Secondly, the exporting producer did not explain to what extent anti-dumping duties would distort global competition and did also not explain to what extent they could have an impact on the efficiency of the Union industry.
Zato je bilo v tej fazi sklenjeno, da bi bila uvedba protidampinških dajatev v interesu industrije Unije.
These claims were therefore not sufficiently substantiated.
Interes uvoznikov/trgovcev
To the contrary, the investigation showed that anti-dumping measures would allow the Union industry to increase its sales prices and profitability as well as its sales volume on the Union market.
Po objavi obvestila o začetku se ni javila nobena družba, ki se ukvarja s trgovino, tj. uvozom in nadaljnjo prodajo AHF v sedanjem stanju.
Therefore these arguments were at this stage rejected.
Preiskava je dejansko pokazala, da sta industrija Unije in proizvajalec izvoznik AHF večinoma prodajala neposredno uporabnikom.
The exporting producer further claimed that the demand of AHF is highly elastic and in case of imposition of measures many consumers may switch to alternative products such as polyethylene household foil; therefore measures will not result in an increase but rather in a loss of sales volume for the Union industry.
Na podlagi tega ni mogoče sklepati, da bi uvedba ukrepov škodljivo vplivala na položaj uvoznikov/trgovcev.
However the investigation showed that the substitution of AHF by alternative packaging is very difficult due to the specific characteristics of AHF such as heat resistance and light protection.
Interes uporabnikov
It was therefore concluded at this stage that the imposition of anti-dumping duties would be in the interest of the Union industry.
Uporabniki v Uniji so previjalci, ki trgujejo z materialom za embaliranje (aluminijasto folijo ter tudi papirjem in plastiko), potem ko AHF previjejo v manjše zvitke („zvitki za široko potrošnjo“) in ponovno prepakirajo za industrijsko prodajo in maloprodajo.
Interest of importers/traders
Javilo se je sedem družb in poslani so jim bili vprašalniki.
No company involved in the trading, i.e. importation and resale of AHF in its state, came forward following the publication of the Notice of Initiation.
V postopku so sodelovale štiri družbe, ki so predložile izpolnjene vprašalnike.
Indeed, the investigation showed that the Union industry and the exporting producer were selling AHF mostly directly to users.
Tri sodelujoče družbe so bile preverjene na kraju samem.
On these grounds, there are no indications that the imposition of measures would have an adverse effect on the situation of importers/traders.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je AHF glavna surovina previjalcev, saj ustvarja približno 80 % njihovih skupnih proizvodnih stroškov.
Interest of users
Sodelujoči uporabniki so imeli v obdobju preiskave tri glavne vire oskrbe z AHF, to so industrija Unije, Turčija in Rusija.
The users in the Union are rewinders whose activities consist in trading wrapping material (aluminium foil, but also paper and plastic) after rewinding AHF into small rolls (‘consumer rolls’) and repacking it for industrial and retail sales business.
Trije sodelujoči uporabniki so kupovali AHF zlasti od industrije Unije, uvažali pa so jo v manjšem obsegu; eden od teh treh uporabnikov ni uvažal AHF iz Rusije, ampak le iz Turčije.
Seven companies came forward and received a questionnaire.
Četrti sodelujoči uporabnik je kupoval AHF zlasti od Rusije, manjše količine pa od industrije Unije.
Four companies cooperated in the proceedings by submitting questionnaire replies.
Vse sodelujoče družbe so AHF uvažale tudi iz Turčije.
Three of the cooperating companies were verified on-the-spot.
Ker so previjalci dobavitelji široke palete izdelkov za embaliranje, je za tri sodelujoče družbe, ki so zadevni izdelek kupovale od Rusije, dejavnost, ki vključuje AHF, zajemala od manj kot ene šestine do največ ene četrtine celotne dejavnosti.
The investigation showed that AHF is the main raw material of the rewinders, representing around 80 % of their total cost of manufacturing.
