In addition to Brazil, the Commission contacted all known or potential wire rod producers in Turkey, Switzerland, Norway and Japan (countries with significant imports of wire rod into the Union suggesting significant production) and the USA (a country with a big domestic industry and market).
Poleg Brazilije je Komisija stopila v stik z vsemi znanimi ali potencialnimi proizvajalci valjane žice v Turčiji, Švici, na Norveškem, Japonskem (države z znatnim uvozom valjane žice v Unijo, kar kaže na znatno proizvodnjo) in v ZDA (država z veliko domačo industrijo in trgom).
Eventually two producers of wire rod agreed to cooperate in the investigation and provided a reply to the analogue country questionnaire, namely Ereğli Demir ve Çelik Fabrikalri T.A.S. from Turkey and ArcelorMittal Brasil from Brazil.
Sčasoma sta dva proizvajalca valjane žice pristala na sodelovanje v preiskavi in predložila izpolnjen vprašalnik o primerljivih državah, in sicer Ereğli Demir ve Çelik Fabrikalri T.A.S. iz Turčije in ArcelorMittal Brasil iz Brazilije.
A number of factors were taken into account when deciding on the most appropriate analogue country for the current investigation, in particular the size of the analogue country domestic market with satisfactory level of competition for the like product; representativeness of the domestic sales (quantity and profitability) of the cooperating producers; the size and product range offered by the cooperating producers and the comparability of their products and production method to that of China.
Pri odločanju o najprimernejši primerljivi državi za sedanjo preiskavo so se upoštevali številni dejavniki, zlasti velikost domačega trga primerljive države z zadovoljivo ravnjo konkurence za podobni izdelek, reprezentativnost domače prodaje (količina in dobičkonosnost) sodelujočih proizvajalcev, velikost in nabor izdelkov, ki ga nudijo sodelujoči proizvajalci, ter primerljivost njihovih izdelkov in proizvodne metode s kitajskimi.
Given the fact that Turkey and the Turkish cooperating exporting producer satisfied all major criteria for an appropriate analogue country/producer it was decided to use Turkey as analogue country.
Glede na to, da Turčija in sodelujoči turški proizvajalec uvoznik izpolnjujeta vsa glavna merila za primerno primerljivo državo/proizvajalca, je bilo sklenjeno, da se kot primerljiva država uporabi Turčija.
In accordance with Article 2(2) of the basic Regulation it was first examined whether the total volume of domestic sales during the RIP of the like product to independent customers made by the cooperating analogue country producer was representative in comparison with the total export volume to the Union, namely whether the total volume of such domestic sales represented at least 5 % of the total volume of export sales made by the cooperating analogue country producer of the like product to the Union.
V skladu s členom 2(2) osnovne uredbe se je najprej proučilo, ali je bil celoten obseg domače prodaje podobnega izdelka neodvisnim strankam v OPP s strani sodelujočega proizvajalca iz primerljive države reprezentativen v primerjavi s celotnim izvozom v Unijo, tj. ali je celoten obseg take domače prodaje predstavljal vsaj 5 % celotnega obsega izvozne prodaje zadevnega izdelka v Unijo, ki jo je opravil sodelujoči proizvajalec iz primerljive države.
This was done by establishing the proportion of domestic sales to independent customers on the domestic market which were profitable during the RIP.
To je bilo izvedeno tako, da se je določil delež dobičkonosne domače prodaje neodvisnim strankam na domačem trgu v OPP.
As it was found that all domestic sales were made in sufficient quantities and in the ordinary course of trade, normal value was based on the actual domestic prices and was calculated as the weighted average of the prices of all domestic sales during the review investigation period.
Ker se je ugotovilo, da se je vsa domača prodaja izvedla v zadostnih količinah in v običajnem poteku trgovanja, je normalna vrednost temeljila na dejanskih domačih cenah in je bila izračunana kot tehtano povprečje cen celotne domače prodaje v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom.
In the absence of cooperation from the Chinese exporting producers, and thus the absence of specific information on Chinese prices, the export price was determined on the basis of facts available in accordance with Article 18 of the basic Regulation.
Zaradi nesodelovanja kitajskih proizvajalcev izvoznikov in posledično pomanjkanja specifičnih podatkov o kitajskih cenah je bila izvozna cena določena na podlagi razpoložljivih dejstev v skladu s členom 18 osnovne uredbe.
Available statistical sources, namely Eurostat were used.
Uporabljeni so bili razpoložljivi statistični viri, tj. Eurostat.
According to Eurostat, only 696 tonnes of wire rod were imported from China into the Union during the RIP, corresponding to 0,04 % of total imports.
