Welcome to the latest issue of Tube Products
INTERNATIONAL.
This issue we have a feature on fittings, flanges,
valves & connectors and we take a look at
the trade shows Stainless Steel World 2015 in
Maastricht and Tolexpo 2015, which takes place
in Paris. We also have an extended article taking
an in-depth look at orbital welding solutions
with a particular focus on offshore umbilicals,
which starts on page 56.
I have just returned from Tube South East Asia
2015, which was a very well organised show.
We received a warm welcome and a lot of nice
feedback about the magazine and met a lot of
new contacts, which was great as it was my first
visit to Thailand. There is clearly huge potential
in the market there with so many towns and
cities modernising their infrastructure and it will
be interesting to see how it grows over the next
few years.
Next issue the editorial deadline is 23 October
and we will begin our extensive Tube Düsseldorf
show coverage. We are a media partner for the
event and the January issue will feature a show
preview so please do get your editorial in to give
visitors a sneak preview of any new products
that you will be exhibiting and where to find you.
In the January issue we also have features on
steel tubes, construction & structural tubes and
pipe rehabilitation & repair so please send your
press releases to
rory@intras.co.uk. Both the
January and March issues of
themagazine will be distributed
at Tube Düsseldorf.
I hope you enjoy themagazine.