Za družbo, ki zadevnega izdelka ni kupovala od Rusije, je dejavnost, ki vključuje AHF, zajemala manj kot eno tretjino celotne dejavnosti.
During the investigation period, the cooperating users had three main sources of supply of AHF that is the Union industry, Turkey and Russia.
V obdobju preiskave so se vse sodelujoče družbe izkazale za splošno dobičkonosne.
Three of the cooperating users purchased AHF mainly from the Union industry and imported it to a lesser extent; one of these three users did not import AHF from Russia, but only from Turkey.
Kljub temu eni družbi ni uspelo jasno dodeliti svojih PSA-stroškov dejavnosti, ki vključuje AHF, zato za to družbo ni bilo mogoče pripraviti jasnih zaključkov v zvezi z dobičkonosnostjo.
The fourth cooperating user purchased AHF mainly from Russia and sourced lesser quantities from the Union industry.
Poleg tega je preiskava pokazala, da obstaja več virov oskrbe in da so previjalci po potrebi pripravljeni preklopiti na druge vire oskrbe (glej uvodne izjave 165 do 168).
All the cooperating companies imported AHF also from Turkey.
Poleg tega lahko previjalci še vedno prenesejo protidampinško dajatev na svoje stranke, zlasti če cene glavne surovine nadaljujejo gibanje zniževanja, ki je bilo ugotovljeno v obravnavanem obdobju.
As rewinders are suppliers of a wide range of packaging products, for the three cooperating companies which purchased the product concerned from Russia, the activity incorporating AHF represented from less than one sixth to maximum one fourth of their total activity.
Čeprav ni izključeno, da bi uvedba ukrepov proti Rusiji lahko negativno vplivala na dobičkonosnost previjalcev, bi razpoložljivost drugih virov oskrbe, možnost prenosa dajatve na stranke in v nekaterih primerih visoke stopnje dobičkonosnosti nakazovale, da bi bil morebitni vpliv ukrepov na previjalce omejen.
For the company that did not purchase the product concerned from Russia the activity incorporating AHF represented less than one third of their total activity.
Proizvajalec izvoznik je trdil, da bo uvedba protidampinških dajatev škodljivo vplivala na velike prodajalce na drobno, vendar te trditve ni natančneje obrazložil.
During the investigation period all cooperating companies reported to be overall profitable.
V zvezi s tem bi bilo treba poudariti, da se med preiskavo ni javil noben velik prodajalec na drobno.
Nevertheless, one company could not clearly allocate their SG&A costs to the activity incorporating AHF and therefore, no clear conclusion could be drawn for this company regarding its profitability.
Nekatere zainteresirane strani so trdile tudi, da bi uvedba ukrepov zmanjšala dobičkonosnost previjalcev.
Moreover, the investigation showed that there are multiple sources of supply and the rewinders are ready to change sources of supply if needed (see recitals from 165 to 168).
Vendar kot je že analizirano v uvodnih izjavah 153 do 160, bo učinek na dobičkonosnost previjalcev po pričakovanjih omejen, zlasti če upoštevamo različne obstoječe vire oskrbe in možnost, da na svoje stranke prenesejo vsaj del stroškov, povišanih zaradi uvedbe dajatev.
In addition, rewinders may still be able to pass the anti-dumping duty on to their customers, especially if prices of their main raw material continue the decreasing trend observed during the period considered.
Poleg tega so bili, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 118, zadnjih pet let vzpostavljeni protidampinški ukrepi proti uvozu iz Kitajske, Brazilije in Armenije.
On this basis, while it is not excluded that the rewinders' profitability might be negatively affected by the imposition of measures against Russia, the availability of other sources of supply, the possibility to pass on the duty to customers and in some cases the high profitability margins, would indicate that the possible impact of the measures on rewinders would be limited.