Po navedbah Eurostata je bilo v OPP s Kitajske v Unijo uvoženih samo 696 ton valjane žice, kar znaša 0,04 % celotnega uvoza.
This amount is negligible in the light of total Union consumption (17,8 million tonnes).
Glede na celotno potrošnjo Unije (17,8 milijona ton) je ta količina zanemarljiva.
To ensure a fair comparison, the Commission adjusted the normal value and/or the export price for differences affecting prices and price comparability, in accordance with Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation.
Da se zagotovi poštena primerjava, je Komisija v skladu s členom 2(10) osnovne uredbe normalno vrednost in/ali izvozno ceno prilagodila za razlike, ki so vplivale na cene in njihovo primerljivost.
In order to express the export price at ex-works level, the Commission adjusted the Eurostat CIF price for freight and insurance based on the information from the complaint.
Za določitev izvozne cene na ravni franko tovarna je Komisija prilagodila Eurostatove cene CIF za stroške prevoza in zavarovanja na podlagi informacij iz pritožbe.
The domestic prices were adjusted for freight, insurance, handling and credit costs based on the data obtained from the analogue country producer.
Domače cene so bile prilagojene za stroške prevoza, zavarovanja, manipulativne stroške in stroške kredita na podlagi podatkov, pridobljenih od proizvajalca iz primerljive države.
The average Eurostat Chinese export price compared to the normal value of the analogue country did not show the existence of dumping.
Primerjava povprečnih kitajskih izvoznih cen Eurostata in normalne vrednosti primerljive države je pokazala, da ni bilo dampinga.
At the same time it is important to stress that as it is mentioned in recital 33 import volumes of the product concerned were very low during the RIP.
Hkrati je treba poudariti, da je bil, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 33, obseg uvoza zadevnega izdelka zelo majhen v OPP.
It was also observed that for most CN codes the prices fluctuated heavily, in some cases with a ratio of up to 30 times throughout the period considered.
Ugotovljeno je bilo tudi, da so za večino oznak KN cene močno nihale, v nekaterih primerih z razmerjem do 30-krat v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju.
Such fluctuations are difficult to explain by ‘normal’ market forces and most likely are the result of the low sales quantities.
Takšna nihanja je težko pojasniti z „normalnimi“ tržnimi silami in so najverjetneje posledica majhnih prodanih količin.
Furthermore, due to the non-cooperation of the Chinese exporters, there was no information available on the product mix of the Chinese exports and consequently the comparison with the analogue country normal value could only be made on an aggregated basis.
Poleg tega zaradi nesodelovanja kitajskih izvoznikov ni bilo na voljo nobenih informacij o mešanici izdelkov v kitajskem izvozu, zato je bilo primerjavo z normalno vrednostjo v primerljivi državi mogoče opraviti le na agregatni osnovi.
Therefore, the finding of no dumping during the RIP is considered to be irrelevant due to the combined effect of low imported quantities; the irregular fluctuation of prices as well as the absence of information regarding the imported product mix.
Ugotovitve o neobstoju dampinga v OPP so zaradi kombiniranega učinka majhnih količin uvoza nepomembne, k čemur je prispevalo tudi neenakomerno nihanje cen in pomanjkanje informacij o uvoženi mešanici izdelkov.
In light of the considerations set out in recitals 35 to 38 above, the Commission further analysed whether there was a likelihood of recurrence of dumping should the measures lapse.
Komisija je glede na premisleke, navedene v uvodnih izjavah od 35 do 38, nadalje analizirala, ali obstaja verjetnost ponovitve dampinga, če bi se iztekla veljavnost ukrepov.
When doing so, the following elements were analysed: the Chinese production capacity and spare capacity, the behaviour of Chinese exporters on other markets and the attractiveness of the Union market.
Pri tem je analizirala naslednje elemente: kitajsko proizvodno zmogljivost in neizkoriščeno zmogljivost, obnašanje kitajskih izvoznikov na drugih trgih in privlačnost trga Unije.
Production and spare capacity in China
Proizvodnja in neizkoriščena zmogljivost na Kitajskem
Based on the information provided by the Worldsteel Association [5] the total Chinese wire rod production showed a strongly increasing trend for the last 10 years and culminated in over 150 million [6] tonnes in 2013.
Na podlagi informacij, ki jih je predložilo Svetovno jeklarsko združenje [5], se je pokazalo, da se je celotna kitajska proizvodnja valjane žice v zadnjih desetih letih močno povečala in dosegla vrhunec leta 2013 s proizvodnjo več kot 150 milijonov [6] ton valjane žice.
