Noting the importance of the price level in purchasing decisions in the candle market, particularly for the standard products such as tea lights and pillars candles, it needs to be pointed out that the Chinese average export prices to their main third country markets (for example Australia, Canada, Malaysia, the USA, Japan or New Zealand) were higher than the prices of the Union industry [8] during the RIP.
V pripombah k razkritju je ena od strani trdila, da kitajskih izvoznih cen za tretje države in zlasti za malezijski trg ni mogoče šteti za relevantne, ker naj bi bil znaten del te trgovine namenjen na trg Unije.
Therefore, there is no economic incentive for Chinese exporting producers to redirect their exports to the Union should the measures be repealed.
Poleg tega je ta stran trdila, da se je ukrepe zaobšlo.
Furthermore judging from the behaviour of the Chinese companies not subject to measures, whose unit price is higher than that of the Union industry, who compete directly with the Union industry and whose market share decreased during the period considered, it seems unlikely that Chinese producers subject to duties would undercut the Union industry prices only to gain market share.
Predpostavke o malezijskem trgu ne temeljijo na preverjenih dokazih in jih zato ni mogoče upoštevati.
In its comments to the disclosure, one party claimed that the Chinese export prices to third countries and in particular to the Malaysian market cannot be considered to be relevant because a significant part of this trade is allegedly destined to the Union market.
Poleg tega razpoložljivi statistični podatki o uvozu kažejo, da se je obseg uvoza iz Malezije zmanjševal in je trenutno zanemarljivo majhen.
Moreover, this party claimed that the measures have been circumvented.
Ne glede na to je treba opozoriti, da so, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 60 zgoraj, povprečne kitajske izvozne cene za tretje države, vključno z Malezijo, višje od cen industrije Unije.
The assumption regarding the Malaysian market is not based on verified evidence and cannot thus be taken into consideration.
Četudi bi trditev te strani držala, te visoke cene ne bi mogle povzročiti škode industriji Unije.
Moreover, the available imports statistics show that the volume of imports from Malaysia has been decreasing and is currently negligible.
Predloženi dokazi glede drugih oblik izogibanja ukrepom so nejasni in v nasprotju s statističnimi podatki o uvozu, ki so na voljo.
Nevertheless, it should be noted that, as mentioned in recital 60 above, the Chinese average export price to third countries including Malaysia is higher than the price of the Union Industry.
V pripombah k razkritju je ena od strani trdila, da je primerjava cen kitajskega izvoza za njihove glavne trge v tretjih državah in povprečne cene proizvajalcev izvoznikov, za katere ukrepi ne veljajo, s cenami industrije Unije nepomembna, saj ne upošteva morebitnih razlik v naboru izdelkov.
Accordingly, even if the allegation of this party was true, these high prices could not cause injury the Union Industry.
Opozoriti je treba, da stran ni utemeljila svoje trditve in ni zagotovila nobenih informacij o morebitnih težavah z „naborom izdelkov“ ali drugimi značilnosti, ki bi lahko bile pomembne za analizo cen.
The evidence provided on other forms of circumvention is inconclusive and at odds with the available imports statistics.
V razpoložljivih statističnih podatkih je izvoz/uvoz sveč prikazan pod eno oznako KN, tehtano povprečno ceno na kilogram pa je mogoče pridobiti na podlagi podatkovnih zbirk o izvozu/uvozu.
In its comments to the disclosure, one party claimed that the comparison of the Chinese export prices to their main third country markets and the average price of the exporting producers not subject to measures with the prices of the Union industry is irrelevant because it does not take into consideration possible differences in the product mix.
Komisija meni, da je povprečna cena na kilogram najboljši vir informacij v zvezi z ravnjo izvoznih/uvoznih cen, ki jih je mogoče pridobiti za proizvajalce izvoznike v LRK.
It is noted that the party did not substantiate its claim and did not provide any information concerning possible issues of ‘product mix’ and other characteristics which may be relevant for the price analysis.
