Given that cooperation from the PRC was low at around 46 %, it is considered appropriate that the countrywide dumping margin applicable to all other exporters in the PRC should be based on the most dumped transaction of the cooperating exporters.
Glede na to, da je bila stopnja sodelovanja LRK nizka, tj. približno 46 %, se šteje za primerno, da se stopnja dampinga na ravni države, ki se uporablja za vse druge izvoznike v LRK, določi na podlagi najvišje dampinške transakcije sodelujočih proizvajalcev.
On this basis the countrywide level of dumping is provisionally established at 52,2 % of the cif Union frontier price, duty unpaid.
Na podlagi tega je stopnja dampinga na ravni države začasno določena na 52,2 % cene CIF meja Unije brez plačane dajatve.
The complaint was lodged by the European Chemical Industry Council (CEFIC) on behalf of Oxaquim S.A. hereinafter ‘the Complainant’, a producer of oxalic acid in the Union, representing a major proportion of the total Union production during the IP.
Pritožbo je vložil Svet evropske kemijske industrije (CEFIC) v imenu družbe Oxaquim S.A. (v nadaljnjem besedilu: pritožnik), tj. proizvajalca oksalne kisline, ki je v OP predstavljal večinski delež celotne proizvodnje Unije.
A second Union producer, Clariant, did not object to the initiation of the investigation but decided not to cooperate.
Drugi proizvajalec Unije, tj. družba Clariant, ni nasprotoval začetku preiskave, vendar se je odločil, da ne bo sodeloval.
There is currently no other producer of the product concerned in the Union.
V Uniji trenutno ni nobenega drugega proizvajalca zadevnega izdelka.
On this basis the two producers Oxaquim S.A. and Clariant constitute the Union industry within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the basic Regulation, representing 100 % of the Union production.
Na podlagi tega industrijo Unije v smislu člena 4(1) osnovne uredbe predstavljata proizvajalca Oxaquim S.A. in Clariant, ki predstavljata 100 % proizvodnje Unije.
They will hereinafter be referred to as ‘the Union industry’.
V nadaljnjem besedilu bosta navedena kot „industrija Unije“.
All available information concerning the two producers Oxaquim S.A. and Clariant, including information provided in the complaint and data collected from the complainant before and after the initiation of the investigation, was used in order to establish the total Union production.
Za določitev celotne proizvodnje Unije so bile uporabljene vse razpoložljive informacije o proizvajalcih Oxaquim S.A. in Clariant, vključno z informacijami iz pritožbe in podatki, ki jih je pritožnik predložil pred začetkom preiskave in po njem.
On this basis, the total Union production ranged between 11000 and 15000 tonnes during the period considered.
Na podlagi tega je bilo ocenjeno, da je celotna proizvodnja Unije v obravnavanem obdobju znašala med 11000 in 15000 ton.
It was found that one of the Union producers used some of its oxalic acid production as an intermediate material for the production of oxalates (tetra-oxalate, acetosella and potassium bioxalates).
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je eden od proizvajalcev Unije določeno proizvedeno oksalno kislino uporabil kot vmesni material za proizvodnjo oksalatov (tetraoksalat, acetosella in kalijevi bioksalati).
This oxalic acid was simply transferred (without invoice) within the same company.
Ta oksalna kislina se je (brez računa) preprosto prenašala znotraj iste družbe.
This captive use of oxalic acid did not enter the free market and so is not exposed to direct competition with imports of the product concerned.
Ta oksalna kislina, ki je bila namenjena za lastno uporabo, ni vstopila na prosti trg in tako ni izpostavljena neposredni konkurenci z uvozom zadevnega izdelka.
By contrast, production destined for free market sales was found to be in direct competition with imports of the product concerned.
V nasprotju s tem pa je bilo za izdelke, namenjene prodaji na prostem trgu, ugotovljeno, da so v neposredni konkurenci z uvozom zadevnega izdelka.
In order to provide as complete a picture as possible of the situation of the Union industry, data has been obtained and analysed for the entire oxalic acid activity and it was subsequently determined whether the production was destined for captive use or for the free market.
Za čim celovitejši prikaz položaja industrije Unije so bili podatki pridobljeni in analizirani za celotno dejavnost v zvezi z oksalno kislino, pozneje pa je bilo določeno, ali so izdelki namenjeni za lastno uporabo ali za prosti trg.
For the following economic indicators relating to the Union industry, it was found that the analysis and evaluation had to focus on the situation prevailing on the free market: sales volume and sales prices on the Union market, market share, growth, export volume, prices, profitability, return on investments and cash flow.
