Kubatanidzwa: Komisheni inobvumidza kutorwa kwemabhizinesi akati wandei eRockwood naHuntsman

Zvichitevera kuongorora kwakadzama, European Commission yakabvisa pasi peEU Merger Regulation kutorwa kwakarongwa neHuntsman Corporation kwehuwandu hwemabhizimisi emakemikari akaitwa neRockwood Specialties Group, Inc. - makambani eUnited States. Iko kubvumidzwa kunoenderana nekubviswa kwebhizinesi raHuntsman's TR52. TR52 ndiyo huru yeHuntsman titanium dioxide giredhi inoshandiswa kudhinda ingi zvikumbiro (sekudhinda ingi dzinoshandiswa mukurongedza zvinochinjika). Komisheni yainetsekana kuti kutengeserana uku, sezvakaziviswa pakutanga, kungadai kwakagonesa sangano rakabatanidzwa kukwidza mitengo yetitanium dioxide yekudhinda zvikumbiro zveingi muEuropean Economic Area (EEA). Zvisungo zvinopihwa naHuntsman zvinogadzirisa zvinonetsa izvi.

Ongororo yakadzama yeKomisheni yakaratidza kuti kutengeserana kungadai kwakabatanidza vatengesi vaviri vanotungamira vetitanium dioxide yekudhinda ingi zvikumbiro, zvichiita kuti pave nechinzvimbo chikuru muEEA. Ongororo yeKomisheni yakaratidzawo kuti mubatanidzwa uyu waisazotarisana nemakwikwi akakwana kubva kune vamwe vatengesi vetitanium dioxide vakaita seDuPont, Tronox, Kronos, Eastern Europe neAsia vanogadzira, vasina ruzivo rwakakodzera kana zvinokurudzira kuwedzera pamusika. Komisheni yakaonawo kuti musika uyu unoratidzwa nezvipingamupinyi zvakakura zvekupinda, zvakanyanya kubatanidza kuziva-maitiro uye mari yekushandiswa kwemari. Naizvozvo, Komisheni yaive nekunetsekana kuti vatengi vangadai vakawana zvichinetsa kuchinja kune mamwe vatengesi.

Kuti agadzirise zvinonetsa izvi, Huntsman akapa kupa bhizinesi repasi rose reTR52, kusanganisira iyo TR52 mhando, tekinoroji uye ruzivo, hurongwa hwevatengi uye vamwe vashandi vakakosha. Zvisungo izvi zvinobvisa kupindirana pakati pezviitwa zveHuntsman neRockwood mumusika wetitanium dioxide yekudhinda inki yekushandisa muEEA. Vanozogonesa mutengi webhizinesi reTR52 kuti aite bhizinesi rinoshanda mukukwikwidza nesangano rakabatanidzwa uye vamwe vanotora chikamu pamusika. Makambani akazvipira kusavhara chibvumirano asati apedza chibvumirano chekutengesa bhizinesi rekubvisa kune mutengi akakodzera anobvumidzwa neKomisheni.

Naizvozvo Komisheni yakagumisa kuti kutengeserana, sekugadziriswa nezvisungo, kwaisazosimudza makwikwi. Sarudzo inosungirwa pakutevedzera zvizere zvisungo.

Titanium dioxide ichena pigment inoshandiswa kuchena, kupenya uye kuwedzera opacity kune zvakasiyana-siyana zvezvigadzirwa, zvakadai sePVC mahwindo ewindo, mabhanhire emotokari, mabhati, mapepa, zvipfeko, mazino, kirimu, makiki, nezvimwewo. Komisheni yakatobata neindasitiri yetitanium dioxide, semuenzaniso muna 2009 nokuda kwekutora pfuma yeTronoxnts. IP/09/1977).

Kuitwa kwakarongwa kwakaziviswa kuKomisheni kuti ibvumidzwe pamutemo musi wa29 Ndira 2014. Musi wa5 Kurume 2014 Komisheni yakavhura ongororo yakadzama (ona IP/14/220) Pana 8 Chikunguru 2014 Komisheni yakaudza mapato mukutaura kwekupokana kuti kutengeserana kwakarongwa, sezvakaziviswa pakutanga, kwakasimudza kukwikwidza kwakakomba mumusika wetitanium dioxide yekudhinda zvikumbiro zveingi muEEA.

Komisheni yakaongororawo kukwikwidzana kwezvakarongwa zvekutorwa mumisika yetitanium dioxide yezvizorwa, mishonga uye chikafu, shinda, machira, mapurasitiki nemapepa, pamwe nemisika yezvimwe zvigadzirwa zvekugadzirwa kwetitanium dioxide, zvinoti ferrous sulphate uye sefa munyu. Ongororo yeKomisheni yakawana kuti Huntsman acharamba achitarisana, mushure mekubatana, kukwikwidza kwakakosha mumisika iyi yese kubva kune vamwe vatori vechikamu vemusika, seKronos, DuPont uye Precheza.

Rockwood ikambani yeUS inoshanda muchikamu cheakakosha makemikari uye zvepamberi zvinhu zvinoshandiswa maindasitiri nekutengesa zvinangwa.

Mabhizinesi eRockwood akawanikwa naHuntsman anovhara kugadzirwa kwetitanium dioxide uye inoshanda ekuwedzera (mabhizinesi anoitwa pasi pezita rekuti "Sachtleben"), mavara emavara, kurapwa kwematanda uye makemikari ekudzivirira huni muNorth America, makemikari ekuchenesa mvura, uye kupihwa kwemasara emotokari erabha (bhizinesi rinoitwa pasi pezita re "Gomet").

Kubatana kutonga mitemo uye maitiro

Komisheni ine basa rekuongorora kubatanidzwa uye kutora kunosanganisira makambani ane mutengo pamusoro pezvimwe zvikumbaridzo (ona Chinyorwa 1 che Kubatanidza Regulation) uye kudzivirira kuwanda kunogona kukanganisa zvakanyanya makwikwi muEEA kana chero chikamu chayo chakakura.

Iyo yakawanda yakawanda yekubatanidza yakaziviswa haikonzeri matambudziko emakwikwi uye inocheneswa mushure mekuongorora kwemaitiro. Kubva panoziviswa kutengeserana, Komisheni inowanzova nemazuva makumi maviri nemashanu ekushanda kuti isarudze kupa mvumo (Chikamu I) kana kutanga ongororo yakadzama (Chikamu II).