V obdobju preiskave, ki je privedla do teh ukrepov, je bilo ugotovljeno, da se dobičkonosnost previjalcev giblje med –2 % in + 2 % [7].
The exporting producer claimed that the imposition of anti-dumping duties will be detrimental for large retailers without however specifying this claim any further.
Kljub uvedbi ukrepov so previjalci ostali gospodarsko uspešni, v nekaterih primerih pa so celo povečali dobiček, saj je sedanja preiskava pokazala, da so dobiček ustvarjali vsi sodelujoči previjalci.
In this regard, it should be noted that no large retailers came forward during the investigation.
Poleg tega so nekatere zainteresirane strani trdile, da je na trgu na koncu prodajne verige ustvarjal močno konkurenco uvoz zvitkov za široko potrošnjo.
Some interested parties also claimed that the imposition of measures would reduce the profitability of the rewinders.
Nekatere so trdile, da bi uvedba protidampinških ukrepov za AHF kaznovala previjalce v Uniji, ki bi morali plačati protidampinško dajatev za surovino in tako ne bi bili več sposobni konkurirati uvozu izdelkov na koncu prodajne verige.
However, as already analysed in recitals from 153 to 160, the impact on the profitability of the rewinders is expected to be limited in particular when taking into consideration the various existing sources of supply and the possibility to pass on to their customers at least part of their cost increase from the imposition of duties.
Poleg tega so trdile, da bi uvedba ukrepov za AHF povzročila izvoz zvitkov za široko potrošnjo iz Rusije.
In addition, as mentioned in recital 118, anti-dumping measures have been in place for the last 5 years against imports from China, Brazil and Armenia.
Previjanje bi potem namesto v Uniji potekalo v Rusiji, zato naj bi bili previjalci močno oškodovani, tudi zato, ker bi morali konkurirati uvozu zvitkov za široko potrošnjo po nizkih cenah.
During the investigation period of the investigation leading to these measures, the profitability of the rewinders was found to range between – 2 % and + 2 % [7].
Vendar se tveganje, da bi se uvoz zadevnega izdelka lahko zamenjal z uvozom izdelka na koncu proizvodne verige, samo po sebi ne šteje za razlog proti uvedbi protidampinških ukrepov.
Despite the imposition of measures, rewinders remained viable and in some cases even increased their profits, as the current investigation showed that all cooperating rewinders were profitable.
V zvezi s tem bi bilo treba poudariti, da so bili protidampinški ukrepi na uvoz zvitkov za široko potrošnjo iz Kitajske uvedeni leta 2013 [8], tako da si je lahko industrija na koncu prodajne verige opomogla od dampinškega uvoza, ki ji je povzročil znatno škodo.
Moreover, it was claimed that there was strong competition in the downstream market from imports of consumer rolls.
Poleg tega je preiskava pokazala, da uvoz AHF iz Rusije pokriva le del potreb previjalcev in da obstaja več drugih virov oskrbe brez protidampinških ukrepov.
Some interested parties claimed that any imposition of the anti-dumping measures on AHF would penalise rewinders in the Union which would have to pay an anti-dumping duty on their raw material and would thus not be able anymore to compete with imports of the downstream products.
Zato so bili ti argumenti zavrnjeni.
It was further claimed that the imposition of measures on AHF would give rise to exports of consumer rolls from Russia.
Glede na te ugotovitve se v tej fazi sklene, da vpliv na uporabnike ne bo takšen, da se bo štelo, da so ukrepi v nasprotju s splošnim interesom Unije.
The rewind operation would then take place in Russia instead of the Union and the rewinders would be severely hurt, also because they will have to compete with the low priced imports of consumer rolls..
Viri oskrbe
However, the risk that imports of the product concerned may be substituted by imports of the downstream products is not, in itself, a reason not to impose anti-dumping measures.
