natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
The assessment was based on the information provided by the complainant, cross-checked with data provided by the cooperating Union producers.
Ocena je temeljila na informacijah, ki jih je predložil pritožnik in ki so bile navzkrižno primerjane s podatki sodelujočih proizvajalcev Unije.
The analysis of microeconomic indicators (average unit prices, employment, wages, productivity, stocks, profitability, cash flow, investments, return on investments and ability to raise capital) was carried out at the level of the sampled Union producers.
Analiza mikroekonomskih kazalnikov (povprečne cene na enoto, zaposlenost, plače, produktivnost, zaloge, dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, naložbe, donosnost naložb in zmožnost zbiranja kapitala) je bila izvedena na ravni vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije.
The table above shows that production decreased over the period considered despite consumption remaining stable throughout the same period.
Zgornja preglednica kaže, da se je v obravnavanem obdobju proizvodnja zmanjšala kljub stabilni potrošnji v istem obdobju.
Although the production capacity remained moderately stable over the period considered, the capacity utilisation followed the same declining trend of the production.
Čeprav je proizvodna zmogljivost v obravnavanem obdobju ostala zmerno stabilna, pa je izkoriščenost zmogljivosti sledila enakemu upadanju kot proizvodnja.
Sales volume on the EU market (tonnes)
Obseg prodaje na trgu EU (v tonah)
The Union industry sales volume decreased by 9 % over the period considered and its market share continuously dropped from 95,2 % in 2008 to 85,2 % during the IP.
Obseg prodaje industrije Unije se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšal za 9 %, tržni delež pa je nenehno upadal, in sicer s 95,2 % leta 2008 na 85,2 % v OP.
The drop in EU sales volumes and market share of the Union industry over the period considered should be seen in the context of stable consumption over the same period, as described in recital (85).
Zmanjšanje obsega prodaje in tržnega deleža industrije Unije v obravnavanem obdobju je treba obravnavati v okviru stabilne potrošnje v istem obdobju, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (85).
Data of the sampled Union producers (micro-economic indicators)
Podatki vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije (mikroekonomski kazalci)
(Euro per tonne)
(v eurih na tono)
The trend of the average sales prices (including branded and non-branded products) shows a decrease of 2 % over the period considered.
Trend povprečnih prodajnih cen (z vključenimi izdelki z blagovno znamko in brez nje) v obravnavanem obdobju prikazuje zmanjšanje za 2 %.
However, sales prices were not considered to be a reliable indicator of injury because they were largely affected by the prices of raw materials (mainly aluminium) which showed a similar trend over the period considered.
Kljub temu pa prodajne cene niso bile obravnavane kot zanesljivi kazalniki škode, saj so nanje močno vplivale cene surovin (večinoma aluminija), pri katerih je v obravnavanem obdobju prišlo do podobnega gibanja.
Overall, prices in 2010 and the IP were suppressed due to the undercutting described in recital (94) above.
Na splošno so se cene v letu 2010 in v OP zmanjšale zaradi nelojalnega nižanja cen, ki je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (94).
The number of employees decreased by 6 % over the period considered, although wages per employee increased slightly.
Število zaposlenih se je v obravnavanem obdobju zmanjšalo za 6 %, čeprav so se plače na zaposlenega rahlo povečale.
In addition the decrease of employees did not lead to an increase in productivity as the loss in sales volumes, as described in recital (99) above, was even stronger.
Poleg tega zmanjšanju števila zaposlenih ni sledilo povečanje produktivnosti, izgube pa so bile še večje, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (99).
Indeed, the productivity of the Union industry workforce, measured as output per person employed per year, decreased slightly over the period considered.
Tako se je produktivnost delovne sile v industriji Unije, merjena s proizvodnjo na zaposleno osebo na leto, v obravnavanem obdobju rahlo zmanjšala.
It reached its lowest level in 2009, after which it started to recover in the 2010, without reaching the initial levels.
Najnižjo raven je dosegla leta 2009, nato pa se je leta 2010 začela izboljševati, vendar ni dosegla začetne ravni.
In the IP the productivity returned to the 2009 lowest level.
V OP se je produktivnost vrnila na najnižjo raven iz leta 2009.
Closing stock as percentage of production
Končne zaloge kot delež proizvodnje
Although the sampled companies of the Union industry maintained their stocks at a low level using a production to order system, some common products were kept in stock.
Kljub temu da so vzorčene družbe iz industrije Unije obdržale svoje zaloge na nizki ravni po sistemu proizvodnje po naročilu, je nekaj običajnih izdelkov ostalo na zalogi.
The stock level increased significantly both in absolute terms and as percentage of production.