Za naslednje gospodarske kazalnike, povezane z industrijo Unije, je bilo ugotovljeno, da se je treba za analizo in oceno osredotočiti na položaj, ki prevladuje na prostem trgu: obseg prodaje in prodajne cene na trgu Unije, tržni delež, rast, obseg izvoza, cene, dobičkonosnost, donosnost naložb ter denarni tok.
As regards other economic indicators however, it was found, on the basis of the investigation, that they could reasonably be examined only by referring to the whole activity.
Kar zadeva druge gospodarske kazalnike, pa je bilo v preiskavi ugotovljeno, da jih je mogoče smiselno preučiti le glede na celotno dejavnost.
Indeed, production (for both captive use and destined for the free market), capacity, capacity utilisation, investments, stocks, employment, productivity, wages, and ability to raise capital depend upon the whole activity, whether the production is captive or sold on the free market.
Izdelki (za lastno uporabo ali namenjeni za prosti trg), zmogljivost, proizvodna zmogljivost, naložbe, zaloge, zaposlenost, produktivnost, plače in zmožnost zbiranja kapitala so dejansko odvisni od celotne dejavnosti, ne glede na to, ali so izdelki namenjeni za lastno uporabo ali za prodajo na prostem trgu.
Given that oxalic acid is part of a CN code that also includes other products, it was not possible to establish import volumes on the basis of Eurostat data.
Glede na to, da je oksalna kislina del oznake KN, ki vključuje tudi druge izdelke, na podlagi Eurostatovih podatkov ni bilo mogoče določiti obsega uvoza.
Accordingly, consumption was established on the basis of import volume data provided by the complainant, cross-checked against the verified data provided by the exporting producers from the countries concerned, and the total sales volume on the Union market of the Union industry.
V skladu s tem je bila potrošnja določena na podlagi podatkov o obsegu uvoza, ki jih je predložil pritožnik in so bili navzkrižno preverjeni s preverjenimi podatki, ki so jih predložili proizvajalci izvozniki iz zadevnih držav, ter celotnega obsega prodaje industrije Unije na trgu Unije.
In view of the small number of suppliers and the need to protect confidential business information pursuant to Article 19 of the basic Regulation, the development of consumption during the period considered has been indexed.
Glede na majhno število dobaviteljev in potrebo po varovanju zaupnih poslovnih informacij v skladu s členom 19 osnovne uredbe je bil razvoj potrošnje v obravnavanem obdobju indeksiran.
In 2008 there was a sharp increase in total consumption in the Union by 24 %, while consumption decreased by 50 % during the following year before increasing again during the IP.
Leta 2008 se je celotna potrošnja Unije občutno povečala za 24 %, v naslednjem letu se je zmanjšala za 50 %, v OP pa se je spet povečala.
Overall, consumption in the EU market decreased by 5 % during the period considered.
Skupno se je potrošnja na trgu EU v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšala za 5 %.
The Commission examined whether imports of oxalic acid from the PRC and India should be assessed cumulatively in accordance with Article 3(4) of the basic Regulation.
Komisija je preučila, ali je treba uvoz oksalne kisline iz LRK in Indije oceniti kumulativno v skladu s členom 3(4) osnovne uredbe.
With regard to the effects of the imports originating in the PRC and India, the investigation showed that the dumping margins were above the de minimis threshold as defined in Article 9(3) of the basic Regulation and the volume of dumped imports from each of the two countries concerned was not negligible in the sense of Article 5(7) of the basic Regulation.
V zvezi z učinki uvoza s poreklom iz LRK in Indije je preiskava pokazala, da so bile stopnje dampinga nad pragom de minimis, kot je določeno v členu 9(3) osnovne uredbe, in da obseg dampinškega uvoza iz vsake od obeh zadevnih držav ni bil zanemarljiv v smislu člena 5(7) osnovne uredbe.
With regard to the conditions of competition between the dumped imports from the PRC and India, on the one hand, and between the dumped imports from the PRC and India and the like product, on the other hand, the investigation revealed that they were similar.
Kar zadeva konkurenčne pogoje med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in Indije na eni strani ter med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in Indije in podobnim izdelkom na drugi, je bilo v okviru preiskave ugotovljeno, da so podobni.
More specifically, the imported products are sold through the same sales channels and to similar categories of customers thus competing with each other and with the oxalic acid produced in the Union.
Natančneje, uvoženi izdelki se prodajajo preko istih prodajnih poti in podobnim kategorijam strank, s čimer so v konkurenci med sabo in z oksalno kislino, proizvedeno v Uniji.
