As mentioned above, a significant number of converters also came forward later in the proceeding stating their opposition, but did not provide any verifiable data with regard to their consumption.
Kot je navedeno zgoraj, je znatno število predelovalcev pozneje v postopku prav tako izrazilo svoje nasprotovanje, vendar ni predložilo nobenih preverljivih podatkov v zvezi s svojo potrošnjo.
The cooperating import agent claimed during a hearing that over 80 % of the EU users are opposing the measures.
Sodelujoči uvozni agent je na zaslišanju trdil, da je več kot 80 % uporabnikov EU ukrepom nasprotovalo.
This information was however not sufficiently substantiated and could not be verified.
Vendar ta informacija ni bila dovolj utemeljena in je ni bilo mogoče preveriti.
An association representing European plastic converters (EuPC) stated during a hearing that it takes a neutral stance towards this proceeding.
Združenje, ki predstavlja evropske predelovalce plastike (EuPC), je na zaslišanju navedlo, da ima o tem postopku nevtralno stališče.
Although some of its members would oppose any measures, the current level of PET prices on the European market is not sustainable for the PET recycling companies.
Čeprav bi nekateri njegovi člani nasprotovali kakršnim koli ukrepom, sedanja raven cen PET na evropskem trgu za družbe za recikliranje PET ni trajnostna.
PET recycling companies (also represented by EuPC) would be in favour of measures.
Družbe za recikliranje PET (ki jih prav tako zastopa EuPC) bi ukrepe podprle.
However, at a later stage of the investigation, the association changed its position and expressed its opposition to the imposition of measures.
Vendar je v poznejši fazi preiskave združenje spremenilo svoje stališče in izrazilo nasprotovanje uvedbi ukrepov.
The association claimed that the imposition of measures would bring excessive costs to the EU plastic converting industry, which is mainly composed of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Združenje je trdilo, da bi uvedba ukrepov povzročila čezmerne stroške industriji predelave plastike EU, ki jo v glavnem sestavljajo mala in srednja podjetja (MSP).
The association argued that these SMEs would not be able to absorb higher PET prices, which would either force them to close their activities or encourage them to relocate outside the EU.
Združenje je trdilo, da bi ta MSP ne bila zmožna sprejeti višjih cen PET, kar bi jih prisililo v zaprtje njihovih dejavnosti ali spodbudilo, da bi se preselila ven iz EU.
These claims were not further substantiated at this stage.
Te trditve na tej stopnji niso bile nadalje utemeljene.
The total staff employed by the cooperating converters amounted to 1300 people, while the declared staff employed by the converters that came forward later in the proceeding would amount to further 6000 people.
Celotno osebje, ki ga zaposlujejo sodelujoči predelovalci, zajema 1300 oseb, prijavljeno osebje, ki ga zaposlujejo predelovalci, ki so se javili pozneje v postopku, pa zajema dodatnih 6000 oseb.
The import agent and his clients indicated during the hearing an employment level for converters of around 20000 people.
Uvozni agent in njegove stranke so na zaslišanju navedli stopnjo zaposlenosti za predelovalce, in sicer približno 20000 oseb.
The employment information remains to be verified.
Informacije o stopnji zaposlenosti je treba še preveriti.
On the basis of the information available, the PET used in the production of pre-forms amounts to between 70 % and 80 % of the total cost of production for converters.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij predstavlja PET, ki se uporablja v proizvodnji predform, za predelovalce med 70 % in 80 % vseh stroškov proizvodnje.
It is therefore a critical cost component for these companies.
Zato je bistveni element stroškov teh družb.
The investigation so far indicated that on average the cooperating converters are already making some losses.
Preiskava je do zdaj pokazala, da sodelujoči predelovalci v povprečju že poslujejo z nekaj izgube.
Given that the majority of converters are small and medium sized local companies, they may have in the short to medium term only limited possibilities to pass on any increase in their costs, in particular when their client (bottling companies) is a rather big player with a much better negotiating position.
Glede na to, da je večina predelovalcev malih in srednje velikih lokalnih podjetij, imajo ti lahko kratko- do srednjeročno le omejene možnosti za prenos kakršnih koli povečanj stroškov, zlasti kadar je stranka (družba za polnjenje) razmeroma velik udeleženec z veliko boljšim pogajalskim izhodiščem.
However, the contracts (normally negotiated every year) for selling pre-forms and/or bottles often include a mechanism for reflecting the variation of PET prices.
Vendar pogodbe (običajno se o njih pogajajo vsako leto) za prodajo predform in/ali plastenk pogosto vključujejo mehanizem za izražanje nihanja cen PET.