Raven zalog se je znatno povečala v absolutnem smislu in v odstotkih proizvodnje.
Over the period concerned, the end of year stock level increased from 6,7 % to 9,1 %.
V zadevnem obdobju se je raven zalog ob koncu leta povečala s 6,7 % na 9,1 %.
Profitability of the Union industry was established by expressing the pre-tax net profit of the sales of the like product as a percentage of the turnover of these sales.
Dobičkonosnost industrije Unije je bila določena tako, da je bil neto dobiček pred obdavčitvijo pri prodaji podobnega izdelka izražen kot odstotek prihodkov od te prodaje.
The profitability thus calculated reached its highest level in 2009 due to decreased purchase costs of the main raw material item (i.e. aluminium).
Tako izračunana dobičkonosnost je dosegla najvišjo raven leta 2009 zaradi zmanjšanih nabavnih stroškov glavne surovine (tj. aluminija).
Profit fell from 2009 onwards reaching 0,7 % in the IP.
Dobiček se je od leta 2009 zmanjševal in dosegel 0,7 % v OP.
These profitability figures cover all segments of the market, including the relatively profitable branded segment which was to a much lesser extent subject to competition from the low priced Chinese imports.
Ti podatki o dobičkonosnosti obsegajo vse segmente trga, vključno z razmeroma dobičkonosnim segmentom z blagovno znamko, ki jo je konkurenca nizkocenovnega kitajskega uvoza veliko manj prizadela.
Indeed, the private label segment alone was substantially loss-making in the IP.
Tako je zgolj segment zasebnih blagovnih znamk ustvarjal znatno izgubo v OP.
Ability to raise capital was not mentioned as a significant problem by the Union industry.
Zmožnost industrije Unije, da zbira kapital, ni bila navedena kot večja težava.
Cash flow, investments and return on investment (ROI)
Denarni tok, naložbe in donosnost naložb
The trend in cash flow, which is the ability of the industry to self-finance its activities, as well as return on investment, followed a similar negative trend as the return on turnover.
Gibanje denarnega toka, tj. sposobnost industrije, da sama financira svoje dejavnosti, in donosnost naložb sta sledila negativnemu gibanju, ki je bil enak donosnosti prihodkov od prodaje.
In 2008 an EU producer invested in extra storage facilities.
V letu 2008 je proizvajalec EU vlagal v dodatna skladišča.
In the other years of the period considered, no major investments were identified in respect of the sampled companies of the Union industry.
V drugih letih obravnavanega obdobja ni bilo ugotovljenih dodatnih vlaganj v vzorčenih družbah industrije Unije.
The dumping margins are specified above in the dumping section.
Stopnje dampinga so navedene zgoraj v rubriki damping.
Furthermore, given the volume and the prices of dumped imports from the PRC the impact on the EU market of the actual margin of dumping cannot be considered negligible.
Glede na obseg in cene dampinškega uvoza iz LRK vpliv dejanske stopnje dampinga na trg EU ne more biti zanemarljiv.
Conclusion on Injury
Sklepne ugotovitve o škodi
The investigation showed that many of the injury indicators pertaining to the economic situation of the Union industry deteriorated or did not develop in line with consumption during the period considered.
Preiskava je pokazala, da se je veliko kazalnikov škode, ki se nanašajo na gospodarski položaj industrije Unije, poslabšalo ali se ni razvijalo v skladu s potrošnjo v obravnavanem obdobju.
This observation particularly applies to the period from 2010 up to the end of the IP.
To velja zlasti za obdobje od leta 2010 do konca OP.
Over the period considered, in the context of a stable consumption, volume of imports from the PRC increased steadily and significantly.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je ob stabilni potrošnji obseg uvoza iz LRK enakomerno in znatno povečal.
At the same time, the Union industry sales volume decreased overall by 9 % and its market share dropped by around 10 percentage points.
Hkrati se je obseg prodaje industrije Unije skupaj zmanjšal za 9 %, njen tržni delež pa je padel za približno 10 odstotnih točk.
Also the Union industry's stock volume increased significantly, indicating its inability to sell the product.
Močno se je povečal tudi obseg zaloge industrije Unije, kar kaže na njeno nezmožnost, da bi izdelek prodala.
The low-priced dumped imports increased steadily over the period considered and undercut the prices of the Union industry significantly in the IP.
Dampinški uvoz po nizkih cenah je v obravnavanem obdobju enakomerno naraščal in nelojalno znatno nižal prodajne cene industrije Unije v OP.
Furthermore, the injury indicators related to the financial performance of the Union industry, such as cash flow and profitability were seriously affected in 2010 and the IP.