Zadevna stran je nadalje trdila, da štirje od petih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, za katere ukrepi ne veljajo, ne tekmujejo z industrijo Unije, saj se osredotočajo na proizvodnjo izdelkov višjega cenovnega razreda ali dopolnjujejo proizvodnjo svojih matičnih družb v Uniji.
The available statistics show the exports/imports of candles under one CN code and the weighted average price per kilo can be obtained from exports/imports databases.
Ista zainteresirana stran je prav tako menila, da je ravnanje proizvajalcev izvoznikov, za katere ukrepi ne veljajo, majhnega pomena za preiskavo v zvezi s pregledom, ker na podlagi njihovega ravnanja ni mogoče napovedati ravnanja izvoznikov, za katere veljajo dajatve in ki so bili vpleteni v škodljivi damping pred uvedbo prvotnih ukrepov za standardizirane izdelke, ki naj bi predstavljali domnevno najbolj prizadeti tržni segment v primeru izteka ukrepa.
The Commission considers that the average price per kilo provides the best source of information concerning the level of export/import prices which can be obtained for exporting producers in the PRC.
Ista stranka je trdila tudi, da se obseg uvoza od teh družb pred letom 2011 ni upošteval.
The party further claimed that four out of five the exporting producers not subject to measures do not compete with the Union industry as they focused on high-end products or supplemented the production of their mother companies in the Union.
Vendar so bile te trditve v nasprotju z ugotovitvami preiskave.
The same interested party also considered that the behaviour of the exporting producers not subject to measures is of little relevance for the review investigation as it does not shed light on the behaviour of the exporters subject to duties that had engaged in injurious dumping before the original measures were imposed on the standardised products which is allegedly the market segment that will be most affected if the measures are allowed to lapse.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 61 zgoraj, Komisija meni, da je analiza ravnanja proizvajalcev izvoznikov, za katere ukrepi ne veljajo, zlasti pomembna za analizo privlačnosti trga Unije.
Finally, the same party claimed that pre-2011 import volumes of these companies were not considered.
Kot je zadevna stran potrdila sama, se nekateri proizvajalci ukvarjajo s proizvodnjo standardnih izdelkov, drugi pa s proizvodnjo izdelkov višjega cenovnega razreda.
These claims however contradicted the findings of the investigation.
Glede obsega je treba opozoriti, da so bile štiri od petih družb, za katere ukrepi ne veljajo, vzorčene v prvotni preiskavi Komisije, ker so imele največji obseg izvoza [9].
In fact, as mentioned in recital 61 above, the Commission considers that the analysis of the behaviour of the exporting producers not subject to measures is relevant in particular for the analysis concerning the attractiveness of the Union market.
To kaže, da so zadevni proizvajalci izvažali veliko količino izdelkov na trg Unije.
As acknowledged by the party itself, some producers are involved in the production of standard products and others in high-end products.
Glede na to, da zanje niso bili uvedeni nobeni ukrepi, za razliko od tistih proizvajalcev, za katere ukrepi veljajo, niso imeli nobene spodbude za spremembo nabora izdelkov, ki jih izvažajo.
In terms of volume, it has to be recalled that four out of the five companies not subject to measures were sampled by the Commission in the original investigation on the basis of the largest volume of exports [9].
Ravnanje teh izvoznikov se zato lahko šteje kot pokazatelj verjetnega prihodnjega ravnanja kitajskih proizvajalcev, za katere ukrepi trenutno veljajo, tudi v tržnem segmentu, za katerega je značilna standardizirana proizvodnja, v segmentu stebrastih sveč in čajnih svečk.
This shows that these producers were exporting high volumes of products to the Union market.
Vendar je bilo ugotovljeno, da se je obseg uvoza pri dveh od petih proizvajalcev znatno zmanjšal, uvoz pri preostalih dveh je ostal na enaki ravni, samo pri enem od petih proizvajalcev se je količina uvoza od obdobja prvotne preiskave, torej od leta 2007, podvojila.
Given that no measures were imposed on them they did not have any incentive, unlike producers subject to measures, to change the product mix of their exports.