In other words China is responsible for 77 % of the worldwide wire rod production meaning that this country can influence heavily market conditions by its sales decisions.
To pomeni, da je Kitajska odgovorna za 77 % svetovne proizvodnje valjane žice, kar pomeni, da lahko ta država s svojimi odločitvami o prodaji močno vpliva na tržne razmere.
It is important to highlight that its yearly production exceeds by more than seven times the total Union production.
Pomembno je poudariti, da njena letna proizvodnja za več kot sedemkrat presega celotno proizvodnjo Unije.
Furthermore, the overall increase in Chinese wire rod production since 2011 (26 million tonnes) in itself exceeds the total Union consumption estimated at 17 million tonnes.
Poleg tega že samo splošno povečanje proizvodnje valjane žice na Kitajskem od leta 2011 (26 milijonov ton) presega skupno potrošnjo Unije, ocenjeno na 17 milijonov ton.
According to the review request spare capacity is estimated at some 50 million tonnes in China.
Glede na zahtevek za pregled je neizkoriščena zmogljivost Kitajske ocenjena na 50 milijonov ton.
Due to the Chinese non-cooperation it was difficult to obtain additional information in this respect.
Zaradi nesodelovanja Kitajske je bilo težko pridobiti dodatne informacije v zvezi s tem.
However, in the light of high production levels referred to in recitals 40 and 41 in comparison to the European and worldwide figures China could easily cause severe distortions on the markets by its sales decisions even without using its spare capacity.
Glede na visoko raven proizvodnje, navedeno v uvodnih izjavah 40 in 41, bi lahko Kitajska v primerjavi z evropskimi in svetovnimi podatki s svojimi odločitvami o prodaji zlahka povzročila resno izkrivljanje na trgu tudi brez uporabe svoje neizkoriščene zmogljivosti.
Chinese sales to third countries
Kitajska prodaja tretjim državam
According to the Chinese export database over 9 million tonnes of wire rod were exported worldwide by China during the RIP representing over 50 % of the total Union consumption in the same period.
Po podatkih kitajske podatkovne zbirke o izvozu je Kitajska po svetu izvozila več kot 9 milijonov ton valjane žice v OPP, kar predstavlja več kot 50 % celotne potrošnje Unije v istem obdobju.
The table below summarises the figures for the six biggest countries in terms of Chinese export volume and Turkey, the analogue country, representing over 53 % of the total Chinese exports during the RIP.
V spodnji tabeli so povzeti podatki za šest največjih držav glede na obseg kitajskega izvoza in za Turčijo, primerljivo državo, ki predstavljajo več kot 53 % celotnega kitajskega izvoza v OPP.

Celoten kitajski izvoz
Total Chinese exports
Povprečna izvozna cena, ugotovljena v OPP za vsako od navedenih držav, je bila precej nižja od normalne vrednosti.
The average export price found during the RIP for each of the above countries was significantly below the normal value.
Zato so se ugotovljene stopnje dampinga glede na povprečne kitajske prodajne cene (prikazane v zgornji tabeli) za tretje države gibale od 14 % do 24 % [7].
Hence, the dumping margins established with regard to Chinese average sales prices (as shown in the table above) to third countries ranged from 14 % to 24 % [7].
Podatki tudi kažejo, da obseg kitajskega izvoza narašča, cene pa se nižajo.
The figures also reveal that China's exports are showing an increasing trend in volumes combined with a decreasing trend in prices.
Razpoložljivi statistični podatki dejansko kažejo, da so cene po OPP še naprej padale.
In fact available statistics indicate that the prices continued to further decrease after the RIP.
Veliko prizadetih držav je takšna gibanja razumelo kot grožnjo svoji lastni industriji, zato so sprejele zaščitne ukrepe (med drugim Malezija in Indonezija, nedavno po OPP pa še Turčija [8], ZDA in Pakistan).
A number of the affected countries perceived these trends as a threat to their own industry and have introduced protective measures (inter alia Malaysia and Indonesia and more recently, following the RIP Turkey [8], US and Pakistan).
Najnovejša sporočila za javnost [9] kažejo, da se kitajski domači trg, zlasti gradbeni sektor [10], upočasnjuje.
Finally, recent press releases [9] suggest that the Chinese domestic market and in particular the construction sector [10] is slowing down.
Kitajske prodajne možnosti se torej zmanjšujejo: glavni izvozni trgi se zapirajo, glavna domača prodaja pa se upočasnjuje.
