Centravis and Handy &
Harman form strategic alliance
Centravis, Ukraine, a leading international
producer of seamless stainless steel tube
and pipe, has formed a strategic partnership
with Handy & Harman Tube Company,
USA. Handy & Hartman is a world producer
of hi-tech products from stainless tubes.
The company will become a principal
supplier of mother tubes for Handy &
Harman, including the production of special
mother tubes meeting additional customer
requirements. This agreement was reached
at a meeting of the companies held earlier
this year.
In 2008, Centravis plans to supply over
300t of mother tubes to Handy & Harman, a
figure expected to triple next year. Centravis
will ensure this target is met by launching a
new tube pressing line and extrusion press
(4,400t) at its main industrial site. Complete
installation of this new equipment will be
completed in the first quarter of 2009.
The strategic partnership between the two
companies will also include expansion of
the product range of both companies (new
steel grades and sizes), cooperation in
innovative product development, and joint
distribution of tubes produced by Centravis
and Handy & Harman.
Joint company entry into the market of
North America is among the most important
aspects of the cooperation. By the end of
2008, the companies will hold a number of
business meetings with the largest metal
product distributors in North America. In
turn, Centravis will ensure product sales
support to Handy & Harman in the CIS
markets where the company has a strong
market position.
Mr Ilya Shirokobrod, the Centravis director
of strategy and business development,
states, “North America is a strategic region
for our business development. It is in this
region that we are gradually intensifying
our activities. For the time being, North
American countries account for 3 per cent
of our company sales and this figure is
expected to triple by 2010.”

positive news that Metav will not take place
alongside the usual exhibit partners. The
expanded Messe Düsseldorf showgrounds

that there will be a considerably larger
exhibit area for Tube and wire, to be held
from 12-16 April 2010.
After the excellent results of the two
events in 2008, Tube 2010 is expected to
attract 35,000 visitors and 1,000 exhibiting
companies in a display area of 40,000m2 . It
will take place in halls 1 to 7.
A complete range of products and services
will be displayed in these halls, including
tube production via processing to machining.
The exhibits will include raw materials,
tubes and accessories, tube production
machinery, process technology tools and
auxiliary materials, measurement and
control technology, and test engineering.
