However, after the anti-dumping duties were repealed at the end of the ‘90s, Chinese imports entered the US market massively.
Vendar je kitajski uvoz po razveljavitvi protidampinških dajatev ob koncu 90-ih let v velikem obsegu vstopil na ameriški trg.
Domestic production almost disappeared in the following years.
Domača proizvodnja je v naslednjih letih skoraj izginila.
In 2011 it was estimated that 99 % of the bicycles sold in the US were imported; 93 % from the PRC and 6 % from Taiwan.
Leta 2011 je bilo po ocenah 99 % koles, prodanih v ZDA, uvoženih, od tega jih je bilo 93 % iz LRK in 6 % iz Tajvana.
Domestic production of bicycles in the US is estimated at approximately 56000 units per year with an annual consumption of about 16 million bicycles.
Domača proizvodnja koles v ZDA je ocenjena na približno 56000 enot na leto z letno potrošnjo okrog 16 milijonov koles.
The total US bicycles market (including sales of related parts and accessories) was valued at USD 6 billion in 2011.
Celotni trg koles ZDA (vključno s prodajo povezanih delov in dodatkov) je bila leta 2011 ocenjena na 6 milijard USD.
In conclusion, the Chinese bicycle industry is an export oriented industry with precedents of unfair pricing behaviour in several markets worldwide.
Kitajska industrija koles je izvozno usmerjena industrija, ki daje prednost nelojalnemu določanju cen na več trgih po vsem svetu.
Moreover, the findings in the anti-circumvention investigation confirmed the continued interest of the Chinese exporters in the Union market.
Poleg tega so ugotovitve v okviru preiskave proti izogibanju potrdile stalni interes kitajskih izvoznikov za trg Unije.
Moreover, this behaviour suggests that if the measures were repealed, the Union market would very likely be targeted by low priced Chinese imports with a view of taking over the domestic market.
Takšno obnašanje nakazuje, da bi bil trg Unije v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov zelo verjetno tarča kitajskega uvoza z nizkimi cenami s ciljem prevzetja domačega trga.
Therefore it can be concluded that the continued imposition of the measures is still necessary to offset the dumping.
Zato je mogoče skleniti, da je še vedno potrebno nadaljnje izvajanje ukrepov za preprečevanje dampinga.
Following the disclosure it was argued that the analysis overlooked the fact that the production growth in the PRC is being restricted by labour availability and that the PRC is losing its labour cost advantage to other south-Asian countries operating under preferential trade agreements.
Po razkritju se je trdilo, da je bilo v analizi spregledano dejstvo, da je rast proizvodnje v LRK omejena z razpoložljivostjo delovne sile in da LRK izgublja svojo prednost v zvezi s stroški dela v primerjavi z drugimi južnoazijskimi državami, ki poslujejo v skladu z ugodnejšimi trgovinskimi sporazumi.
In face of non-cooperation the claim was unverifiable and was therefore disregarded.
Zaradi nesodelovanja trditve ni bilo mogoče preveriti, zato se ni upoštevala.
As regards the grounds for opening the ex officio interim review, the investigation examined the following changes in the structure of the EU bicycle industry: (i) switch from the complete cycle of production to (partial) assembly operations using imported parts; (ii) change in the cost level due to the enlargement and relocation and setting up of new production facilities in Central and Eastern Europe; (iii) increasing change in the use of raw material from steel to alloy following consumer trends.
V zvezi z razlogi za začetek vmesnega pregleda po uradni dolžnosti so se v okviru preiskave proučile naslednje spremembe strukture industrije koles EU: (i) prehod iz popolnega proizvodnega ciklusa na (delno) sestavljanje z uporabo uvoženih delov; (ii) sprememba ravni stroškov zaradi širitve in premestitve ter vzpostavitve novih proizvodnih zmogljivosti v srednji in vzhodni Evropi ter (iii) vedno več sprememb pri uporabi surovine od jekla do zlitine glede na potrošniške trende.