Poleg tega so bili v letu 2010 in v OP resno prizadeti kazalniki škode, povezani s finančno uspešnostjo industrije Unije, npr. denarni tok in dobičkonosnost.
In the light of the foregoing, it is concluded that the Union industry suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na navedeno se sklene, da je industrija Unije utrpela znatno škodo v smislu člena 3(5) osnovne uredbe.
In accordance with Article 3(6) and 3(7) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether the dumped imports originating in the PRC have caused injury to the Union industry to a degree that enables it to be classified as material.
V skladu s členom 3(6) in (7) osnovne uredbe je bilo proučeno, ali je dampinški uvoz s poreklom iz LRK industriji Unije povzročil škodo, ki jo je mogoče opredeliti kot znatno.
Known factors other than the dumped imports, which might have injured the Union industry, were examined to ensure that any injury caused by those other factors was not attributed to the dumped imports.
Poleg dampinškega uvoza so bili proučeni tudi drugi znani dejavniki, ki bi lahko povzročili škodo industriji Unije, da morebitne škode zaradi navedenih drugih dejavnikov ne bi pripisali dampinškemu uvozu.
Effect of the Dumped Imports
Učinek dampinškega uvoza
At the end of 2009 anti-dumping duties were imposed on jumbo reels of aluminium foil originating in the PRC.
Ob koncu leta 2009 so bile uvedene protidampinške dajatve na velike kolute aluminijaste folije iz LRK.
From this date imports of the product concerned (the downstream product) increased rapidly.
Po tem datumu se je uvoz tega izdelka (s konca proizvodne verige) hitro povečal.
These increases coincide with a deterioration of the situation of the Union industry.
To povečanje sovpada s poslabšanjem razmer v industriji Unije.
The investigation showed that the Union consumption remained stable over the period considered, while the volume of dumped imports from the PRC increased dramatically by over 200 %.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je potrošnja Unije v obravnavanem obdobju ostala stabilna, obseg dampinškega uvoza iz LRK pa se je močno povečal, čez 200 %.
The market share of these imports also increased from 4,5 % in 2008 to 13,4 % in the IP (i.e. by around 9 percentage points).
Povečal se je tudi tržni delež tega uvoza s 4,5 % leta 2008 na 13,4 % v OP (tj. za približno 9 odstotnih točk).
At the same time, sales volume of the Union industry decreased by 9 % and market share dropped also by 9 percentage points, from 95,2 % in 2008 to 85,2 % in the IP.
Hkrati se je obseg prodaje industrije Unije zmanjšal za 9 %, tržni delež pa je padel za 9 odstotnih točk, s 95,2 % leta 2008 na 85,2 % v OP.
With regard to the price pressure, it should be highlighted that the Chinese exporting producers undercut the Union industry in the IP.
V zvezi s cenovnim pritiskom je treba poudariti, da so kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki nelojalno nižali prodajne cene industrije Unije v OP.
The price pressure at increasing volumes allowed the Chinese exporting producers to win contracts with major customers (retailers and wholesalers).
Cenovni pritisk je pri večjih obsegih omogočil kitajskim proizvajalcem izvoznikom, da so sklenili pogodbe z večjimi strankami (prodajalci na drobno ali na debelo).
For contracts maintained the Union industry had to forego price increases which it needed to offset increases in aluminium prices.
Pri pogodbah, ki jih je industrija Unije obdržala, se je morala odreči višanju cen, s čimer je morala kompenzirati višanje cen aluminija.
Undercutting in the IP was around 10 % and in that year the Union industry raised average prices by 3 % to reflect increased raw material costs, whereas the Chinese exporting producers reduced their prices on the EU market by around 3 % (see Table 3).
Nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen v OP je znašalo približno 10 %, zato je v tem letu industrija Unije dvignila povprečne cene za 3 %, da bi odražale povečane stroške surovin, vendar pa so kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki znižali cene na trgu EU za približno 3 % (glej preglednico 3).
This resulted in a significant deterioration in profitability of the Union industry.
Posledično je prišlo do občutnega poslabšanja dobičkonosnosti industrije Unije.
Based on the above it is concluded that the large increase of the dumped imports from the PRC at prices undercutting those of the Union industry have had a determining role in the material injury suffered by the Union industry, which is reflected in particular in its poor financial situation, in the drop in sales volume and in market share and in the deterioration of many of the injury indicators.
Na podlagi navedenega je bilo ugotovljeno, da je bilo močno povečanje dampinškega uvoza iz LRK po cenah, ki so nelojalno nižale prodajne cene industrije Unije, odločilno pri znatni škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, ki se odraža zlasti s slabim finančnim stanjem, padcem obsega prodaje in tržnega deleža ter poslabšanjem več kazalnikov škode.
