Delta Group relied on excellent products, entered the international market, and became an important large foreign exchange earner in Shandong Province.
On June 3, 2014, the U.S. Steel Workers Federation formally submitted applications to the U.S. International Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Commerce on behalf of U.S. domestic industry, requesting anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigations on passenger car and light truck tire products from China. This is yet another trade barrier for the Chinese tire companies after the United States adopted special safeguard measures for Chinese cars and light truck tires in 2009.
In the face of the “double reverse†stick raised by the American Iron and Steel Workers’ Federation for Chinese tire companies, as the country’s largest tire production and export province, Shandong tire companies are actively responding and defending their own interests.
A huge loss has become a disaster area
“Shandong is an important tire exporter in the country. If the United States once again adopts the “ dual-reverse†measures for exporting tires to China, it will inevitably bring huge losses to tire companies in the province and will also affect the upstream and downstream industries.†Shandong Rubber Industry Zhang Hongmin, president of the association, said.
Zhang Hongmin said that in view of this situation, the Rubber Industry Association of Shandong Province held a special meeting to inform relevant companies about more than 30 tire companies such as Delta Group, Linglong Group, Double Star Group, Sailing Group, and Xingyuan Group. Participate in the meeting organized by the China Minmetals Chemicals Import & Export Chamber of Commerce and the China Rubber Industry Association. Baotuan actively responded to the complaints and argued for the interests of Chinese tire companies in the US market.
The United States is an important exporter of Shandong tire products. According to the person in charge of the Industrial Damage Investigation Division of the Department of Commerce of Shandong Province, in 2013, the amount of products involved in the US-related product transfer to the United States was 3.34 billion U.S. dollars, and more than 1,000 companies were involved. Among them, Shandong Province’s products involved in the US’s interventions amounted to US$1.71 billion, and 70 enterprises involved in the case. It accounts for 51.3% of the country. In 2013, the total export volume of passenger cars and light truck tires in Shandong Province was US$7.98 billion, of which US$1.71 billion was exported to the United States, which was the largest export market for the products involved in the province and accounted for 21.4% of the total export volume of the products involved. From January to May this year, the total export of passenger cars and light truck tires in Shandong Province was US$3.2 billion, of which US$700 million was exported to the United States, accounting for 21.9% of the total, and its share further increased.
“We had suffered serious damages before the special security case. At the same time as the share of exports to the United States declined, the profit margins continued to narrow. If the investigation of the 'double reverse' was finally established, the alleged dumping margin was 60.15%, and the alleged subsidies rate was 25.73%. It will bring greater impact to Shandong tire companies, and the loss caused by the export of American tire products will be even larger.†The executive of the Yongsheng Group, the largest in Shandong Province, said the amount involved.
Actively respond to arguments
It is understood that Shandong tire companies are currently actively collecting evidence to respond to the survey.
“In 2009, the US financial crisis led to a major economic recession and the automobile industry fell to the bottom. The U.S. Steel Workers Union proposed to take special safeguard measures to protect the local automobile tire companies from the impact of imported tires to a certain extent. 'Double anti' investigation is unreasonable, and the reason for submitting 'double anti-' measures to China's tires is also untenable.' Zhang Hongmin said.
He cited a series of data: In 2009, the US auto industry sold 10.43 million vehicles, a decrease of 21% compared with 2008. In 2013, the United States sold 15.69 million vehicles, which is an increase of approximately 50% from 2009 and reached 16.77 million vehicles this year.
"The continuous growth of the market will inevitably lead to the growth of tires and other parts. Moreover, there are obvious differences in the use of tires between China and the United States. The US tire companies mainly produce US-made tires, and China exports tires to the United States. There are no obvious conflicts in the market for replacement tires that flow to the market for auto repair shops. Therefore, there is no reason to propose 'double reverse', Zhang Hongmin said.
The head of the Yongsheng Group stated that they will assist the association and related departments in preparing in advance. On the one hand, they should be prepared with relevant evidence to prove that they do not have dumping and subsidies. On the other hand, they have to prove that the company has not caused any damage to the US related industries.
It is understood that the enterprises involved in this case include Japanese giants such as Bridgestone and Goodyear, which are investing in China. These companies have half of the US tires exported to the United States. There are also a few U.S. investment companies, once the U.S. tires to China The imposition of high punitive tariffs will result in a loss of both sides, so it may be opposed by many foreign-funded enterprises and at the same time it will increase the purchase cost of American consumers.
“The survey not only concerns the interests of the company, but also the interests of our country. The Shandong Rubber Association will fully support the relevant departments to actively respond to the maximum interest.†Zhang Hongmin said.
Face the barriers to practice internal strength
A number of tire export companies in Shandong Province reported that in recent years, exports to the United States have grown rapidly. On the one hand, the growth of the automobile market has stimulated demand. On the other hand, after the cancellation of some tariffs, the import tax rate in the United States has recovered to 4%. China's tire product price competitiveness has increased.
“In addition, the decline in raw material prices has also triggered a decline in export prices, and it is not that enterprises cut prices to compete for the market. In 2013, although the sales price of tires decreased, the price of natural rubber, the main raw material, fell more sharply, and domestic and export gross profit margins continued to increase by 5.75 and 2.86. In percentage points, the change range of domestic and foreign sales gross profit margins is different, mainly due to the structural differences between domestic and foreign sales of tire products.†Delong Tire related personnel introduced.
Moreover, the increase in Shandong tire exports also benefited from the company's connotative development, and the proportion of high-performance, low-profile, ultra-low-profile, high-speed semi-steel radial tires and tubeless steel radial tires increased significantly. Regarding all-steel radial tires, Delta, Delicatessen, Sailing Group (Jinyu) and Double Star have become the main supporting manufacturers of China FAW and Jinan CNG; for all-steel radial tires, the triangle has been Caterpillar and Terex. , Volvo and many other world-renowned construction machinery manufacturers provide support; in the area of ​​semi-steel radial tires, Delta has become the first domestic manufacturer to supply internationally-renowned car brands. The exquisite UHP tires have entered the GM, Ford, and Brazil's modern, The global procurement system of world-class automotive plants such as Renault Nissan and Tata Motors in Russia, exquisite GREENMAX products in the Finnish international tire evaluation, combined with Michelin and Dunlop.
In response to foreign trade barriers and breakthroughs in many countries' anti-dumping and countervailing measures against Chinese products, Shandong tire companies have planned overseas construction factories one after another. Delicate, triangular and other enterprises have become the first representatives of the province to “go globalâ€.
In January 2014, Linglong Group's first overseas project exquisite Thai subsidiary's 10 million high-performance semi-steel radial tires went offline: Ogori Tire and Indonesia East Group co-invested in Jakarta to build an annual output of 10 million and a half. Steel tires, the project was opened in November 2012.
“Since the rapid development of the Shandong tire industry has rivaled foreign companies, it has received more and more trade barriers. We must start with our own development, improve product performance, expand the scope of exports, and let Chinese tires go all over the world.†said Zhang Hongmin. .
