalizirana folija, folija z antistatičnim premazom ali folija z bariernim premazom, zato je jasno, da je kot taka zadevni izdelek.
In support for its claims, the Union industry provided a comparison of a number of different physical and chemical properties over a number of different types of PET film.
V podkrepitev svojih trditev je industrija Unije priskrbela primerjavo številnih različnih fizikalnih in kemijskih lastnosti številnih različnih vrst folije iz PET.
The investigation showed that the two characteristics mentioned in recital 27, i.e. the relatively low release force of SPRL and its low surface tension, are additional features compared to the basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics of PET film as defined in the original anti-dumping investigation [14] and mentioned in recital 24.
Preiskava je pokazala, da sta lastnosti iz uvodne izjave 27, tj. relativno nizka lepljivost in nizka površinska napetost SPRL, dodatni značilnosti v primerjavi z osnovnimi fizikalnimi, tehničnimi in kemijskimi lastnostmi folije iz PET, kot je opredeljena v prvotni protidampinški preiskavi [14] in navedena v uvodni izjavi 24.
In this respect, it should be noted that the basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics are the same for SPRL as for any other types of PET film.
S tem v zvezi je treba opozoriti, da so osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in kemijske lastnosti pri SPRL enake kot pri kateri koli drugi vrsti folije iz PET.
As regards the two characteristics specific to SPRL, i.e. low release force and low surface tension, it was found that these are not the characteristics of PET film as such, but rather the characteristics of its siliconised surface or effectively the characteristics of silicone.
Glede obeh lastnosti specifičnih za SPRL, tj. nizke lepljivosti in nizke površinske napetosti, je bilo ugotovljeno, da to nista lastnosti površine folije iz PET kot take, temveč značilnosti silikonizirane površine ali dejansko značilnosti silikona.
Coating with silicone, as well as coating with any other substances, changes some features of the surface of the film but does not change the basic physical, technical and chemical characteristic of the base PET film itself, which under the coating layer remains the same.
Premaz s silikonom kot tudi premaz s katerimi koli drugimi snovmi spremeni nekatere značilnosti folije, vendar ne osnovnih fizičnih, tehničnih in kemijskih lastnosti same osnovne folije iz PET, ki pod plastjo premaza ostane enaka.
While it is true that covering PET film with silicone results in a low release force of the surface and also in a low surface tension, a similar argument could be made for other types of coating, i.e. when covered with other types of coating the surface of PET film obtains other special characteristics.
Čeprav je res, da je rezultat prekrivanja folije iz PET s silikonom nizka lepljivost površine in tudi nizka površinska napetost, bi lahko podobno trdili za druge vrste premazov, npr. ko površina folije iz PET dobi druge posebne lastnosti po nanosu drugih vrst premazov.
In some cases coating may result in characteristics which make PET film suitable only for very specific applications.
V nekaterih primerih se zaradi premaza lahko pojavijo lastnosti, zaradi katerih je folija iz PET primerna le za zelo specifične uporabe.
Coating with silicone is by no means unique in this respect.
V tem pogledu nanos silikonskega premaza ni izjema.
Other special products with other types of coating include for example sealable films, anti-fog coated films, peeling/sealing films and co-polyester coated films.
Drugi posebni izdelki z drugimi vrstami premazov na primer vključujejo varljive folije, folije s premazom proti orositvi, folije za večkratno zalepljenje in folije s premazom iz kopoliestra.
All these types, however, share the same basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics and are part of the product concerned as defined in the original investigation.
Vendar imajo vse te vrste enake osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in kemične lastnosti ter so del zadevnega izdelka, kot je opredeljen v prvotni preiskavi.