Effect of Other Factors
Učinek drugih dejavnikov
The quantity and price trends were supplied from the complainant based on Eurostat data.
Gibanje količin in cen je predložil pritožnik in temeljijo na podatkih Eurostata.
Imports from third countries (mainly India, Russia, Taiwan and Turkey) increased by 300 % over the period considered.
Uvoz iz tretjih držav (večinoma Indija, Rusija, Tajvan in Turčija) se je v obravnavanem obdobju povečal za 300 %.
However, the total EU market share of these imports still remains marginal.
Kljub temu pa skupni tržni delež uvoza EU še vedno ostaja zanemarljiv.
Therefore, they cannot have contributed to the injury suffered by the Union industry during the IP.
Zato ni mogel prispevati k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije v OP.
Export volumes and prices
Obseg izvoza in cene
The volume of exports of the sampled Union producers during the period considered is shown in the table below.
Obseg izvoza vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije v obravnavanem obdobju je prikazan v preglednici spodaj.
The quantity and price trends are verified figures from the sampled producers.
Podatki o gibanju količin in cen so bili preverjeni pri vzorčenih proizvajalcih.
Exports of the Sampled Union Producers
Izvoz vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije
EU Export volume
Obseg izvoza EU
Exports as percentage of production
Izvoz kot delež proizvodnje
The sampled producers' export volumes were not significant over the period considered, never representing more than 2 % of the produced volumes.
Obseg izvoza vzorčenih proizvajalcev v obravnavanem obdobju ni bil velik in nikoli ni predstavljal več kot 2 % proizvedenega obsega.
They followed a trend similar to that of the sales volumes in the European market.
Ujemal se je z gibanjem, podobnim obsegu prodaje na evropskem trgu.
In view of their limited volumes, the development of exports of the Union industry did not contribute to the material injury suffered.
Spreminjanje izvoza zaradi majhnega obsega industrije Unije ni prispevalo k znatni škodi.
The economic crisis did not produce any contraction of the Union consumption during the period considered.
Gospodarska kriza v obravnavanem obdobju ni povzročila zmanjšanja potrošnje Unije.
As could be expected for non-luxury household products, the financial crisis had no impact on consumption of AHF which remains a very stable product in the food processing and packaging industry.
Kot bi lahko pričakovali pri neluksuznih izdelkih za gospodinjstvo, finančna kriza ni imela vpliva na potrošnjo AHF, ta izdelek ostaja v industriji predelave in pakiranja prehrambenih izdelkov zelo stabilen.
Thus, the economic crisis did not contribute to the injury suffered by the Union industry during the IP.
Gospodarska kriza zato ni prispevala k škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije v OP.
Competition on the Union market
Konkurenca na trgu Unije
Competition on the Union market is strong bearing in mind that the Union industry is quite diverse (there are over 30 producers) and that one of their main customers is the powerful retail sector.
Konkurenca na trgu Unije je močna ob upoštevanju, da je industrija Unije precej raznolika (ima več kot 30 proizvajalcev) in da je močen maloprodajni sektor eden izmed njenih glavnih strank.
Over many years the major European Union retailers have developed their own brands (private labels) which in respect of AHF has gradually reduced the volume of sales of the producers own brands.
V mnogo letih je večina prodajalcev na drobno Evropske unije razvila lastne (zasebne) blagovne znamke, ki so v primeru AHF postopoma zmanjšale obseg prodaje lastnih blagovnih znamk proizvajalcev.
This has been detrimental to the Union industry producers which have suffered falls in sales of the more profitable branded segment and forced them into greater competition with each other in the increasing private label segment.
To je proizvajalcem industrije Unije škodilo in utrpeli so upad prodaje bolj dobičkonosnega segmenta blagovnih znamk ter so bili ob večanju segmenta zasebnih blagovnih znamk prisiljeni v večjo medsebojno konkurenčnost.
However, this development has been a gradual process over many years and the investigation has shown that the private label business has only increased from 83 % to 84 % from 2010 to the IP.
To spreminjanje je postopoma trajalo več let, preiskava pa je pokazala, da so se posli z zasebnimi blagovnimi znamkami povečali zgolj s 83 % na 84 % od leta 2010 do OP.
Therefore although this increase will have had a small impact on the EU producers it does not explain the magnitude of the injurious trends experienced by them.
Zato kljub dejstvu, da je imelo to povečanje majhen vpliv na proizvajalce EU, to ne pojasni obsega škodljivih gibanj, ki so jih občutili.