Converters and the cooperating import agent argued that measures would result in some bigger pre-form makers moving their standardised production lines to the countries neighbouring EU.
Predelovalci in sodelujoči uvozni agent so trdili, da bi zaradi ukrepov nekateri veliki izdelovalci predform preselili svoje standardizirane proizvodne linije v sosednje države EU.
Given that the cost of transportation of pre-forms over a limited distance is relatively low, this process is already happening to some extent.
Glede na to, da so stroški prevoza predform na kratki razdalji razmeroma nizki, ta proces v nekem obsegu že poteka.
Still, for the moment, considerations like proximity to the client or flexibility of deliveries appear to compensate for the advantages the neighbouring countries may offer.
Vendar se trenutno zdi, da so vidiki, kot je bližina stranke ali prilagodljivost dostav, pomembnejši od prednosti, ki jih predstavljajo sosednje države.
Given that the proposed level of measures is moderate, it is provisionally considered that the advantages of producing the pre-forms outside the EU should not outweigh the current drawbacks.
Glede na to, da je predlagana raven ukrepov zmerna, se začasno sklene, da prednosti proizvodnje predform zunaj EU ne bi smele prevladati nad trenutnimi negativnimi vidiki.
Moreover, given the transportation cost, the delocalisation is expected to be an alternative only for companies whose clients are located close to the EU borders, but not for converters that have their clients in other parts of the EU.
Poleg tega se pričakuje, da bo glede na stroške prevoza delokalizacija nadomestna možnost le za družbe, katerih stranke so zunaj meja EU, ne pa tudi za predelovalce, ki imajo stranke v drugih delih EU.
Given the considerations in the preceding recital and given that it is provisionally considered not yet economically mandatory for the pre-form makers to move out of the EU, this scenario is unlikely to happen.
Glede na vidike iz prejšnje uvodne izjave in glede na to, da je začasno sklenjeno, da se zaradi gospodarskega vidika izdelovalcem predform še ni treba seliti zunaj EU, so te okoliščine malo verjetne.
It can, thus, provisionally not be excluded that the imposition of measures will have a significant impact on the production cost of converters.
Tako ni mogoče začasno izključiti, da bo uvedba ukrepov znatno vplivala na stroške proizvodnje predelovalcev.
However, given the uncertainties as to the possibilities for the pre-form and/or bottle makers to pass on the increased costs to their customers, the impact on the profitability of converters and their overall performance cannot be clearly stated at this provisional stage.
Vendar glede na negotovosti v zvezi z možnostmi, da izdelovalci predform in/ali plastenk prenesejo povečanje stroškov na svoje stranke, vpliva na dobičkonosnost predelovalcev in njihove splošne uspešnosti v tej začasni fazi ni mogoče jasno določiti.
Bottlers
Polnilci
Six bottling companies including branches of Coca-Cola Co., Nestle Waters, Danone and Orangina cooperated with the investigation, i.e. submitted full questionnaire replies within the time limits.
Šest družb za polnjenje, vključno s podružnicami družb Coca-Cola Co., Nestle Waters, Danone in Orangina, je sodelovalo v preiskavi, tj. je v določenih rokih predložilo v celoti izpolnjene vprašalnike.
However, it is provisionally estimated at around 6000 people.
Oblika predloženih informacij ne omogoča enostavne določitve števila zaposlenih, ki so neposredno vključeni v proizvodnjo, v kateri se uporablja PET. Vendar se začasno ocenjuje, da je teh oseb približno 6000.
Based on the information available, it is estimated that the total bottling industry in the Union employs between 40000 and 60000 employees directly involved in the production using PET.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij se ocenjuje, da je v celotni industriji polnjenja v Uniji zaposlenih med 40000 in 60000 oseb, ki so neposredno vključene v proizvodnjo, v kateri se uporablja PET.
On the basis of the information available, the cost of PET in the total cost of the cooperating bottlers vary between 1 % and 14 %, depending on the cost of other components used in the production of their respective products.
Na podlagi razpoložljivih informacij se delež stroškov PET v celotnih stroških sodelujočih polnilcev giblje med 1 % in 14 % glede na stroške drugih elementov, ki jih uporabljajo v proizvodnji svojih izdelkov.
The information available indicates that PET tends to be a more important cost item for the mineral water producers (especially not branded), while for some soft drink bottling companies it would be marginal.
Razpoložljive informacije kažejo, da je PET običajno večji strošek za proizvajalce mineralne vode (zlasti tiste, ki niso zaščitene z blagovno znamko), medtem ko je za družbe za polnjenje z nekaterimi brezalkoholnimi pijačami to nepomemben strošek.