In view of the above, it is provisionally considered that all the criteria set out in Article 3(4) of the basic Regulation are met and that imports from the PRC and India should be examined cumulatively.
Glede na navedeno se začasno šteje, da so vsa merila iz člena 3(4) osnovne uredbe izpolnjena ter da je treba uvoz iz LRK in Indije preučiti kumulativno.
Volume and market share of dumped imports from the countries concerned
Obseg in tržni delež dampinškega uvoza iz zadevnih držav
The investigation showed that the imports of oxalic acid from the PRC and India developed as follows:
Preiskava je pokazala, da se je uvoz oksalne kisline iz LRK in Indije razvijal na naslednji način:

PRC and India
LRK in Indija
Imports from the countries concerned increased by 4 % in volume during the period considered while total consumption in the EU market decreased by 5 % over the same period (see Table 1 above).
Obseg uvoza iz zadevnih držav se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za 4 %, celotna potrošnja na trgu EU pa se je v istem obdobju zmanjšala za 5 % (glej tabelo 1).
As shown in the Table above, there was also a significant gain in market share of 25 % between 2007 and 2008 and 10 % over the period considered.
Poleg tega se je med letoma 2007 in 2008, kot je prikazano v tabeli, tržni delež znatno povečal, in sicer za 25 %, v obravnavanem obdobju pa za 10 %.
Price of dumped imports and price undercutting
Cena dampinškega uvoza in nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen
Average prices of imports from the countries concerned developed as follows:
Povprečne cene uvoza iz zadevnih držav so se razvijale na naslednji način:
Price of imports from the PRC and India
Cena uvoza iz LRK in Indije
Prices increased by 16 % during the period considered.
V obravnavanem obdobju so se cene zvišale za 16 %.
It is notable, however, that import prices decreased by 20 % between 2008 and the IP, despite the increase in the prices of the main inputs (carbon sources and energy) in this period.
Vendar je treba opozoriti, da so se uvozne cene med letom 2008 in OP znižale za 20 % kljub zvišanju cen glavnih proizvodnih sredstev (viri ogljika in energija) v tem obdobju.
For the purposes of analysing price undercutting the weighted average sales prices of the Union industry to unrelated customers on the Union market, adjusted to an ex-works level, i.e. excluding freight costs in the Union and after deduction of discounts and rebates, were compared to the corresponding weighted average prices of the cooperating exporters from the PRC and India to the first independent customer on the Union market, i.e. net of discounts and adjusted where necessary to cif Union frontier price duly adjusted for customs clearance costs and post-importation costs.
Za analizo nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen so se tehtane povprečne prodajne cene industrije Unije, zaračunane nepovezanim strankam na trgu Unije in prilagojene na raven franko tovarna, tj. brez stroškov prevoza v Uniji ter po odbitku popustov in rabatov, primerjale z ustreznimi tehtanimi povprečnimi cenami sodelujočih izvoznikov iz LRK in Indije, zaračunanimi prvi neodvisni stranki na trgu Unije, tj. brez popustov in po potrebi prilagojenimi ceni CIF meja Unije z ustrezno prilagoditvijo zaradi stroškov carinjenja in stroškov po uvozu.
The comparison showed that during the IP the dumped product concerned originating in the PRC and India sold in the Union undercut the Union industry’s sales prices by 16,9 % to 34,6 %.
Primerjava je pokazala, da je v OP zadevni dampinški izdelek s poreklom iz LRK in Indije, ki se je prodajal v Uniji, nelojalno znižal prodajne cene industrije Unije za 16,9 % do 34,6 %.
This level of undercutting was combined with a negative price development on the market thereby leading to substantial price depression.
To stopnjo nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen je spremljal negativen razvoj cen na trgu, kar je prispevalo k znatnemu znižanju cen.
In accordance with Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation, the examination of the impact of dumped imports on the Union industry included an evaluation of all economic factors and indices relating to the state of the Union industry from 2007 to the end of the IP.
V skladu s členom 3(5) osnovne uredbe je preiskava učinka dampinškega uvoza na industrijo Unije vsebovala oceno vseh gospodarskih dejavnikov in indeksov, ki so povezani s stanjem industrije Unije od leta 2007 do konca OP.
The macroeconomic indicators (production, capacity, capacity utilisation, sales volumes, market share, employment, productivity, wages and magnitude of dumping margins) were assessed at the level of the Union industry, while microeconomic indicators (stocks, sales prices, profitability, cash flow, and return on investment, ability to raise capital and investments, production costs) were based on the information derived from the duly verified questionnaires submitted by the sole cooperating Union producer.
