TPi September 2013 - page 8

A warm welcome to the September issue
of Tube Products International. We have an
interesting feature on the latest developments
in plastic tubes and pipes and also take a look
at the ‘K’ Plastic 2013 show in Germany and
Tube South-East Asia in Thailand. The team
will be at all the big shows coming up so if you
are at Tube South-East Asia in sunny Bangkok
please do come and say hello.
I am particularly pleased this issue to able to
feature an in-depth article on valve function
from Swagelok and an interview with Andy
Taylor, CEO of Radius Systems, as well as all
the latest company and product news from
around the international tube industry. There
has certainly been plenty happening so it’s a
bumper action packed issue.
I will soon be heading to TuboTech in São Paulo,
Brazil, for the second time and it will be very
interesting to see how the country has evolved in
the past two years as Brazil’s growth as a major
international power continues. Some of the
excitement surrounding next year’s FIFA World
Cup and the Olympics in Rio in a couple of years
has been dampened by the recent riots but this
is still a very exciting time for the country and
hopefully the people of the country will come
to an amicable agreement with their leaders.
I found it a charming country that I look forward
to visiting once again.
Next issue we have features on stainless steel
tubes, small diameter high precision tubes as
well as stainless steel world