The information on the file shows that in some cases the PET cost may represent up to 20 % of the final price of the mineral water for the customers.
Informacije v dokumentih kažejo, da lahko v nekaterih primerih stroški PET predstavljajo do 20 % končne cene mineralne vode za stranke.
It is estimated that on average the cost of PET can constitute up to 10 % of the total cost of the bottling companies.
Ocenjuje se, da lahko stroški PET v povprečju predstavljajo do 10 % vseh stroškov družb za polnjenje.
Given the above, it is considered that any increase in prices for PET following the imposition of the proposed measures will only have a limited (less than 2 % cost increase) impact on the overall situation of the bottling companies, even if, as claimed, they would have difficulties in passing on the increased cost to their customers, which in any case is unlikely at least in the mid-term perspective.
Glede na navedeno se sklene, da bi imelo kakršno koli zvišanje cen PET po uvedbi predlaganih ukrepov le omejen vpliv na splošno stanje družb za polnjenje (manj kot 2-odstotno zvišanje stroškov) tudi, če bi te, kot trdijo, imele težave pri prenosu višjih stroškov na svoje stranke, kar vsaj srednjeročno ni verjetno.
Shortage of PET supply
Pomanjkanje ponudbe PET
Several interested parties argued that imposition of measures would result in a shortage of PET on the EU market and that the Union producers do not have sufficient capacities to meet the existing demand.
Več zainteresiranih strani je trdilo, da bi uvedba ukrepov povzročila pomanjkanje PET na trgu EU in da proizvajalci Unije nimajo dovolj zmogljivosti za odziv na povpraševanje.
It is noted in this respect that Union producers operated only at 69 % of their capacity in the IP and have sufficient spare capacity to replace the imports from the UAE and Iran, should this become necessary.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da so proizvajalci Unije v OP poslovali z 69 % svojih zmogljivosti in da imajo dovolj prostih zmogljivosti za nadomestitev uvoza iz ZAE in Irana, če bi bilo to potrebno.
However, the purpose of the duty should not be to discourage any imports but only to restore fair competition on the market.
Vendar namen dajatve ne sme biti odvračanje od uvoza, ampak le ponovna vzpostavitev poštene konkurence na trgu.
Moreover, other sources of supply are also available.
Poleg tega so na voljo še drugi viri dobave.
In addition, it is expected that the PET recycling industry would increase production if the price of virgin PET in the EU is maintained at a reasonable level and not allowed to drop because of unfair competition.
Pričakuje se tudi, da bi industrija recikliranja PET povečala proizvodnjo, če bi se cena primarnega PET v EU ohranila na razumni ravni in bi se preprečilo njeno zniževanje zaradi nelojalne konkurence.
Other arguments
Druge utemeljitve
The Iranian exporter argued that the imposition of measures against Iranian PET would have a disproportionate negative effect in view of the country's status as developing country and the fact that Iranian exporters already face serious disadvantages due to international sanctions.
Iranski izvoznik je trdil, da bi uvedba ukrepov proti iranskemu PET imela nesorazmerno negativen vpliv, ob upoštevanju, da je Iran država v razvoju in da se iranski izvozniki že spopadajo z resno škodo zaradi mednarodnih sankcij.
It is the Commission's constant practice to take anti-dumping actions against developing and developed countries alike whenever the legal requirements warrant such action.
Ustaljena praksa Komisije je, da uvede protidampinške ukrepe enako proti državam v razvoju in razvitim državam, kadar koli pravne zahteve utemeljujejo takšno ukrepanje.
Moreover, the fact that there are sanctions in place against Iran is an irrelevant consideration under the existing anti-dumping rules.
Poleg tega je to, da so proti Iranu uvedene sankcije, nepomemben vidik v smislu obstoječih protidampinških pravil.
To conclude, it is expected that the imposition of measures on imports from the UAE and Iran would provide an opportunity for the Union industry, as well as the other Union producers, to improve their situation through increased sales volumes, sales prices and market share.
Pričakuje se, da bi se z uvedbo ukrepov za uvoz iz ZAE in Irana industriji Unije in drugim proizvajalcem Unije omogočilo, da izboljšajo svoje stanje prek večjega obsega prodaje, višjih prodajnih cen in večjega tržnega deleža.
While some negative effects may occur in the form of cost increases for users (mainly converters), they are likely to be outweighed by the expected benefits for the producers and their suppliers.
Čeprav so možni nekateri negativni učinki v obliki zvišanj stroškov za uporabnike (zlasti predelovalce), bodo pričakovane koristi za proizvajalce in njihove dobavitelje verjetno večje.