Makroekonomski kazalniki (proizvodnja, zmogljivost, izkoriščenost zmogljivosti, obseg prodaje, tržni delež, zaposlenost, produktivnost, plače in višina stopenj dampinga) so bili ocenjeni na ravni industrije Unije, medtem ko so mikroekonomski kazalniki (zaloge, prodajne cene, dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, donosnost naložb, zmožnost zbiranja kapitala in naložb ter proizvodni stroški) temeljili na informacijah iz ustrezno preverjenih vprašalnikov, ki jih je predložil edini sodelujoči proizvajalec Unije.
Taking into account the fact that the data for the injury analysis is derived mainly from one source only, data relating to the Union industry had to be indexed in order to preserve confidentiality pursuant to Article 19 of the basic Regulation.
Ob upoštevanju dejstva, da podatki za analizo škode večinoma izhajajo le iz enega vira, je bilo treba podatke, ki se nanašajo na industrijo Unije, indeksirati za ohranitev zaupnosti v skladu s členom 19 osnovne uredbe.
Total production
Celotna proizvodnja
Total production capacity
Celotna proizvodna zmogljivost
Total capacity utilisation
Celotna izkoriščenost zmogljivosti
The above Table includes data on the production, production capacity and capacity utilisation of the Union industry as well as, for 2007 and 2008, data of one other Union producer which ceased producing oxalic acid in 2008.
Navedena tabela vključuje podatke o proizvodnji, proizvodni zmogljivosti in izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti v Uniji, podatki za leti 2007 in 2008 pa vključujejo tudi podatke enega drugega proizvajalca Unije, ki je leta 2008 prenehal s proizvodnjo oksalne kisline.
Overall, during the period considered, production increased by 6 %.
Skupno se je proizvodnja v obravnavanem obdobju povečala za 6 %.
Due to the closure of the production facility of one other Union producer in 2008 the production capacity of the Union industry fell sharply in 2008 by 23 %.
Zaradi zaprtja proizvodnega obrata enega drugega proizvajalca Unije leta 2008 se je proizvodna zmogljivost industrije Unije leta 2008 občutno zmanjšala, in sicer za 23 %.
The combination of these two factors, i.e. increase in production volume and decrease in production capacity due to the closure of a production unit by the third Union producer from 2008, led to a significant increase in capacity utilisation of 38 % over the period considered.
Pojav obeh dejavnikov, tj. povečanja obsega proizvodnje in zmanjšanja proizvodne zmogljivosti zaradi zaprtja proizvodne enote s strani tretjega proizvajalca Unije leta 2008, je v obravnavanem obdobju povzročil znatno povečanje izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti, in sicer za 38 %.
The sales volumes for 2007 and 2008 include the sales of the Union producer that ceased production in 2008.
Obseg prodaje za leti 2007 in 2008 vključuje prodajo proizvajalca Unije, ki je leta 2008 prenehal s proizvodnjo.
While Union consumption decreased by 5 % during the period considered (see recital 58 above) the sales volume of the product concerned by the Union industry to independent customers on the Union market decreased by 14 % during the same period, which was translated by a loss in market share of 9 %.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je potrošnja Unije zmanjšala za 5 % (glej uvodno izjavo 58), obseg prodaje zadevnega izdelka industrije Unije neodvisnim strankam na trgu Unije pa se je v istem obdobju zmanjšal za 14 %, kar se je pokazalo v izgubi tržnega deleža za 9 %.
When looking at the development over the period considered, the fall of 14 % in the sales volume of the Union industry was far more pronounced than the decrease of 5 % in Union consumption.
Ob upoštevanju razvoja v obravnavanem obdobju je bil 14-odstotni upad obsega prodaje industrije Unije mnogo bolj izrazit kot 5-odstotno zmanjšanje potrošnje Unije.
As a consequence, the market share of the Union industry also decreased significantly by 9 percentage points during the same period.
Zato se je v istem obdobju tržni delež industrije Unije prav tako znatno zmanjšal, in sicer za 9 %.
Total number of employees
Skupno število zaposlenih
Total productivity (unit/employee)
Celotna produktivnost (enota/zaposlenega)
Total yearly wages
Skupne letne plače
The number of employees fell by 4 % during the period considered.
Število zaposlenih se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšalo za 4 %.
It should be noted that production of oxalic acid is not labour-intensive.
Opozoriti je treba, da proizvodnja oksalne kisline ni delovno intenzivna.
During the period considered the total productivity per employee increased by 11 %, as the production increased, whilst there was a fall in the number of employees.
