Welcome!
A Happy New Year to all our
readers and a warm welcome to
the first edition of Tube Products
INTERNATIONAL magazine.
This exciting new trade publication
has a large international audience
of buyers, specifiers and business
end-users of metal, plastic &
composite tube and pipe materials,
products and fittings.
Within the pages of every issue we report the latest
corporate and economic tube and pipe industry
information, as well as featuring new technological
advances in materials, products and ancillaries
available within the tube and pipe industry around the
world.
In this inaugural issue you will read about tube and
pipe products manufactured from stainless steel and
the technological advances in this material.
A further feature on plastic tube and pipe products and
ancillaries is well worth a read – a massively growing
sector in our industry. We have also included a special
section previewing Tube Düsseldorf 2008 (31 March
– 4 April) – the most important international exhibition
in the industry’s calendar.