Restoring fair competition and maintaining a reasonable price level in the EU will encourage PET recycling, thus, assisting in the protection of the environment.
S ponovno vzpostavitvijo poštene konkurence in ohranitvijo razumne ravni cen v EU se bo spodbudilo recikliranje PET, s čimer se bo prispevalo k varstvu okolja.
In light of the above, it is provisionally concluded that on balance, no compelling reasons exist for not imposing measures in the present case.
Ob upoštevanju navedenega se po premisleku začasno sklene, da v tem primeru ni nujnih razlogov za to, da se ukrepi ne bi uvedli.
This preliminary assessment may need to be revised at final stage, after the verification of the user questionnaire replies and further investigation.
To predhodno oceno bo na končni stopnji po preverjanju vprašalnikov, ki so jih izpolnili uporabniki, in nadaljnji preiskavi morda treba ponovno proučiti.
In view of the conclusions reached with regard to dumping, injury, causation and Union interest, provisional measures should be imposed on imports of the product concerned originating in the Iran and the United Arab Emirates in order to prevent further injury to the Union industry by the dumped imports.
Ob upoštevanju sklepov v zvezi z dampingom, škodo, vzročno zvezo in interesom Unije je treba uvesti začasne ukrepe za uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz Irana in Združenih arabskih emiratov, da se prepreči nadaljnja škoda industriji Unije zaradi dampinškega uvoza.
As far as imports of the product concerned originating in Pakistan are concerned, no dumping was provisionally found, as indicated above.
Kar zadeva uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz Pakistana, damping začasno ni bil ugotovljen, kot je navedeno zgoraj.
Consequently, no provisional measures should be imposed.
Zato ni treba uvesti začasnih ukrepov.
The provisional measures on imports originating in the UAE and Iran should be imposed at a level sufficient to eliminate the injury caused to the Union industry by the dumped imports, without exceeding the dumping margin found.
Začasni ukrepi za uvoz iz ZAE in Irana morajo biti uvedeni na stopnji, ki omogoča odpravo škode, ki jo dampinški uvoz povzroča industriji Unije, ne da bi ta stopnja presegla ugotovljeno stopnjo dampinga.
When calculating the amount of duty necessary to remove the effects of the injurious dumping, it is considered that any measures should allow the Union industry to cover its costs of production and obtain overall a profit before tax that could be reasonably achieved under normal conditions of competition, i.e. in the absence of dumped imports.
Pri izračunu zneska dajatve, ki bi bila potrebna za odpravo učinkov škodljivega dampinga, se sklene, da bi morali vsi ukrepi industriji Unije omogočati, da pokrije stroške proizvodnje in na splošno doseže dobiček pred obdavčitvijo, ki bi lahko bil dosežen v normalnih konkurenčnih razmerah, tj. če dampinškega uvoza ne bi bilo.
The Union claimed a 7,5 % target profit, as was used in the proceeding against the People's Republic of China.
Unija je zahtevala 7,5-odstotni ciljni dobiček, ki je bil uporabljen v postopku proti Ljudski republiki Kitajski.
However, during the period considered the Union industry never achieved such a profit (in fact it was never profitable) and it generally commented that it usually operates on rather low margins.
Vendar industrija Unije v obravnavanem obdobju nikoli ni dosegla takšnega dobička (dejansko nikoli ni bila dobičkonosna) in na splošno so bile predložene navedbe, da ima običajno razmeroma nizke stopnje dobička.
The highest profit achieved by two sampled companies during one year of the period considered was 3 %.
Najvišji dobiček, ki sta ga dosegli dve vzorčeni družbi v enem letu obravnavanega obdobja, je bil 3-odstoten.
In these circumstances, a 5 % was provisionally considered as the most appropriate target profit.
Glede na to je bilo začasno sklenjeno, da je 5-odstotni ciljni dobiček najustreznejši.
On this basis, a non-injurious price was calculated for the Union industry of the like product.
Na podlagi tega je bila izračunana neškodljiva cena za podobni izdelek industrije Unije.
The non-injurious price has been established by deducting the actual profit margin from the ex-works price and adding to the so calculated break even price the above-mentioned target profit margin
Neškodljiva cena je bila določena tako, da se je od cene franko tovarna odštela dejanska stopnja dobička, tako izračunani ceni na pragu dobička pa se je prištela navedena ciljna stopnja dobička.
Given that during the IP the raw material prices and consequently the PET prices on the Union market experienced significant variations, it was considered appropriate to calculate the injury elimination level based on quarterly data.