As a result of the findings spelt out in recital 162, all the abovementioned developments are ongoing and of global nature and are therefore not likely to change in the foreseeable future.
V skladu z ugotovitvami, natančno opredeljenimi v uvodni izjavi 162, vsi zgoraj navedeni razvoji še potekajo in so globalnega pomena, zato se v bližnji prihodnosti verjetno ne bodo spremenili.
As regards the assessment of the likelihood of continuation of the injury, given the already fragile situation of the Union industry, described in recitals 184 to 187, it is also likely that the Union producers will not be able to resist the further price pressure that would be exerted by the Chinese dumped imports and, as a consequence, will be forced to exit the Union market with the consequence of a loss of employment and investments, technology and know-how (see recitals 247 and 248).
V zvezi z oceno verjetnosti nadaljevanja škode je glede na že tako občutljiv položaj industrije Unije, opisan v uvodnih izjavah 184 do 187, tudi verjetno, da se proizvajalci Unije ne bodo mogli upreti nadaljnjemu pritisku kitajskega dampinškega uvoza na cene, in bodo zato prisiljeni zapustiti trg Unije, zaradi česar bo prišlo do izgub zaposlitev, naložb, tehnologije ter strokovnega znanja in izkušenj (glej uvodni izjavi 247 in 248).
Therefore it can be concluded that there is a likelihood of continuation of injury should the measures be repealed in this case.
Zato je mogoče skleniti, da v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov obstaja verjetnost nadaljevanja škode.
Some parties argued that the Union industry is not suffering material injury as publicly available information suggests that its financial situation is good.
Nekatere strani so trdile, da industrija Unije ne trpi znatne škode, saj je po javno dostopnih informacijah njeno finančno stanje dobro.
It is to be noted that the financial situation of the Union industry is assessed based on the information gathered and verified during the investigation from a representative sample of Union producers.
Treba je poudariti, da je finančno stanje industrije Unije ocenjeno na podlagi informacij, zbranih in preverjenih med preiskavo ter temelječih na reprezentativnem vzorcu proizvajalcev Unije.
This assessment cannot be substituted by publicly available information related to some Union producers even if their production and sales value is allegedly large.
Te ocene ne morejo nadomestiti javno dostopne informacije, povezane z nekaterimi proizvajalci Unije, tudi če je njihova vrednost proizvodnje in prodaje domnevno velika.
Therefore, the findings of the investigation analysed in recitals 162 to 187 contradict the information submitted by these parties.
Zato so ugotovitve preiskave, analizirane v uvodnih izjavah 162 do 187, v nasprotju z informacijami, ki so jih predložile te strani.
Therefore, their arguments were considered unfounded.
Njihovi argumenti so se torej šteli za neutemeljene.
It was also argued that the continuation of the anti-dumping measures against the PRC would be discriminatory as imports from other third countries are allegedly dumped and causing injury in particular from Sri Lanka while no anti-dumping measures are in force on imports from these countries.
Trdile so tudi, da bi bilo nadaljevanje protidampinških ukrepov proti LRK diskriminacijsko, saj je uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav domnevno dampinški in povzroča škodo, zlasti uvoz s Šrilanke, medtem ko na uvoz iz teh držav niso uvedeni nobeni protidampinški ukrepi.
As a result of the anti-circumvention investigation, the anti-dumping measures have been extended to imports of bicycles, inter alia, from Sri Lanka.
Rezultat preiskave proti izogibanju je bil razširitev protidampinških ukrepov na uvoz koles med drugim tudi s Šrilanke.
In addition, no evidence was submitted showing that the genuine producers in the country concerned would be dumping.
Poleg tega ni bilo predloženih dokazov o tem, da bi dejanski proizvajalci v zadevni državi izvajali damping.
Therefore, the argument from the party was considered unfounded and it was rejected.