Več zainteresiranih strani je trdilo, da lahko uvedba protidampinških dajatev za Rusijo povzroči nezadostno ponudbo na trgu Unije, saj industrija Unija nima zadostne zmogljivosti, da bi zadostila povpraševanju v Uniji, kot je že bilo navedeno, pa previjalci ne bi imeli dovolj drugih virov oskrbe.
In this regard, it should be noted that anti-dumping measures on imports of consumer rolls from China were imposed in 2013 [8] which has given the downstream industry relieve from dumped imports causing material injury.
Preiskava je pokazala, da je imela industrija Unije presežne zmogljivosti ter lahko poveča proizvodnjo in prodajo AHF v Uniji.
In addition, the investigation showed that imports of AFH from Russia cover only a part of the needs of the rewinders and that there are several other sources of supply with no anti-dumping measures.
Poleg tega so na voljo alternativni viri oskrbe, kot so Turčija, Armenija, pa tudi Južna Afrika in Indija, čeprav v manjšem obsegu.
Therefore, these arguments were rejected.
Ena zainteresirana stran je trdila, da industrija Unije zelo verjetno ne bo povečala proizvodnje in prodaje AHF, ampak okrepila dejavnosti v sektorju ACF.
In view of these findings, it is at this stage concluded that the impact on users would not be such that measures have to be considered to be against the overall Union interest.
Ta trditev je temeljila na domnevi, da je industrija Unije povečala proizvodnjo AHF zaradi svetovne gospodarske krize in bi nadaljevala proizvodnjo ACF, ko bi se izboljšale splošne gospodarske razmere v Uniji.
Several interested parties claimed that the imposition of anti-dumping duties against Russia may result in a shortage of supply in the Union market, as the Union industry has not sufficient capacity to cover the demand in the Union and, as mentioned above, rewinders would not have sufficient other sources of supply.
Kot pa je že analizirano v uvodni izjavi 132, v preiskavi ni bilo najdenih nobenih dokazov, ki bi utemeljevali to trditev.
The investigation showed that the Union industry had excess capacity and is able to increase production and sales of AHF in the Union.
Poleg tega stran ni zagotovila nobenih dokazov v zvezi s povezavo med gibanjem proizvodnje AHF in gospodarsko krizo ali trditvijo, da bo industrija Unije po morebitni uvedbi ukrepov proti Kitajski preklopila proizvodnjo na ACF.
Moreover, alternative sources of supply are available such as Turkey, Armenia and also South Africa and India, albeit to a lesser extent.
Zato so bili ti argumenti v tej fazi zavrnjeni.
In addition, the anti-dumping duties against China and Brazil are currently under review and findings will be published in January 2016 at the latest.
Ena zainteresirana stran je trdila, da uvoz AHF iz Venezuele, Turčije in Armenije ni primeren nadomestek za uvoz AHF iz Rusije, saj bi bilo različnih več ključnih parametrov, kot so proizvodnja, tehnične specifikacije in razpoložljivost oskrbe.
Finally, anti-dumping measures aim to establish a level playing field in the Union and Russian imports will still be able to enter the Union market at fair price levels.
Vendar zadevna stran ni predložila nobenih dokazov v potrditev te trditve.
One interested party claimed that it is very likely that the Union industry will not increase its production and sales of AHF, but rather increase its activities in the ACF sector.
Poleg tega preiskava ni prinesla nobenih informacij, ki bi potrdile to trditev.
This claim was based on the assumption that the Union industry increased its production of AHF due to the worldwide economic crisis and would resume production of ACF once the overall economic situation in the Union recovers.
Nasprotno je preiskava razkrila, da je Turčija glavni dobavitelj previjalcev Unije in zato primerljiva z ruskim uvozom v smislu razpoložljivosti in specifikacij izdelka.
This party also noted that there was a parallel investigation concerning imports into the Union of ACF originating in China ongoing [9] and claimed that should this investigation result in the imposition of anti-dumping measures, the Union industry will likewise improve its economic situation with regard to ACF and as a consequence increase production of ACF to the detriment of an increase in production of AHF.