Celotna produktivnost na zaposlenega se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečala za 11 % zaradi povečane proizvodnje, število zaposlenih pa se je zmanjšalo.
Over the total period considered wages declined by 1 %.
Plače so se v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju znižale za 1 %.
After an initial increase in wages of 21 % between 2007 and 2008, they fell continuously up to the IP.
Po začetnem zvišanju plač za 21 % med letoma 2007 in 2008 so se do OP stalno nižale.
The dumping margins are specified above in the dumping section.
Stopnje dampinga so navedene v oddelku o dampingu.
Furthermore, given the volumes and the prices of the dumped imports, the impact of the actual margins of dumping cannot be considered negligible.
Poleg tega učinek dejanskih stopenj dampinga glede na obseg in cene dampinškega uvoza nikakor ne more veljati za zanemarljivega.
Data relating to the cooperating Union producer (Microeconomic indicators)
Podatki, ki se nanašajo na sodelujočega proizvajalca Unije (mikroekonomski kazalniki)
The analysis of microeconomic indicators (sales prices and cost of production, stocks, profitability, cash flow, return on investment, ability to raise capital and investments) was carried out at the level of the complainant only as no data was obtained from the other EU producer as described in recital 70.
Analiza mikroekonomskih kazalnikov (prodajne cene in stroški proizvodnje, zaloge, dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, donosnost naložb ter zmožnost zbiranja kapitala in naložb) je bila izvedena le na ravni pritožnika, saj od drugega proizvajalca EU, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 70, niso bili pridobljeni nobeni podatki.

Average unit selling price
Povprečna prodajna cena na enoto
Average ex-works sales prices of the Union industry to unrelated customers on the Union market increased by 31 % during the period considered.
Povprečne prodajne cene franko tovarna industrije Unije, zaračunane nepovezanim strankam na trgu Unije, so se v obravnavnem obdobju zvišale za 31 %.
Average COP/tonne
Povprečni stroški proizvodnje/tono
The investigation revealed that the average cost of production of the cooperating Union producer had been relatively stable over the years due to a constant improvement in their production process, which was made possible only through heavy investments (see Tables 9 and 11 above).
V okviru preiskave je bilo ugotovljeno, da so bili povprečni stroški proizvodnje sodelujočega proizvajalca Unije skozi leta sorazmerno stabilni zaradi stalnega izboljševanja proizvodnega postopka, kar je bilo mogoče doseči le z velikimi naložbami (glej tabeli 9 in 11).
Given the nature of the product concerned, no stocks are held.
Zaradi lastnosti zadevnega izdelka se zaloge ne hranijo.
The product concerned dries quickly and then cakes and therefore producers only produce goods for immediate shipment.
Zadevni izdelek se hitro posuši in se nato strdi, zato proizvajalci proizvajajo le blago za takojšnje pošiljanje.
Profitability (in EU)
Dobičkonosnost (v EU)
Profitability for the like product was established by expressing the pre-tax net profit of the sales of the like product by the complainant as a percentage of the turnover of these sales.
Dobičkonosnost podobnega izdelka je bila določena tako, da je bil neto dobiček od prodaje podobnega izdelka pritožnika pred obdavčitvijo izražen kot odstotek prihodkov od te prodaje.
Consequently, the cash flow was negative in 2007 and, despite some improvement in 2008, it decreased between 2008 and the IP, thus weakening the financial situation of the cooperating Union producer.
Posledično je bil denarni tok leta 2007 negativen, pri čemer se je kljub določenemu izboljšanju leta 2008 zmanjšal med letom 2008 in OP, s čimer se je finančni položaj sodelujočega proizvajalca Unije poslabšal.
Total Investments
Skupne naložbe
The Table above shows that the complainant increased its investments in the product concerned, even when faced with low profitability.
V navedeni tabeli je prikazano, da so se naložbe pritožnika v zadevni izdelek povečale tudi ob nizki dobičkonosnosti.
The investments were mainly in the implementation of new production tools and the introduction of new production processes in order to improve efficiency.
Naložbe so bile večinoma usmerjene v uporabo novih proizvodnih orodij in uvedbo novih proizvodnih postopkov za izboljšanje učinkovitosti.
The increase in investments shows that the industry has not faced difficulties in raising capital, thus demonstrating the continued viability of the industry.
Povečanje naložb kaže na to, da industrija ni imela težav pri zbiranju kapitala, kar dokazuje njena nadaljnja sposobnost preživetja.
Investments increased by 177 % over the period considered.
Naložbe so se v obravnavanem obdobju povečale za 177 %.