Zato se je argument strani štel za neutemeljenega in je bil zavrnjen.
G. CAUSATION
G. VZROČNA ZVEZA
In accordance with Article 3(6) and (7) of the basic Regulation it was examined whether the material injury suffered by the Union industry had been caused by the dumped imports concerned.
V skladu s členom 3(6) in (7) osnovne uredbe je bilo proučeno, ali je znatno škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, povzročil zadevni dampinški uvoz.
Known factors other than the dumped imports, which could at the same time have injured the Union industry, were also examined to ensure that the possible injury caused by these factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Proučeni so bili tudi drugi znani dejavniki poleg dampinškega uvoza, ki bi lahko v istem času prizadeli industrijo Unije, da bi se zagotovilo, da morebitna škoda, ki bi jo povzročili ti dejavniki, ni bila pripisana dampinškemu uvozu.
In particular the results of the anti-circumvention investigation were analysed.
Zlasti so bili analizirani rezultati preiskave proti izogibanju.
Effect of the dumped Chinese imports
Učinek dampinškega kitajskega uvoza
The Chinese imports declined over the period considered, representing 2,9 % of market share in the RIP.
Kitajski uvoz se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal in je v OPP znašal 2,9 % tržnega deleža.
This relatively low and decreasing market share is to be seen in the context of the circumventing imports from, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Tunisia (see recitals 223 and 224).
Ta sorazmerno nizek tržni delež, ki se zmanjšuje, je treba obravnavati v okviru izogibanja uvozu iz Indonezije, Malezije, Šrilanke in Tunizije (glej uvodni izjavi 223 in 224).
As mentioned in recital 160, it was concluded that imports from the PRC continued to significantly undercut the Union industry’s sales price on the Union market, thus exerting a significant pressure on the price level on the Union market.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 160, je bilo sklenjeno, da je uvoz iz LRK še naprej znatno nelojalno nižal prodajne cene industrije Unije na trgu Unije, s čimer je izvajal precejšen pritisk na raven cen na trgu Unije.
At the same time, most of the injury indicators showed a decreasing trend, in particular the production (– 19 %) and sales volume (– 9 %), capacity (– 5 %) and capacity utilisation (– 14 %).
Hkrati je večina kazalcev škode pokazala padajoči trend, zlasti pri obsegu proizvodnje (– 19 %), obsegu prodaje (– 9 %), zmogljivosti (– 5 %) in izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti (– 14 %).
The profitability of the Union industry declined throughout the period considered with the Union industry close to breaking even due to the Chinese price pressure.
Dobičkonosnost industrije Unije se je v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju zaradi kitajskega pritiska na cene zmanjšala, pri čemer je bila industrija Unije blizu pragu pokrivanja stroškov.
Because of this the Union industry was not able to raise the prices to profitable levels without losing significant market share.
Zaradi navedenega industrija Unije ni mogla povišati cen na dobičkonosno raven, ne da bi pri tem izgubila znaten tržni delež.
It is therefore concluded that the pressure exerted by the imports of bicycles at dumped prices had a decisive impact on the current vulnerable economic situation of the Union industry.
Zato se sklene, da pritisk zaradi uvoza koles po dampinških cenah odločilno vpliva na sedanji ranljivi gospodarski položaj industrije Unije.
Following the disclosure it was argued that the relevance of declining production levels and capacity utilisation was not adequately reasoned, in particular, in the light of the fact that the decline in production was considered to have no impact on profitability.
Po razkritju pomen zmanjševanja ravni proizvodnje in izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti po nekaterih trditvah ni bil ustrezno utemeljen, zlasti ker se je za zmanjšanje proizvodnje štelo, da nima nobenega učinka na dobičkonosnost.
It is noted that all the injury elements are relevant for the assessment of the economic situation of the Union industry whether or not they have an impact on the profitability levels in the particular case.