Zato je mogoče sklepati, da ravnanje petih proizvajalcev izvoznikov, za katere velja dajatev nič, ne daje popolne predstave o privlačnosti trga Unije, saj štirje izmed njih niso izkoristili ugodnega položaja, da bi povečali obseg izvoza na trg Unije.
Therefore, the behaviour of these exporters can be considered as illustrative of the likely future behaviour of Chinese producers currently subject to measures also with regard to the market segment characterised by standardised production, namely pillars and tea-lights candles.
Poleg tega zadevna stran ni predložila nobenih dokazov, ki bi potrjevali, da bi bilo treba izdelke, prodane v tržnem segmentu velikih količin množičnih izdelkov, obravnavati drugače kot ostali del trga.
for two others, the volume remained stable and only for one of the five producers volume of imports doubled since the IP of the original investigation, namely since 2007.
Zato je treba te trditve zavrniti.
Thus, it can be concluded that the behaviour of the five exporting producers subject to zero duty gives an inconclusive picture on the attractiveness of the Union market, given that four of them did not benefit from their favourable position to increase the volume of exports to the Union market.
Sklep v zvezi z verjetnostjo nadaljevanja dampinga
Furthermore, the party did not provide any evidence demonstrating that products sold in the market segment of large-volume mass products should be considered different compared with other part of the market.
Na podlagi zgoraj navedenega je mogoče sklepati, da bi v primeru izteka ukrepa kitajski izvoz v EU, za katerega trenutno veljajo protidampinški ukrepi, še naprej potekal po dampinških cenah.
As mentioned in recital 26 and thoroughly explained in recitals 24 to 30 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1130/2008 [10] imposing provisional anti-dumping measures as well as in recitals 22 to 27 of Regulation (EC) No 393/2009, the investigation showed that the product produced and sold on the Chinese domestic market and/or exported to the Union and the product produced and sold in the Union by the Union industry have the same basic physical, technical and chemical characteristics and the same basic uses.
Vendar se zdi malo verjetno, da bi tak izvoz ponovno nastopil v znatnih količinah.
Moreover, the current investigation covers the entire scope of the existing measure and cannot focus only on a sub-segment of this market and disregard the other sub-segments.
D. POLOŽAJ NA TRGU UNIJE
Therefore, these claims have to be rejected.
Komisija je pri analizi škode razlikovala med makro- in mikroekonomskimi kazalniki škode.
Conclusion on the likelihood of a continuation of dumping
Makroekonomski kazalniki za obravnavano obdobje so bili opredeljeni, analizirani in preučeni na podlagi podatkov, ki jih je predložila industrija Unije.
On the basis of the above, it can be concluded that if measures were allowed to lapse the Chinese exports to the EU currently under anti-dumping measures would continue to be imported at dumped prices.
Mikroekonomski kazalniki so bili opredeljeni na podlagi podatkov, ki so bili zbrani in preverjeni na ravni vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije.
However, it seems unlikely that these exports would reoccur in considerable quantities.
V naslednjih oddelkih so makroekonomski kazalniki:
D. SITUATION ON THE UNION MARKET
proizvodnja, proizvodna zmogljivost, izkoriščenost zmogljivosti, zaloge, obseg prodaje, tržni delež in rast, zaposlovanje, produktivnost, višina dejanske stopnje dampinga in okrevanje od preteklega dampinga.
For the purpose of the injury analysis the Commission distinguished between macroeconomic and microeconomic injury indicators.
Mikroekonomski kazalniki so:
The macroeconomic indicators for the period considered were established, analysed and examined on the basis of the data provided by the Union industry.
povprečne cene na enoto, stroški proizvodnje, dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, naložbe, donosnost naložb, zmožnost zbiranja kapitala in stroški dela.
The microeconomic indicators were established on the basis of the data collected and verified at the level of the sampled Union producers.
Industrija Unije
In the following sections, the macroeconomic indicators are:
Na podlagi podatkov iz zahtevka za pregled je bilo ugotovljeno, da podobni izdelek proizvaja veliko število proizvajalcev v Uniji, med katerimi je mnogo malih in srednje velikih proizvajalcev.
production, production capacity, capacity utilisation, stocks, sales volume, market share and growth, employment, productivity, magnitude of the actual dumping margin, recovery from past dumping.