Potencialni dobavitelj za trg Unije je tudi Armenija, za katero se ne uporabljajo protidampinške dajatve.
However, as already analysed in recital 132, the investigation found no evidence to justify such claim.
Na podlagi navedenega bi bilo treba trditev, da ni bilo nobenih alternativnih virov oskrbe, zavrniti.
Moreover, the party did not provide any evidence regarding the link between the development of production of AHF and the economic crisis or the claim that the Union industry upon a possible imposition of measures against China will switch its production to ACF.
Drugi argumenti
Therefore, these arguments were at this stage rejected.
Proizvajalec izvoznik je trdil, da bi mogla analiza interesa Unije upoštevati tudi, da industrijo Unije ščitijo uvozne dajatve v višini 7,5 % iz Rusije in protidampinške dajatve, ki se uporabljajo za uvoz istega izdelka iz Kitajske in Brazilije.
One interested party claimed that imports of AHF from Venezuela, Turkey and Armenia were not suitable to substitute imports of AHF from Russia as a number of key parameters such as production, technical specifications and supply availability would be different.
Ugotovljeno je bilo, da po veljavni Shemi splošnih tarifnih preferencialov Evropske unije („GSP“), ki je začela veljati 1. januarja 2014, Rusija dejansko ni več navedena kot država upravičenka.
The party concerned did not provide any evidence in support of this claim.
Zato se od 1. januarja 2014 in dokler trajajo te razmere za uvoz AHF iz Rusije uporablja stopnja uvozne dajatve v višini 7,5 % (namesto preferencialne stopnje dajatve v višini 4 %, ki se je uporabljala do 31. decembra 2013).
Furthermore, the investigation did not bring into light any information which could have confirmed this claim.
Poleg tega so bili protidampinški ukrepi proti Kitajski in Braziliji, ki se zdaj pregledujejo, uvedeni kot posledica ločenega postopka, v katerem je bil ugotovljen škodljiv damping v zvezi s tem uvozom in ki je utemeljil uvedbo ukrepov.
On the contrary, the investigation revealed that Turkey is a major supplier of the Union rewinders and therefore comparable in terms of availability and product specifications with Russian imports.
Protidampinških dajatev, ki se uporabljajo za uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav, samih po sebi ni mogoče šteti za utemeljen razlog proti uvedbi protidampinških ukrepov za uvoz iz druge tretje države.
Armenia is also a potential supplier for the Union market with no anti-dumping duties in place.
Če se po protidampinški preiskavi ugotovi, da uvoz iz te države povzroča škodljiv damping, bo uvedba takih ukrepov dejansko utemeljena, vendar ne bo smel obstajal noben utemeljen razlog v smislu interesa Unije, ki bi nasprotoval takim ukrepom.
On the basis of the above, the claim that no alternative sources of supply existed, should be rejected.
Za zadevni primer so ti pogoji v tej fazi izpolnjeni, zato je bil ta argument v tej fazi zavrnjen.
Other arguments
Proizvajalec izvoznik je nazadnje trdil, da se AHF in ACF proizvajata v istih proizvodnih obratih in s tem domnevno zagotavljata visoko raven nadomestljivosti na strani ponudbe, zato bi dodatna protidampinška dajatev na uvoz AHF ustvarila izkrivljanja na trgu ACF na strošek končnih strank v Uniji.
The exporting producer claimed that the Union interest analysis should also take into account that the Union industry is protected by import duties of 7,5 % from Russia and the anti-dumping duties in force in relation of imports of the same product from China and Brazil.
Vendar proizvajalec izvoznik te trditve ni natančneje obrazložil.
It is noted that indeed, under the current Generalised Scheme of Preferences of the European Union (‘GSP’) which entered into force on 1 January 2014, Russia is no longer listed as a beneficiary country.
