Commodity PSF and specialty PSF
Zdi se, da je navadne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken mogoče uporabiti na več načinov kot posebne vrste, vendar razlike niso tolikšne, da bi jih zaradi tega razvrstili kot dva posamezna izdelka.
One government authority and four exporting producers claimed that commodity PSF and specialty PSF are to be treated as different products, due to differences in cost of production, selling prices and use.
Čeprav imajo raznovrstna rezana poliestrska vlakna različne lastnosti, ki ustrezajo zadevnemu namenu, so njihove osnovne fizične lastnosti in uporabe enake.
It was also claimed that the Union industry focuses on speciality PSF as the core type PSF, while the countries concerned mainly supply commodity PSF.
Pojasniti je treba tudi, da v obdobju preiskave posebne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken niso bile osnovna vrsta rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki so jo proizvajali proizvajalci Unije.
The government authority and the four exporting producers making the claim as described in recital 57 did not provide a definition for specialty PSF.
Glede na opredelitev navadnih in posebnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki so jo navedli vzorčeni proizvajalci Unije, so posebne vrste v povprečju zajemale približno 40 % vseh vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki so jih proizvajali.
Specialty PSF, as defined by the sampled Union producers, range from PSF made from a combination of polyester and polyethylene for use in hygiene products, coloured (dyed) PSF, PSF with a specific tenacity, flame retardant PSF, PSF for technical use (such as geotextiles and non-wovens used in the building industry), PSF that is defined, developed and customised together with the customer for specific applications, to PSF used for the automotive industry (specifically visible linings of cars need to be consistent in colour).
En proizvajalec izvoznik je po razkritju ponovno navedel, da posebne in navadne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken niso „podoben izdelek“, zato jih ni mogoče preučevati skupaj.
Standard PSF, according to the sampled Union producers, cover those PSF that have a wider range of flexibility for its specifications.
Ista stran je poudarila, da se posebne in navadne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken razlikujejo glede svoje končne uporabe, stroškov proizvodnje in prodajne cene.
With the proposed definition of the specialty PSF type and the commodity PSF type, the two types share the same basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics.
Zato je menil, da je Komisija storila napako, ker ni preučila razlik med neto in prodajno ceno posebnih in navadnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken.
The fact that there are several types, grades or qualities does not exclude that they can be regarded as a single product.
Navedel je, da ni jasno, kako je Komisija določila stroške proizvodnje in prodajno ceno izdelka v preiskavi ter od nje zahteval, naj najprej loči podatke za navadne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken in posebne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, nato pa preuči analizo nelojalnega nižanja cen.
The possible uses of commodity PSF seem wider than the specialty type of PSF but these differences were insufficient to have them classified as two single products.
Komisija potrjuje, da se rezana poliestrska vlakna prodajajo kot raznovrstni izdelki za uporabo pri predenju ali v netkanih izdelkih.
Although the types of PSF have different characteristics corresponding to their specific purpose, their basic physical characteristics, application and uses are the same.
Rezana poliestrska vlakna so lahko na primer sestavljena iz enokomponentnih ali dvokomponentnih vlaken in imajo različne specifikacije, kot so deciteksi, trdnost, lesk, kakovostni razred itd. Navedene posebnosti so zajete v kontrolni številki izdelka, glede katere pa Komisija ni prejela nobenih pripomb.
Furthermore, it needs to be clarified that during the investigation period the specialty PSF types were not the core type of PSF produced by the Union producers.
Priznava se, da navadne in posebne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken pri vseh možnih uporabah niso medsebojno zamenljive, vendar so raznovrstni izdelki vsaj deloma zamenljivi, njihove uporabe pa se vsaj deloma prekrivajo.
On average, it constituted around 40 % of all PSF types produced by the sampled Union producers, according to their own definition of commodity PSF and specialty PSF.
Kot je bilo opisano v uvodni izjavi 61 in ugotovljeno v prejšnjem postopku glede istega izdelka, so fizikalne in kemične lastnosti, pa tudi končne uporabe teh vrst v osnovi enake.
Following disclosure, one exporting producer resubmitted that the specialty PSF type and the commodity PSF type are not ‘like products’ and therefore, cannot be examined together.
Vse vrste so iz istih surovin (PTA/MEG ali recikliranega polietilen tereftalata), ki predstavljajo več kot 60 % stroškov proizvodnje.
The same party noted that the specialty PSF type and the commodity PSF type differ in end use, in cost of production and sales price.
K temu se lahko dodajo aditivi ali dodatne sestavine, da se zagotovijo določene posebne lastnosti vlakna.
Therefore, it considered it a failure of the Commission not having examined the differences in cost and sales price of the specialty PSF type and the commodity PSF type.
Kontrolna številka izdelka zajema izvor surovin in druge elemente, ki vplivajo na stroške proizvodnje in prodajne cene.