Hence, Chinese sales opportunities are diminishing: its main export markets are closing up and its main domestic sales are slowing down.
Če bi se iztekla veljavnost ukrepov v Uniji, je zato zelo verjetno, da bi Kitajska svojo poceni (dampinško) prodajo v velikem obsegu takoj usmerila na trg Unije.
Therefore, if measures in the Union were allowed to lapse there is a strong likelihood that China would immediately direct its low-priced (dumped) sales in large volumes toward the Union market.
Privlačnost trga Unije
Attractiveness of the Union market
Zaradi višje ravni cen na trgu Unije v primerjavi s kitajskimi prodajnimi cenami za druge tretje države, kot je prikazano v tabeli 1, se trg Unije zdi privlačen za kitajske proizvajalce.
Due to the higher price levels on the Union market compared to the Chinese sales prices observed in other third countries as shown in Table 1, the Union market is considered to be attractive for the Chinese producers.
Obstoj zaščitnih ukrepov na številnih izvoznih trgih še povečuje privlačnost trga Unije.
The existence of protective measures in many export markets further increases the attractiveness of the Union market.
Tako se lahko upravičeno pričakuje, da bi se v primeru razveljavitve ukrepov kitajski izvoz na trg Unije v znatnem obsegu nadaljeval.
Thus it can be reasonably expected that should measures be repealed, Chinese exports would resume in considerable volumes on the Union market.
Treba je opozoriti, da je pred uvedbo prvotnih ukrepov leta 2008 kitajski obseg prodaje na trgu Unije znašal 1,1 milijona ton v primerjavi s 700 tonami v OPP.
It is worth recalling that before the original measures were imposed, in 2008, Chinese sales volumes in the Union market amounted to 1,1 million tonnes as compared to 700 tonnes in the RIP.
Sklep o verjetnosti ponovitve dampinga
Conclusion on the likelihood of recurrence of dumping
Ob upoštevanju zelo velike ravni proizvodnje valjane žice na Kitajskem in njenega dampinga na tretje države ter zgoraj opisano privlačnost trga Unije je zelo verjetno, da bi razveljavitev protidampinških ukrepov povzročila takojšnjo ponovitev dampinga s Kitajske v Unijo.
Taking into consideration the immense production level of wire rod in China and its dumping practices to third countries as well as the attractiveness of the Union market as described above, there is a strong likelihood that the repeal of the anti-dumping measures would result in immediate recurrence of dumping from China to the Union.
D. OPREDELITEV INDUSTRIJE UNIJE
D. DEFINITION OF THE UNION INDUSTRY
Podobni izdelek je v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom proizvajalo 72 proizvajalcev v Uniji, ki predstavljajo „industrijo Unije“ v smislu člena 4(1) osnovne uredbe.
The like product was manufactured by 72 Union producers during the review investigation period who constitute the ‘Union industry’ within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the basic Regulation.
Nihče od njih ni nasprotoval začetku preiskave.
None of them was opposed to the initiation.
Vse številke, povezane z občutljivimi podatki, so zaradi zaupnosti indeksirane ali navedene v okvirni vrednosti.
All figures related to sensitive data had to be indexed or given in a range for reasons of confidentiality.
E. RAZMERE NA TRGU UNIJE
Union consumption
Komisija je potrošnjo Unije določila na podlagi razpoložljivih statističnih podatkov o uvozu, dejanski prodaji sodelujočih proizvajalcev Unije brez izvoza in ocenjeni prodaji nesodelujočih proizvajalcev Unije.
The Commission established the Union consumption on the basis of the available import statistics, the actual sales of cooperating Union producers, excluding their export sales, and estimated sales of non-cooperating Union producers.
Opredelitev potrošnje je povezana s prodajo na prostem trgu, v katero je vključena lastna prodaja in izključena lastna uporaba.
The definition of consumption relates to free market sales, inclusive of captive sales but exclusive of captive use.
Lastna uporaba, tj. notranji prenosi podobnega izdelka med integriranimi proizvajalci Unije za nadaljnjo predelavo, ni vključena v podatek o potrošnji Unije, ker ti notranji prenosi niso v konkurenci s prodajo od neodvisnih dobaviteljev na prostem trgu.
Captive use, that is internal transfers of the like product within the integrated Union producers for further processing, has not been included in the Union consumption figure, because these internal transfers are not in competition with sales from independent suppliers in the free market.
Lastna prodaja, tj. prodaja povezanim družbam, je bila vključena v podatek o potrošnji Unije, saj so po podatkih, zbranih med preiskavo, povezane družbe proizvajalcev Unije lahko valjano žico prosto kupovale od drugih virov.