Treba je opozoriti, da so elementi škode pomembni za oceno gospodarskega položaja industrije Unije ne glede na to, ali imajo v konkretnem primeru učinek na ravni dobičkonosnosti.
As explained in recital 237 the decline in profitability and of other profit related indicators was not caused by the shrinking market but can be attributed to the continued pressure of dumped Chinese imports.
Kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 237, zmanjšanja dobičkonosnosti in drugih z dobičkom povezanih kazalnikov ni povzročil vedno manjši trg, temveč ga je mogoče pripisati stalnemu pritisku dampinškega kitajskega uvoza.
The argument is therefore rejected.
Argument se zato zavrne.
The same party also argued that the market share evolution of the Chinese imports was not adequately analysed as the analysis failed to address the sharp decline of imports over the period considered.
Ista stran je tudi trdila, da razvoj tržnega deleža kitajskega uvoza ni bil ustrezno analiziran, saj se v analizi ni obravnavalo strmo zmanjšanje uvoza v obravnavanem obdobju.
Also it was argued that the causality analysis failed to take into account the increasing price trends of these exports.
Trdila je tudi, da analiza vzročnosti ni upoštevala trendov rasti cen tega izvoza.
In response to this argument it is recalled that the declining volume of Chinese imports must be seen in the context of the findings of the parallel anti-circumvention investigation (see recital 216).
V odziv na ta argument je treba opozoriti, da je treba zmanjševanje obsega kitajskega uvoza obravnavati v okviru ugotovitev vzporedne preiskave proti izogibanju (glej uvodno izjavo 216).
The price trend of the Chinese imports established on the basis of Eurostat is not meaningful as it does not take into account the price development of the imports of the Chinese bicycles via the circumventing countries.
Cenovni trend kitajskega uvoza, ugotovljen na podlagi Eurostata, ni smiseln, saj ne upošteva razvoja cen uvoza kitajskih koles prek držav, ki se izogibajo ukrepom.
On these grounds, the argument was therefore rejected.
Zato je bil ta argument zavrnjen.
Effect of circumventing imports
Učinek uvoza, ki se izogiba ukrepom
As mentioned in recital 15, the anti-circumvention investigation established circumvention of the measures in force against the PRC by assembly operation and transhipment via Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Tunisia.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 15, se je v okviru preiskave proti izogibanju ugotovilo izogibanje veljavnim ukrepom proti LRK z dejavnostmi sestavljanja in pretovarjanjem prek Indonezije, Malezije, Šrilanke in Tunizije.
Based on these findings the difference between the volumes of imports from the countries in question reported in Eurostat and the volumes exported by known genuine producers i.e. those that qualified for exemption from the extended measures for the reasons set out in Regulation (EU) No 501/2013 were considered as imports circumventing the measures in force (‘circumventing imports’).
Glede na te ugotovitve se je razlika med obsegom uvoza iz zadevnih držav po poročanju Eurostata in obsegom izvoza znanih dejanskih proizvajalcev, tj. tistih, ki so bili upravičeni do izvzetja iz razširjenih ukrepov iz razlogov, določenih v Uredbi (EU) št. 501/2013, obravnavala kot uvoz, ki se izogiba veljavnim ukrepom („uvoz, ki se izogiba ukrepom“).
In the context of the causality analysis, these imports were considered as effectively coming from China and should therefore be considered together with the direct imports from China.
V zvezi z analizo vzročnosti se je ta uvoz štelo, da dejansko prihaja s Kitajske, in ga je treba zato obravnavati skupaj z neposrednim uvozom s Kitajske.
On this basis the volume of Chinese imports thus established reached 1904761 units in the RIP.
Na tej podlagi je tako obseg kitajskega uvoza v OPP znašal 1904761 enot.
In 2008, imports reached 2321240 units.
Leta 2008 je uvoz znašal 2321240 enot.
They were declining in 2009 to 1802101 units, i.e. by 22 % and increasing in 2010 to almost the same levels than in 2008, reaching 10,6 % of the market share.