It stated that it is unclear how the cost of production and the sales price of the product under investigation have been determined and requested the Commission to examine the underselling analysis after segregating the data for commodity PSF and specialty PSF.
Vendar se proizvodni postopki navadnih in posebnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken bistveno ne razlikujejo.
The Commission confirms that PSF is sold in different product types for use in spinning or non-woven applications.
To je razvidno iz primera vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije, izmed katerih nobeden ni proizvajal le navadnih ali posebnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken.
For example, PSF can have a mono- or bicomponent composition as well as different specifications such as decitex, tenacity, lustre, quality grade, etc.
Dosledna in splošno priznana opredelitev posebnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken očitno ne obstaja.
Such specificities were captured by the PCN, on which the Commission did not receive any comments.
Kot je bilo na primer opisano v uvodni izjavi 59, nekateri proizvajalci Unije rezana poliestrska vlakna, ki se uporabljajo v industriji higienskih izdelkov, štejejo za posebno vrsto rezanih poliestrskih vlaken.
It is recognised that commodity and speciality PSF are not interchangeable in all possible applications, but there is a partial interchangeability and overlapping use between different product types.
Več uporabnikov in združenje uporabnikov pa je nasprotno navedlo, da so rezana poliestrska vlakna, ki se bodo v industriji higienskih izdelkov uporabila, na primer, v vlažnih robčkih, navadna vrsta rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, čeprav naj ne bi bila reciklirana zaradi zdravstvenih in varnostnih razlogov.
As described in recital 61 and established in earlier proceedings concerning the same product, the physical and chemical characteristics as well as the end-uses of these types are basically the same.
Nekateri proizvajalci Unije vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki so izdelana v skladu s posebnimi zahtevami stranke (na primer, posebna barva), štejejo med posebne vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, čeprav so take vrste izdelane v popolnoma enakem proizvodnem postopku, stroški njihove proizvodnje pa so enaki kot pri vseh drugih (navadnih) vrstah.
All types are based on the same raw materials (PTA/MEG or on recycled PET) which account for over 60 % of the cost of production.
Komisija zato ni mogla upoštevati samooklicane razvrstitve navadnih in posebnih vrst rezanih poliestrskih vlaken in ta trditev se zato zavrne.
To this, additives or additional components can be added to ensure certain specific properties of the fibre.
Druge trditve glede obsega izdelka
The PCN covers the origin of the raw materials and other elements that have an impact on the cost of production and the sales prices.
En uporabnik in združenje uporabnikov sta trdila, da je kakovost rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, uvoženih s Kitajskega, višja od kakovosti rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, proizvedenih v Uniji.
However, no substantial difference in the production process of commodity and specialty PSF exists.
Med drugim sta trdila, da rezana poliestrska vlakna iz Ljudske republike Kitajske ne vsebujejo trdnih delcev polimerov.
This can be seen in the case of the sampled Union producers, of which none produced exclusively either commodity PSF or specialty PSF.
Drugi argument je bila belina kitajskih rezanih poliestrskih vlaken; rezana poliestrska vlakna, proizvedena v Uniji, naj bi bila sivkastega odtenka, saj je večina rezanih poliestrskih vlaken v Uniji proizvedena iz recikliranih plastenk iz PET.
Finally, no consistent and commonly agreed definition of specialty PSF seems to exist.
Prva trditev glede trdnih delcev polimerov v rezanih poliestrskih vlaknih Unije ni bila podprta z nobenim dokazom.
For example, as described in recital 59 PSF used in the hygiene industry is considered by some Union producers as a specialty type.
Pravzaprav so drugi uporabniki v svojih navedbah in izpolnjenih vprašalnikih trdili ravno nasprotno (tj. da so rezana poliestrska vlakna, ki jih proizvede proizvajalec Unije, običajno višje kakovosti kot rezana poliestrska vlakna, proizvedena v zadevnih državah).
On the contrary, various users and a user association have indicated that the PSF to be used in the hygiene industry for, for example, wet wipes, is a commodity type, although it should preferably not be, for health and safety reasons, of recycled origin.
Glede drugega argumenta o belini so informacije, predložene med preiskavo, potrdile, da so rezana poliestrska vlakna, izdelana iz PTA/MEG, običajno bolj bela od rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, izdelanih iz recikliranih plastenk iz PET (kadar med postopkom proizvodnje niso dodani pigment in/ali belila).
In addition, some Union producers consider PSF types that have particular customer specific requirements (for example, a specific die colour) to be specialty PSF, even though such types may follow the exact same production process and have the same cost of production as any other (commodity) type.
Navedeni vrsti rezanih poliestrskih vlaken imata kljub temu enake fizikalne in kemične lastnosti, njuna končna uporaba pa je v osnovi enaka.
Therefore, the Commission could not rely on a self-proclaimed categorisation of commodity versus specialty PSF type and therefore this claim is rejected.