Splošne podatke o svojem obsegu proizvodnje in prodaje je predložilo 26 proizvajalcev Unije.
The microeconomic indicators are:
Ker veliko proizvajalcev Unije, večinoma mala podjetja, pri preiskavi ni sodelovalo, ni bilo mogoče natančno določiti celotnega obsega proizvodnje Unije in števila proizvajalcev na podlagi podatkov posameznih družb.
average unit prices, cost of production, profitability, cash flow, investments, return on investment, ability to raise capital and labour costs.
Posledično je bil obseg proizvodnje Unije ocenjen na podlagi informacij iz zahtevka za pregled zaradi izteka ukrepa.
Union industry
Na tej podlagi je bila celotna proizvodnja Unije med OPP ocenjena na približno 400000 ton, skupno število proizvajalcev Unije v zadevnem obdobju pa na približno 170.
Based on the data provided in the review request, it was established that the like product is manufactured by a high number of producers in the Union, including many small and medium sized producers.
Ti sestavljajo industrijo Unije v smislu člena 4(1) osnovne uredbe, v nadaljnjem besedilu pa bodo imenovani „industrija Unije“.
26 Union producers supplied general data on their volume production and sales.
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 17 zgoraj, je bilo sedem proizvajalcev Unije izbranih v vzorec in je predložilo zahtevane informacije.
Since many Union producers, mostly small enterprises, did not cooperate in the investigation it was not possible to define precisely the total volume of Union production and the number of producers on the basis of individual company data.
Zadevne družbe v vzorcu po oceni predstavljajo približno 37 % celotne proizvodnje Unije med OPP.
Consequently, the volume of Union production has been estimated by using information provided in the expiry review request.
Potrošnja Unije
On that basis, the total Union production was estimated to be around 400000 tonnes and the total number of Union producers estimated to be around 170 during the RIP.
Potrošnja Unije je bila določena na podlagi preverjenih podatkov o prodaji vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije na trgu Unije, podatkov, ki so jih vložniki predložili v zahtevku za pregled, podatkov o uvozu iz tretjih držav in LRK iz podatkovne zbirke Comext.
They constitute the Union industry within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the basic regulation and will hereafter be referred to as the ‘Union industry’.
Potrošnja Unije je v obravnavanem obdobju v osnovi ostala stabilna.
As indicated in recital 17 above, seven Union producers were sampled and provided the requested information.
Vendar je treba omeniti, da je potrošnja v OPP znatno nižja od ravni, zabeleženih v obdobju prvotne preiskave, ko je ta znašala približno 577000 ton.
The companies in the sample are estimated to represent around 37 % of the total Union production during the RIP.
V pripombi k razkritju je ena od strani trdila, da je bila potrošnja Unije v prvotni preiskavi precenjena.
Union consumption
Vendar pa je ta stran sodelovala v prvotni preiskavi in takrat ni podala take trditve.
Union consumption was established on the basis of the verified sales figures of the sampled Union producers on the Union market, data provided by the applicants in the review request, import data from third countries and from the PRC extracted from Comext.
Zato je treba navedeno trditev zavrniti.
During the period considered Union consumption remained fundamentally stable.
Tabela 1
However it is noteworthy that consumption in the RIP is significantly lower than the levels recorded during the investigation period of the original investigation when the consumption was about 577000 tonnes.
Potrošnja
In its comment to the disclosure, one party claimed that the Union consumption was overestimated during the original investigation.
Vir:
However, that party participated in the original investigation and did not make any such claim at that time.
Izpolnjeni vprašalniki, zahtevek za pregled zaradi izteka ukrepa, Comext.
This claim has to be therefore rejected.

The average price of dumped Chinese imports increased by 24 % as shown in the table below:

Povišanje cen je mogoče razložiti z dejstvom, da je prišlo do spremembe nabora kitajskih izdelkov, izvoženih na trg Unije.