Leta 2009 je upadel na 1802101 enot, tj. za 22 %, leta 2010 pa je zrasel na skoraj enako stopnjo kot leta 2008, in sicer je znašal 10,6 % tržnega deleža.
Finally, imports decreased again in the RIP by 13 %, reaching a market share of 9,5 %.
Uvoz se je ponovno zmanjšal v OPP, in sicer za 13 %, in je znašal 9,5 % tržnega deleža.
Over the period considered, import volumes decreased by 18 %.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je obseg proizvodnje zmanjšal za 18 %.
In the context of the shrinking market (see recital 153) the described decrease of import volumes did not result in a significant loss in market share as the latter has declined by only 0,8 % over the period considered.
V zvezi z vedno manjšim trgom (glej uvodno izjavo 153) opisano zmanjšanje obsega uvoza ni povzročilo znatne izgube tržnega deleža, saj se je slednji v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal le za 0,8 %.
Since the product mix of the imports from the PRC and the circumventing imports is unknown, it is not meaningful to compare prices of these imports with those of the Union industry on the Union market.
Ker sta prodajni program LRK in uvoz, ki se izogiba ukrepom, neznana, ni smiselno primerjati cen tega uvoza s cenami industrije Unije na trgu Unije.
Imports from the PRC together with circumventing imports from, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Tunisia
Uvoz iz LRK skupaj z uvozom, ki se izogiba ukrepom, iz Indonezije, Malezije, Šrilanke in Tunizije
Volume of imports (units)
Obseg uvoza (v enotah)
Following the disclosure some parties argued that the analysis of the impact of the circumventing imports was deficient as solely based on the volume effects and thus lacking any price comparison based on a product mix analysis.
Po razkritju so nekatere strani trdile, da je bila analiza učinka uvoza, ki se izogiba ukrepom, pomanjkljiva, ker je temeljila le na učinkih obsega in torej ni vključevala cenovne primerjave na podlagi analize prodajnega programa.
It was alleged that this lack of analysis was a result of procedural failure as the product mix analysis was omitted despite cooperation of exporting producers from the countries concerned.
Domnevno te analize ni bilo zaradi postopkovne napake, saj se kljub sodelovanju proizvajalcev izvoznikov iz zadevnih držav analiza prodajnega programa ni izvedla.
In addition, it was alleged that the imports from these countries into the Union concern low-cost children or other bicycles that do not compete with the bicycles produced in the Union.
Poleg tega uvoz iz navedenih držav v Unijo domnevno zadeva nizkostroškovna otroška in druga kolesa, ki ne konkurirajo kolesom, proizvedenim v Uniji.
In response to this argument it is noted that the product mix analysis could not have been carried out for the reasons explained in recital 192.
V odzivu na ta argument je treba poudariti, da analize prodajnega programa ni bilo mogoče izvesti iz razlogov, pojasnjenih v uvodni izjavi 192.
Also, the majority of the circumventing imports were transhipments in cases of which no information on the product mix was available.
Prav tako je bila v primerih, ko o prodajnem programu ni bilo na voljo nobenih informacij, večina uvoza, ki se je izogibal ukrepom, pretovarjanje.
Finally, it is noted that the Union producers were found to produce all product segments; therefore, the argument on alleged non-competing imports of the children and low end bicycles was found unsubstantiated.
Treba je poudariti, da se je za proizvajalce Unije ugotovilo, da proizvajajo vse segmente izdelka, zato se je argument o domnevnem nekonkurenčnem uvozu otroških in nizkostroškovnih koles štel za neutemeljen.
Imports from other countries
4.1 Uvoz iz drugih držav
Total imports from other third countries amounted to 6931333 units during the RIP.
Celotni uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav je v OPP znašal 6931333 enot.
This level of imports reflected a small increase of 1 % over the period considered.