Opozoriti je treba tudi, da se je pri izračunu škode kot ena izmed značilnosti upoštevala osnovna surovina.
Other claims made with regards to product scope
Uvožena rezana poliestrska vlakna iz recikliranih plastenk iz PET bi se torej primerjala le z rezanimi poliestrskimi vlakni iz recikliranih plastenk iz PET, proizvedenimi v Uniji.
One user and a user association claimed that PSF imported from China is of higher quality than the PSF produced in the Union.
Tudi uvožena rezana poliestrska vlakna iz PTA in MEG bi se primerjala le z rezanimi poliestrskimi vlakni iz PTA in MEG, proizvedenimi v Uniji.
One argument provided was that the PSF from the People's Republic of China does not contain hard polymer pieces.
Združenje uporabnikov, proizvajalec izvoznik in vladni organ so trdili, da nadaljnji uporabniki pogosto zahtevajo izdelke iz rezanih poliestrskih vlaken s poreklom iz zadevnih držav (zlasti s Kitajskega).
Another argument put forward was the brightness of Chinese PSF, while PSF produced in the Union were said to contain grey shades, as most of the Union PSF is PSF made from recycled PET bottles.
Predložen ni bil noben dokaz v podporo tej trditvi ali podrobnejša utemeljitev, na kateri je temeljila zahteva o rezanih poliestrskih vlaknih iz vseh treh zadevnih držav (če nadaljnje stranke to sploh zahtevajo).
The first argument as regards Union PSF containing hard polymer pieces was not substantiated by any evidence.
Združenje uporabnikov je podrobneje navedlo, da avtomobilska industrija Unije sprejema le rezana poliestrska vlakna kitajskega porekla.
Moreover, the contrary has also been stated in other user submissions and in replies to the user questionnaire (that is to say that PSF produced by Union producer is usually of higher quality than PSF produced by the countries concerned).
Svoje trditve pa ni podprlo z dokazi in ni dokazalo, da avtomobilska industrija Unije rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki jih proizvajajo proizvajalci Unije, ne more uporabljati.
As regards the second argument on brightness, the information provided during the investigation confirms that PSF made from PTA/MEG is usually brighter than PSF made from recycled PET bottles (when no pigment and/or brighteners are added during the production process).
Preverjeni podatki so poleg tega pokazali, da avtomobilski industriji Unije precejšnje količine rezanih poliestrskih vlaken prodajajo tudi proizvajalci Unije, kar kaže ravno nasprotno.
However, both types of PSF share the same physical and chemical characteristics and their end-uses are basically the same.
Tudi ta trditev je bila zavrnjena, saj so plastenke iz PET in granulati iz njih (tj. plastenke, zdrobljene v granulate) pravzaprav ista surovina, le v drugačni obliki.
It should also be noted that in calculating injury, the basic raw material was one of the features which was taken into account.
Sklep
In other words, the imported PSF made from recycled PET bottles would be compared only with Union produced PSF made from recycled PET bottles.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da imajo vse vrste rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, zajetih v preiskavi, enake osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in kemične lastnosti, njihova končna uporaba pa je v osnovi enaka.
Likewise, the imported PSF made from PTA and MEG would be compared only with Union produced PSF made from PTA and MEG.
SUBVENCIONIRANJE
The user association claimed more specifically that the Union automotive industry accepts only PSF from Chinese origin.
Na podlagi informacij iz pritožbe in odgovorov na vprašalnik Komisije so bile preverjene naslednje sheme, v okviru katerih so vladni organi Kitajske domnevno dodeljevali subvencije:
However, it failed to substantiate its claim and demonstrate that PSF produced by Union producers cannot be used by the Union automotive industry.
A. Preferenčna posojila industriji rezanih poliestrskih vlaken, ki jih zagotavljajo državne banke in zasebne banke, ki delajo po navodilih in smernicah vlade
Moreover, verified data have demonstrated that Union producers also sell substantial quantities of PSF to the Union automotive industry, which points to the contrary.
B. Blago in storitve za podporo industriji, ki jih zagotavlja vlada za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega, ter zasebni dobavitelji, ki delajo po navodilih in smernicah države
One exporting producer claimed that the PSF made by this exporting producer and the PSF produced by Union producers, although both made from recycled PET bottles, are different products.
PTA in MEG, ki ju zagotavlja vlada za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega,
According to this exporting producer, its PSF is (mainly) produced from recycled PET bottles (not flakes), which follows a different production process and constitutes different raw materials compared to PSF producers using flakes made from recycled PET bottles.
zemljišča in pravice do rabe zemljišč, ki jih zagotavlja vlada za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega,
This claim was rejected as well, since PET bottles and PET bottle flakes (which are PET bottles crushed into flakes) are essentially the same raw material albeit in another form.
električna energija, ki jo zagotavlja vlada,
Conclusion
program, ki zagotavlja poceni vodo.