Development of the Union industry cost of production
Spreminjanje proizvodnih stroškov industrije Unije
It was argued by interested parties that fluctuations in the cost of production, mainly the aluminium price, contributed to the injury.
Zainteresirane strani so bile mnenja, da je nihanje stroškov proizvodnje prispevalo k škodi predvsem cene aluminija.
The cost of production of AHF is closely linked to the price development of aluminium the main raw material used to produce this product.
Proizvodni stroški AHF so tesno povezani s spreminjanjem cen aluminija, ki je glavna surovina za proizvodnjo tega izdelka.
The LME is the worldwide benchmark for aluminium prices.
Borza LME je svetovna referenca za cene aluminija.
Development of LME average aluminium prices
Spreminjanje povprečnih cen aluminija na borzi LME
Source: LME
Vir: borza LME
LME cash average price per tonne in USD
Povprečna gotovinska cena na borzi LME na tono v USD
However, the AHF industry normally sets its prices on an LME benchmark basis plus a margin to cover transformation costs and profit.
Industrija AHF običajno določi cene na osnovi referenc borze LME in doda stopnjo za kritje stroškov predelave in dobiček.
This means that under normal circumstances fluctuations in the LME benchmark do not have a big impact on the situation of the AHF industry as prices of the finished products move in line with LME prices.
To pomeni, da v normalnih okoliščinah nihanja referenc borze LME nimajo velikega vpliva na razmere v industriji AHF, saj se cene končnih izdelkov gibajo skladno s cenami na borzi LME.
In fact the Union industry has always existed in an environment of fluctuating aluminium prices.
Pravzaprav je bila industrija Unije vedno v okolju, kjer so se cene aluminija spreminjale.
It was also argued that the Union industry has inefficient equipment which contributed to the injury.
Izraženo je bilo tudi mnenje, da industrija Unije nima dovolj opreme, kar naj bi prispevalo k škodi.
It must be said that the investigation did not support this view and that in fact EU and Chinese transformation costs as a whole were quite similar.
Treba je poudariti, da preiskava tega mnenja ni potrdila ter da so bili stroški predelave EU in Kitajske v celoti zelo podobni.
Furthermore any such inefficiency would mean that Union industry profitability would have been low for many years and this kind of claim does not explain the loss of market share, sales volume and profitability which occurred from 2009 to the IP.
Poleg tega bi neučinkovitost take vrste pomenila, da je dobičkonosnost industrije Unije nizka že več let, vendar pa ta trditev ne pojasni izgube tržnega deleža, obsega prodaje in dobičkonosnosti, do katere je prišlo med letom 2009 in OP.
In view of the above, the fluctuating aluminium prices or the alleged lack of production efficiency cannot be considered a cause of the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Glede na zgoraj navedeno, nihanja cen aluminija ali domnevnega pomanjkanja proizvodne učinkovitosti ne moremo šteti kot razlog za škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
As mentioned above the capacity utilisation of the European producers was relatively low over the period considered.
Kot je bilo navedeno, je bila izkoriščenost zmogljivosti evropskih proizvajalcev v obravnavanem obdobju razmeroma nizka.
However, as the Union producers are able to use the same machinery for rewinding other products (such as cling film) the capacity utilisation figures are not considered to be a major causation factor.
Ker pa so proizvajalci Unije lahko uporabljali iste naprave tudi za previjanje drugih izdelkov (kot npr. folije za hrano), podatki o izkoriščenost zmogljivosti niso glavni dejavnik vzročne zveze.
Also the capacity utilisation figures were already quite low in 2008 and 2009 when profitability rates and the situation of the industry in general were satisfactory.
Podatki o izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti so bili nizki že v letih 2008 in 2009, ko so bile stopnja dobičkonosnosti in razmere v industriji na splošno zadovoljive.
It was therefore concluded that overcapacity was not a substantial cause of the injury suffered by the EU producers.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da presežna zmogljivost ni bila bistveni razlog za škodo, ki so jo utrpeli proizvajalci EU.
Conclusion on Causation
Sklep o vzročni zvezi
The above analysis demonstrated that there was a substantial increase in the volume and market share of the dumped imports originating in the PRC particularly in 2010 and the IP.
Zgornja analiza je pokazala, da sta se obseg in tržni delež dampinškega uvoza s poreklom iz LRK zlasti med letom 2010 in OP bistveno povečala.
It was found that these imports undercut the prices charged by the Union industry on the Union market during the IP.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da je ta uvoz nelojalno nižal prodajne cene industrije Unije na trgu Unije v OP.