Ta raven uvoza je izražala majhno povečanje v obravnavanem obdobju, in sicer za 1 %.
Given the contraction of the Union consumption, the market share of the imports from other third countries remained broadly stable, reaching 34 % in the RIP.
Glede na krčenje potrošnje Unije je tržni delež uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav ostal precej stabilen in je v OPP znašal 34 %.
Taiwan remained the main exporting country to the Union with a relatively constant market share over the period considered and representing 14 % of the Union consumption during the RIP.
Tajvan je bil še naprej glavna država izvoznica za Unijo, s sorazmerno nespremenjenim tržnim deležem v obravnavanem obdobju in je v OPP zajemal 14 % potrošnje Unije.
Thailand is the second largest exporting country into the Union.
Tajska je druga največja država izvoznica za Unijo.
Its market share decreased by 2 percentage points during the period considered, i.e. form 7 % in 2008 to 5 % in the RIP.
Njen tržni delež se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal za 2 odstotni točki, tj. s 7 % leta 2008 na 5 % v OPP.
As stated in recital 157, the prices in Eurostat do not take into consideration the various product mixes from each country and therefore only indexes are used to indicate the price trends.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 157, cene Eurostata ne upoštevajo različnih prodajnih programov vsake države in zato so za nakazovanje cenovnih trendov uporabljeni samo indeksi.
Since the product mix of the imports from other third countries is unknown, it is not meaningful to compare prices of these imports with those from the Union industry on the Union market.
Ker prodajni program uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav ni znana, ni smiselno primerjati cen tega uvoza z uvozom industrije Unije na trgu Unije.
However, it should be noted that only the imports from Taiwan exceed the volume of the Chinese imports (circumventing imports included).
Vendar je treba opozoriti, da le uvoz iz Tajvana presega obseg kitajskega uvoza (vključno z uvozom, ki se izogiba ukrepom).
In this regard, it should be noted that the imports of bicycles from Taiwan are usually aimed for the high-end market and no evidence was submitted otherwise.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da je uvoz koles iz Tajvana običajno namenjen trgu koles visokega cenovnega razreda, za kar ni predloženih dokazov o nasprotnem.
Therefore it is concluded that these imports cannot be considered as a cause of injury to the Union industry.
Zato je sklenjeno, da tega uvoza ni mogoče obravnavati kot vzrok za škodo industrije Unije.
Several parties claimed that imports from other third countries were made at lower prices than the Chinese imports and therefore the Chinese imports have not caused the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Več strani je trdilo, da so bile cene uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav nižje kot cene kitajskega uvoza in zato kitajski uvoz ni povzročil znatne škode industriji Unije.
This argument could not be accepted because the average import prices could not be determined on the basis of Eurostat for the reasons explained in recital 157 and therefore no conclusion could be drawn on this basis.
Tega argumenta ni bilo mogoče sprejeti, ker povprečnih cen uvoza na podlagi Eurostata ni bilo mogoče ugotoviti iz razlogov, pojasnjenih v uvodni izjavi 157, zato na tej podlagi ni bilo mogoče izpeljati sklepa.
Another party claimed that imports from third countries subject to General System of Preferences (GSP) from 1 January 2011 onwards are expected to increases (Cambodia and Bangladesh).
Druga stran je trdila, da se pričakuje, da se bo uvoz iz tretjih držav, ki je predmet splošnega sistema preferencialov, od 1. januarja 2011 povečal (Kambodža in Bangladeš).
However, the impact on import prices and quantities and the effect on the Union market cannot be evaluated a priori.
Vendar učinka na cene in količine uvoza ter vpliva na trg Unije ni mogoče oceniti vnaprej.
In addition, no information was available as to the ability of these countries to increase the production capacity and the sales volume to the Union market.
Poleg tega ni bilo na voljo nobenih informacij glede sposobnosti teh držav, da povečajo proizvodno zmogljivost in obseg prodaje na trgu Unije.