It was therefore concluded that all PSF types covered by the investigation share the same basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics and their end-uses are basically the same.

SUBSIDISATION
posebni sklad „Go Global“,

Komisija je preverila vse sheme, navedene v pritožbi.
Export incentive programmes in Zhejiang province;
Pri vsaki shemi je preverila, ali bi bilo mogoče v skladu z določbami člena 3 osnovne uredbe ugotoviti višino finančnega prispevka kitajske vlade in ugodnost, ki ga je ta prinesel vzorčenim proizvajalcem izvoznikom.
Technology innovation grants in Zhejiang province;
Preiskava je pokazala, da je v tem primeru vsaka ugodnost, ugotovljena v povezavi s preverjenimi shemami, nižja od ustrezne stopnje de minimis iz člena 14(5) [3] osnovne uredbe.
Tax and duty incentives in development zones in Guangdong province;
Zato se zdi, da sklep o posameznih shemah, proti katerim se lahko uvedejo izravnalni ukrepi, ni potreben.
Export incentives in Guangdong province;
Podrobnosti o shemah in ustrezne stopnje ugodnosti za posamezna podjetja so navedene v nadaljevanju.
Reimbursement of legal fees in Guangdong province;
Posebne sheme
Foreign trade activities (special) funds programme in Guangdong province;

Preferential infrastructure in Shanghai province;
davčne olajšave do 40 % nakupne vrednosti doma proizvedene opreme,
Lending and tax policies for export-oriented enterprises in the Province of Shanghai.
drugi regionalni/provincialni programi.
The Commission investigated all schemes alleged in the complaint.
Glede zagotavljanja PTA in MEG za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega, je bilo v pritožbi navedeno, da kitajska vlada nadzoruje nekatere industrije in izdelke na začetku proizvodne verige, tj. za PTA in MEG, da bi proizvajalcem rezanih poliestrskih vlaken zagotavljala surovine po ugodni ceni.
For each scheme it was investigated whether, pursuant to provisions of Article 3 of the basic Regulation, a financial contribution by the GOC and a benefit conferred to the sampled exporting producers could be established.
Na tej podlagi proizvajalci rezanih poliestrskih vlaken prejemajo subvencije, proti katerim se lahko uvedejo izravnalni ukrepi, saj od družb v državni lasti kupujejo PTA in MEG po ceni, nižji od tržne, torej za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega.
Therefore, it is not considered necessary to conclude on the countervailability of individual schemes.
Za vzorčena podjetja zato ni bilo mogoče ugotoviti, ali prejemajo subvencije na podlagi tega domnevnega programa.
Details of the schemes and the corresponding benefit rates for individual companies are set out below.
Pritožnik je po razkritju ugotovil, da je Komisija zagotovila delno analizo le za eno subvencijsko shemo, ki je vzorčeni kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki v obdobju preiskave niso uporabljali, tj. zagotavljanje PTA/MEG po subvencioniranih cenah.
Schemes not used by sampled Chinese exporting producers during the investigation period
Komisija je, kot je bilo pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah 16 in 18, izmed 23 kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov/skupin proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki so sodelovali v preiskavi, izbrala vzorec petih največjih proizvajalcev izvoznikov/skupin proizvajalcev izvoznikov, ki se je štel za reprezentativnega v smislu člena 27 osnovne uredbe.
The below schemes were found not to be used by the sampled Chinese exporting producers/groups of exporting producers during the investigation period and therefore no benefit could be established.
Kitajski proizvajalec, na katerega se je skliceval pritožnik in ki ni bil vključen v vzorec, v obdobju preiskave ni izvažal večjih količin rezanih poliestrskih vlaken v Unijo.
Provision of PTA and MEG for less than adequate remuneration;
Nevključitev tega proizvajalca torej ni vplivala na reprezentativnost vzorca in ni pomembno vplivala na sklepe glede zadevne subvencijske sheme.
Government provision of electricity for less than the adequate remuneration;
Komisija potrjuje, da je zbirala informacije in odgovore glede vseh subvencijskih shem, navedenih v pritožbi, vključno s shemami, ki jih je pritožnik navedel v svojih pripombah na razkritje, vendar je bilo za te sheme ugotovljeno, da jih vzorčeni proizvajalci izvozniki/skupine proizvajalcev izvoznikov niso uporabljali.
Government provision of cheap water for less than the adequate remuneration;
Komisija je v uvodni izjavi 78 navedla dodatne podrobnosti o zagotavljanju PTA/MEG za plačilo, ki je nižje od primernega, saj se je ta shema v pritožbi obravnavala kot pomemben dejavnik, ki bi lahko zagotavljal visoko subvencijo, proti kateri se lahko uvedejo izravnalni ukrepi.
