TPI January 2014

A new European distribution centre for PIPE After the success of its 2013 exhibition campaign, including Steelfab and Tube Arabia in the Middle East and the Schweissen & Schneiden Exhibition in Germany in September, PIPE Ltd will once again be showcasing its extensive pipeworking product portfolio at the upcoming Tube Fair in Düsseldorf from 7 to 11 April 2014. Regular exhibitors at Tube for nearly ten years, this will be PIPE’s fourth Tube fair. “Since our first presence at the Tube fair, the fair has gone from strength to strength, increasing footfall year on year, while maintaining the relevance and quality of visitors, making it an excellent platform for launching new products into the pipe and tube market,” said managing director Tony Tagliaferro of the show. “Some of our best customers have developed from initial contact at the Tube fair, and have grown to become some of the most valued and long-term relationships. The Tube show, among others, really is an essential platform for us.” PIPE will be unveiling a number of new pipe- and tube- related machining products and ancillary tools, including new self-centring O/D mounted split frame pipe cutting and bevelling machines, together with the latest incarnations of its popular mid-size dedicated pipe bevelling machines, the Supermaxi series. Since the last Tube fair in 2012, PIPE has gone from strength to strength, both in the domestic and European markets, as well as further afield. This is partly due to its new international sales strategy and the success that has come from its presence at Tube, and other international trade shows. By the time the Tube 2014 fair arrives, PIPE will also have fully established its new, central European distribution hub. With the directive to facilitate existing and new customers and distributors with its complete portfolio of pipe working tools and equipment – “this is a natural step in progression for PIPE,” said international account manager Justin Gammond. “With the dramatic increase in international business for us over recent years it has now become necessary for us to set up a base on mainland Europe to allow us to offer even faster delivery times at lower costs and to meet the demands of our customers. It will also further grow our presence within the European market. These are exciting times at PIPE, and we look forward to meeting many existing and, I am sure, plenty of new potential customers at the Tube show.”
