Welcome to the latest issue of Tube Products
International. This month we have features on
upcoming trade shows Stainless Steel World
Expo in The Netherlands and FABTECH in
Chicago and we take an in-depth look at the
latest developments and products in the world
of stainless steel tubes and small diameter,
precision tubes.
Wearealso luckyenough tohaveavery interesting
interview with Sandvik Brazil veteran Angelo
Martines, which should prove an interesting read
for anyone interested in becoming more involved
in Brazil and South America in general.
Last but not least we have an extended feature
about the specific difficulties of installing pipe
systems in tunnels from leading expert Dave
Hudson who is senior product engineer at
Victaulic.
During the next couple of months I will be
chalking up the air miles with flights to São Paulo
in Brazil and Chicago, USA. I cannot wait to visit
both TuboTech and FABTECH and I am sure I
will see plenty of the usual familiar faces. It is
always good to meet readers face to face.
Next issue we are taking our first look at Tube
Düsseldorf 2014 with a preview of the show as
well as features focusing on tubes used in the
aerospace and car industries and those used
specifically for refrigeration and HVAC. If you
have any stories related to these subjects or
tube, pipe or valve products in general please
drop me a line at rory@intras.
