On May 12, after nearly nine months of anti-dumping investigations, the EU Trade Commission officially announced the preliminary ruling on the anti-dumping of China's export of aluminum alloy wheels, and announced a unified anti-dumping duty of 20.6% on China's export of aluminum alloy wheels.
On the afternoon of May 14, the person in charge of Hebei Lizhong Wheel Manufacturing Co., Ltd. told this newspaper, “At present, the 20.6% anti-dumping duty imposed by the EU is also a temporary tariff. The local EU agents do not have to pay the tariff in cash, but only A bank guarantee is required. If the EU's final ruling in September still maintains the preliminary ruling, local agents must pay these tariffs, which will greatly weaken the competitiveness of Chinese aluminum alloy wheels in the EU!"
Anti-dumping preliminary ruling China lost
Xiong Chuanlin, deputy secretary general of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, said that if the EU implements anti-dumping measures, China's aluminum alloy wheel industry will be hit hard. Anti-dumping duties are not affordable for one company. The worst result is that China's aluminum alloy wheel products Will all withdraw from Europe.
Li Xiaoqing, secretary general of the China Automobile Industry Association Wheel Committee, said that the EU anti-dumping investigation involved more than 40 automobile aluminum alloy wheel manufacturing enterprises that were exported to the EU. Once lost, it may cause 40,000 employees in the aluminum alloy wheel industry to be unemployed.
CITIC Daika is the largest exporter of domestic aluminum alloy wheel hubs to the EU. It talks about the “injury†of EU “anti-dumpingâ€. On Thursday, Daika’s spokesperson Xiao Xiaojun told this newspaper, “Daka as an aluminum alloy wheel The enterprises that export the most in the EU will suffer huge losses, including the huge investment in the development of the European market in the early stage, the equipment and raw materials purchased in order to meet the requirements of the EU automobile factory, the goods in transit, and the loss of production of some products."
The results of the investigation ignore the facts of the Chinese
The EU anti-dumping investigation against Chinese aluminum alloy wheels began in June last year.
At the end of June last year, the European Wheel Hub Manufacturers Association, on behalf of the EU's six aluminum alloy wheel manufacturers, submitted an appeal to the European Commission for launching an anti-dumping investigation against Chinese aluminum alloy wheels. In mid-August last year, the European Commission informed the Chinese side that it would investigate this.
In September last year, the EU selected four domestic companies, namely, Friendship, Daika, Wanfeng and Lizhong, to conduct a first round of investigations, mainly to investigate whether Chinese companies have the "market economy main body status". According to the results of the first round of investigations released by the European Union at the end of January this year, the four companies surveyed “have no market economy statusâ€. Subsequently, the EU conducted a second round of investigations on many domestic aluminum alloy wheel manufacturers.
As early as the EU investigation, the Bureau of Import and Export Fair Trade of the Ministry of Commerce has repeatedly stated that “the EU initiated anti-dumping investigations on Chinese aluminum alloy wheels and did not comply with the WTO anti-dumping agreement!†China Association of Automobile Manufacturers as the representative of China's aluminum alloy wheel manufacturers At the beginning of the EU investigation, it was said that the European Wheel Manufacturers Association submitted a complaint with problems in terms of “applicant qualifications†and “substitute countries†and did not comply with the relevant provisions of the WTO anti-dumping agreement.
On Tuesday, in response to the preliminary ruling of the European Union, the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers issued a harshly worded statement. "The European Commission ignored the Chinese view and made an unfair ruling on the case." He said that "this will seriously harm Chinese auto practitioners." The feelings have changed the impression of auto industry managers, practitioners and consumers on the European automotive and parts industry, which will ultimately affect the development of EU companies in China."
It is understood that the European Commission said in its preliminary report that cheap imports from China have caused EU manufacturers to suffer a sharp decline in production and sales, and their market share and sales prices have also been hit. According to the data of the European Commission, the sales volume of China's aluminum alloy wheel products in the European market in 2006 was 3.7 million, but as of June 2009, it reached 6.1 million pieces, and the import volume increased by 66%, while the market share of Chinese products. Almost doubled, from 6.3% in 2006 to 12.4% in 2009.
According to China Customs statistics, from July 2008 to May 2009, China’s aluminum alloy wheels exported to Europe accounted for less than 8% of the EU market. At the same time, Chinese companies exported aluminum wheels to the EU at a price higher than the domestic market. It did not constitute dumping and did not cause damage to the European industry. This overturned the EU's assertion on “damage and causalityâ€.
China will continue to defend
Wanfeng Aowei is a major exporter of Chinese aluminum alloy wheels to the European market. According to its 2009 annual report: in 2009, its foreign market sales of 661,136,700 yuan is higher than the sales revenue of 653,448,800 yuan in the domestic market, but its overseas market profit is 78,761,200 yuan, which is much lower than the domestic market's profit of 12,287,690 yuan.
This can be seen from one side, the Chinese aluminum alloy wheel enterprise has not been dumped in the European market.
Relevant experts also said last week that "China's aluminum alloy wheels are mainly concentrated in the EU's after-sales service market, and the actual proportion of OEMs is less than 3%. It is said that China's export of aluminum alloy wheels has impacted the European aluminum alloy wheel industry. It’s a laugh!â€
On the afternoon of last Thursday, the relevant person of Lizhong Wheel told the newspaper that “just after the TV conference with the Chamber of Commerce for Electrical and Mechanical Engineering and other enterprises, and next Thursday, we will have a meeting to discuss what measures to take to defend, how to defend?†Said: "There will be legal means to directly defend." However, in the absence of the final final result, Daika is also very "helpless", "will negotiate with the EU car factory to modify the 2010 supply arrangements, and Consultation with EU customers on the issue of tariff sharing on goods shipped and pending shipments," the company said.
Wanfeng Aowei said in the announcement last week that "the company will make up for the decline of the European market by increasing the supply of the domestic market and the expansion of other international markets such as Japan and the United States." Wanfeng Aowei also said that this year In the first 4 months, the company achieved sales of 73.561 million yuan in the EU. It was originally planned to achieve sales of 308 million yuan in the EU in 2010. However, due to the preliminary ruling of the anti-dumping, it is expected that sales in the EU will fall by about 40%.
Domestic aluminum alloy wheel companies may still be waiting for the moment when Qiankun reversed. The person in charge of the Lizhong wheel said: "The EU will not have this preliminary ruling as the final ruling, and domestic companies still have six months of defense time!"