Kot je že pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah 81 in 131, največji vzorčeni proizvajalec sploh ni proizvajal ACF, drugi proizvajalci ACF pa so imeli sorazmerno stabilno razmerje proizvodnje in prodaje med AHF in ACF.
Therefore, as of 1 January 2014, and until that situation persists, imports from Russia of AHF are subject to the import duty rate of 7,5 % (instead of the preferential duty rate of 4 % applicable until 31 December 2013).
Zato bi bilo treba ta argument zavrniti.
Moreover, the anti-dumping measures against China and Brazil, which are currently under review, were imposed as a result of a separate proceeding which established injurious dumping with regard to these imports and which justified the imposition of the measures.
Sklep o interesu Unije
Anti-dumping duties in place with regard to imports from other third countries cannot be considered per se as a valid reason not to impose anti-dumping duties with regard to imports from another third country.
Na podlagi navedenega je Komisija sklenila, da v tej fazi preiskave ni utemeljenih razlogov, zaradi katerih uvedba ukrepov za uvoz AHF s poreklom iz Rusije ne bi bila v interesu Unije.
Indeed if following an anti-dumping investigation it is established that there is injurious dumping from this country's imports the imposition of such measures are justified, if there are no compelling reasons in terms of Union interest which would speak against such measures.
G. ZAČASNI PROTIDAMPINŠKI UKREPI
In the current case, these conditions are at this stage fulfilled and this argument was therefore at this stage rejected.
Glede na sklepe Komisije o dampingu, škodi, vzročni zvezi in interesu Unije bi bilo treba uvesti začasne ukrepe, da se prepreči, da bi dampinški uvoz še naprej povzročal škodo industriji Unije.
The exporting producer finally claimed that as AHF and ACF are produced at the same production facilities, thus allegedly providing a high level of substitutability on the supply side, an additional anti-dumping duty on imports of AHF would create distortions in the market of ACF at the cost of the final customers in the Union.
Stopnja odprave škode (stopnja škode)
However, the exporting producer did not further specify this claim.
Pri določitvi stopnje ukrepov je Komisija najprej določila višino dajatve, ki bi bila potrebna za odpravo škode, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
As already explained in recitals 81 and 131 the largest producer in the sample did not produce at all ACF and the others who were producing ACF, had a stable ratio of production and sales between ACF and AHF.
Škoda bi bila odpravljena, če bi industrija Unije lahko krila svoje proizvodne stroške in ustvarila dobiček pred obdavčitvijo, ki bi ga taka industrija v tem sektorju od prodaje podobnega izdelka na trgu Unije lahko razumno ustvarila v običajnih konkurenčnih pogojih, tj. brez dampinškega uvoza.
Therefore this argument should be rejected.
Glede na to se je 5-odstotni dobiček med preiskavo štel za ustreznega in je bil ob upoštevanju posebnih značilnosti tega industrijskega sektorja potrjen.
Conclusion on Union interest
Poleg tega se je 5-odstotni dobiček uporabljal tudi v postopku, ki je privedel do vzporedne preiskave v zvezi s Kitajsko in Brazilijo glede istega izdelka, kot je naveden v uvodni izjavi 20.
On the basis of the above, the Commission concluded that there were no compelling reasons that it was not in the Union interest to impose measures on imports of AHF originating in Russia at this stage of the investigation.
Komisija navaja tudi uvodno izjavo 158 Uredbe Komisije (EU) št. 833/2012, ki je obravnavala zelo podoben izdelek in v kateri je tudi bila uporabljena 5-odstotna stopnja dobička.
G. PROVISIONAL ANTI-DUMPING MEASURES
Na podlagi tega je Komisija za industrijo Unije izračunala neškodljivo ceno podobnega izdelka s prilagoditvijo prodajne cene industrije Unije, tako da je odvzela stopnjo dobička ali dodala dejansko izgubo v obdobju preiskave, nato pa dodala prej navedeno stopnjo dobička v višini 5 %.