The captive sales, that is, the sales to related companies, were included in the Union consumption figure since according to the data collected during the investigation, the related companies of the Union producers were free to purchase wire rod also from other sources.
Poleg tega je bilo ugotovljeno, da povprečne prodajne cene proizvajalcev Unije povezanim stranem ustrezajo povprečnim prodajnim cenam nepovezanim stranem.
In addition, the Union producers' average sales prices to related parties were found to be in line with the average sales prices to unrelated parties.
Na podlagi tega se je potrošnja Unije gibala na naslednji način:
On this basis, Union consumption developed as follows:

Potrošnja Unije se je zmanjšala za 4 %, in sicer z 18,5 milijona ton leta 2011 na 17,8 milijona ton v obdobju preiskave v zvezi s pregledom.
Union consumption decreased by 4 % from 18,5 million tonnes in 2011 to 17,8 million tonnes in the review investigation period.
Potrošnja v obravnavanem obdobju je bila nižja od potrošnje v obdobju prvotne preiskave (od aprila 2007 do marca 2008), ki je znašala 23,6 milijona ton.
Consumption during the period considered was lower than the consumption of 23,6 million tonnes in the investigation period of the original investigation (April 2007 to March 2008).
Zmanjšanje potrošnje je posledica negativnega vpliva gospodarske krize, zaradi katerega se je zmanjšala skupna potrošnja valjane žice zlasti v avtomobilski in gradbeni industriji.
The decrease in consumption is a consequence of the negative impact of the economic crisis that caused a reduction in the overall consumption of wire rod, in particular in the automotive and construction industries.
Uvoz iz zadevne države
Volume and market share of imports from the country concerned
Obseg in tržni delež uvoza s Kitajske sta bila določena na podlagi Eurostata.
The volume and market share of imports from China were established on the basis of Eurostat.
Obseg uvoza v Unijo iz zadevne države in tržni delež sta se gibala na naslednji način:
The import volume into the Union from the country concerned and its market share developed as follows:

Tržni delež (%)
Market share (%)
Čeprav je kitajski uvoz predstavljal 5 % tržnega deleža in 1,1 milijona ton v obdobju prvotne preiskave, je po podatkih Eurostata praktično izginil s trga Unije.
While Chinese imports accounted for 5 % market share and 1,1 million tonnes in the original investigation period, they have, based on information from Eurostat, virtually disappeared from the Union market.
Uvoz s Kitajske se je v obravnavanem obdobju dejansko zmanjšal s 3108 ton na 696 ton.
In fact, imports from China decreased from 3108 to 696 tonnes over the period considered.
Družba s 7,9-odstotno stopnjo dajatve je povezana s skupino ArcelorMittal in po navedbah pritožnikov ne proizvede več znatne količine valjane žice.
The company with the 7,9 % duty rate is related to the ArcelorMittal group and according to the complainants does not produce significant quantities of wire rod any longer.
Vendar so tudi drugi kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki prenehali prodajati v Unijo.
However, the other Chinese exporting producers also ceased to sell into the Union.
Trg valjane žice se zdi zelo občutljiv na ceno, saj so kitajski izvozniki zaradi 24-odstotnega zvišanja cen, ki ga je povzročila veljavna protidampinška dajatev, izgubili zanimanje za trg Unije.
The wire rod market appears to be very price-sensitive and the 24 % price increase caused by the anti-dumping duty in force made Chinese exporters to lose interest in the Union market.
Cene uvoza iz zadevne države in nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen
Prices of imports from the country concerned and price undercutting
Cene uvoza so bile določene na podlagi podatkov Eurostata.
Import prices were established on the basis of Eurostat.
Zaradi zanemarljivega obsega uvoza s Kitajske v EU, pomanjkanja sodelovanja kitajskih proizvajalcev in pomanjkanja podatkov o ceni za vrsto izdelka glede zanemarljivega obsega uvoza ni bil možen smiseln izračun nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen.
Due to the negligible import volumes from China to the EU, the lack of cooperation from Chinese producers and the lack of product type related price data on their negligible import quantities, it was not possible to perform a meaningful calculation of price undercutting.
Kitajske izvozne cene za tretje države so, kot je prikazano v tabeli 1, nelojalno znižale prodajne cene industrije Unije v povprečju za več kot 25 %.
However, Chinese export prices to third countries as shown in Table 1 undercut the Union industry's sales prices by more than 25 % on average.
V primeru izteka veljavnosti ukrepov se na trgu Unije zato pričakuje podobno znatno stopnjo nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen.