Glede na to, da so se v OP cene surovin in posledično cene PET na trgu Unije bistveno spreminjale, je bilo sklenjeno, da je ustrezno izračunati stopnjo odprave škode na podlagi četrtletnih podatkov.
UAE
ZAE
In the light of the foregoing and pursuant to Article 7(2) of the basic Regulation, it is considered that a provisional anti-dumping duty should be imposed on imports of the product concerned originating in Iran and the United Arab Emirates at the level of the lowest of the dumping and injury elimination level found, in accordance with the lesser duty rule.
Glede na navedeno in v skladu s členom 7(2) osnovne uredbe se sklene, da je treba uvesti začasno protidampinško dajatev za uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz Irana in Združenih arabskih emiratov, ki bo v skladu s pravilom nižje dajatve enaka ugotovljeni stopnji dampinga ali stopnji odprave škode, pri čemer se upošteva nižja.
On the basis of the above, and in accordance with Article 7(2) of the basic Regulation, it is considered that the proposed duty rate for the product concerned originating in Iran should be based on the injury elimination level 17 %.
Na podlagi navedenega in v skladu s členom 7(2) osnovne uredbe se sklene, da mora predlagana stopnja dajatve za zadevni izdelek s poreklom iz Irana temeljiti na 17-odstotni stopnji odprave škode.
Moreover, the proposed duty rate for the product concerned originating in the United Arab Emirates should based on dumping 6,6 %.
Poleg tega mora predlagana stopnja dajatve za zadevni izdelek s poreklom iz Združenih arabskih emiratov temeljiti na 6,6-odstotnem dampingu.
No provisional measures should be imposed on imports of the product concerned originating in Pakistan.
Noben začasni ukrep ne sme biti uveden za uvoz zadevnega izdelka s poreklom iz Pakistana.
In noted that an anti-subsidy investigation was carried out in parallel with the anti-dumping investigation concerning imports of PET for Iran, Pakistan and United Arab Emirates.
Opozoriti je treba, da je bila vzporedno s protidampinško preiskavo v zvezi z uvozom PET iz Irana, Pakistana in Združenih arabskih emiratov izvedena protisubvencijska preiskava.
Since, pursuant to Article 14(1) of the basic Regulation, no product shall be subject to both anti-dumping and countervailing duties for the purpose of dealing with one and the same situation arising from dumping or from export subsidisation, it was considered necessary to determine whether, and to what extent, the subsidy amounts and the dumping margins arise from the same situation.
Ker se v skladu s členom 14(1) osnovne uredbe za noben izdelek ne smejo uporabljati protidampinške in izravnalne dajatve za namene obravnavanja enih in istih okoliščin zaradi dampinga ali izvoznega subvencioniranja, je bilo sklenjeno, da je treba določiti, ali in v kakšnem obsegu subvencijski znesek in stopnje dampinga izhajajo iz istih okoliščin.
As concerns the subsidy schemes that constituted export subsidies within the meaning of Article 4(4)(a) of Council Regulation (EC) No 597/2009 of 11 June 2009 on protection against subsidised imports from countries not members of the European Community [3], the provisional dumping margins established for the exporting producer in Iran are partly due to the existence of countervailable export subsidies.
Kar zadeva subvencijske sheme, ki so pomenile izvozne subvencije v smislu člena 4(4)(a) Uredbe Sveta (ES) št. 597/2009 z dne 11. junija 2009 o zaščiti proti subvencioniranemu uvozu iz držav, ki niso članice Evropske skupnosti [3], so začasne stopnje dampinga, ugotovljene za proizvajalca izvoznika v Iranu, delno posledica izvoznih subvencij, proti katerim se lahko uvede izravnalni ukrep.
However, since the same injury elimination level applies for both the anti-dumping and the anti-subsidy investigations, no provisional anti-dumping duty is proposed against Iran.
Vendar proti Iranu ni predložena začasna protidampinška dajatev, saj za protidampinško in protisubvencijsko preiskavo velja enaka stopnja odprave škode.
As already mentioned at recital (15) above costs and prices of PET are subject to considerable fluctuations in relative short periods of time.
Kot je že navedeno v uvodni izjavi (15), stroški in cene PET v razmeroma kratkih obdobjih znatno nihajo.
It was therefore considered appropriate to impose duties in the form of a specific amount per tonne.
Zato se je sklenilo, da je uvedba dajatev v obliki določenega zneska na tono primerna.
This amount results from the application of the anti-dumping rate to the CIF export prices used for the calculation of the dumping margin.
Ta znesek izhaja iz uporabe protidampinške stopnje za izvozne cene CIF, uporabljene za izračun stopnje dampinga.