Prices of dumped imports
Kitajski izvozniki, za katere veljajo ukrepi, so izvažali izdelke višjega cenovnega razreda ali izdelke z izrazitimi dekorativnimi lastnostmi in nižjo vsebnostjo goriva, tj. sveče za posebne priložnosti.

To je kitajskim proizvajalcem omogočilo zmanjšanje učinka veljavnih ukrepov in prodor v tržni segment, kjer je industrija Unije manj prisotna.
Average price (EUR/tonne)
Izvozniki, za katere so veljale najvišje dajatve, na trgu Unije med OPP pravzaprav niso bili prisotni.
Index (2009 = 100)
Nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen
The increase in prices can be explained by the fact that there was a change in the product mix of the Chinese products exported to the Union market.
Za analizo nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen se je tehtano povprečje prodajnih cen glede na vrsto izdelka industrije Unije za nepovezane stranke na trgu Unije, prilagojeno na raven franko tovarna, primerjalo z ustreznim tehtanim povprečjem cen dampinškega uvoza za prvo neodvisno stranko, določenim na podlagi CIF z ustrezno prilagoditvijo za stroške po uvozu.
Chinese exporters subject to measures exported higher value products or products with higher decorative features and lower fuel content, i.e. specialty candles.
Primerjava je pokazala, da uvoz izdelka, ki se pregleduje, v OPP ni nelojalno nižal prodajnih cen industrije Unije.
This allowed the Chinese producers to reduce the impact of the measures in force and to penetrate into a market segment where the Union industry is less present.
Vendar je treba omeniti, da uvoz izvoznikov, za katere veljajo protidampinške dajatve, predstavljajo predvsem posebne sveče, pa tudi standardne sveče z dodanimi elementi ročnega dela in okrasnimi elementi, ki so običajno dražje od glavnih vrst izdelka, ki jih proizvajajo vzorčeni proizvajalci Unije, in sicer stebrastih sveč in čajnih svečk.
The exporters which were subject to the highest duties were basically absent from the Union market in the RIP.
V pripombah k razkritju je ena od strani trdila, da bi morala Komisija razlikovati med različnimi vrstami izdelkov, ki se proizvajajo in prodajajo na trgu Unije.
Price undercutting
Po uvedbi dokončnih ukrepov so kitajski proizvajalci, za katere se uporabljajo dajatve, spremenili svoje tržno ravnanje in se začeli usmerjati v vrste izdelkov višjega cenovnega razreda, kot so okrašene in umetelne sveče, dišeče sveče in sveče v kozarcih, medtem ko so glavni izdelek, ki ga proizvaja in prodaja industrija Unije, ostale čajne svečke in stebraste sveče.
For the purposes of analysing price undercutting, the weighted average sales prices per product type of the Union industry to unrelated customers on the Union market, adjusted to ex-works level, were compared to the corresponding weighted average prices of the dumped imports to the first independent customer established on a CIF basis with an appropriate adjustment for post-importation cost.
Poleg tega je zadevna stran trdila, da je pri določeni vrsti izdelka, in sicer pri belih nedišečih čajnih svečkah, ki se štejejo za primerljive z izdelki industrije Unije, Komisija ugotovila, da so kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki nelojalno nižali prodajne cene industrije Unije za 6 %.
The comparison showed that during the RIP the imports of the product under review did not undercut the Union industry's prices.
Vendar, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi 85 zgoraj, je bilo nelojalno nižanje prodajnih cen ugotovljeno na podlagi primerjave cen za vse vrste izdelkov, ki so jih navedli kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki, in sicer je to 26 vrst izdelkov, s cenami za vrste izdelkov, ki jih je sporočila industrija Unije.
It should however be mentioned that the imports made by exporters subject to anti-dumping duties are mainly speciality candles, but also standard candles with added handcraft and decorations, generally more expensive than the core product types produced by the sampled Union producers, that is pillars and tea-lights candles.
Dejansko se sedanja preiskava ne more omejiti samo na eno določeno vrsto izdelka.
In its comments to the disclosure, one party claimed the Commission should make a distinction between the various types of products produced and sold in the Union market.
Nasprotno, izdelek, ki se pregleduje, mora analizirati kot celoto.
