Welcome to the latest issue of Tube Products
International, which is a special Tube Düsseldorf
issue of the magazine.
I hope that within its 124 pages (which I am proud
to say is our largest ever issue) you will find all
of the information you need during your visit to
Germany. Inside you will discover a full list of
exhibitors and their stand numbers as well as all
the latest news on the industry. We also have in-
depth information on many of the products that
are being exhibited in our Düsseldorf Exhibitor
Section, which starts on page 78.
The magazine is an official media partner of the
Tube show and is being distributed in several
locations so be sure to pick up your copy. We
will be in the main entrance hall and I will also
be based in Hall 4, stand B29 all week.
With 1,179 exhibiting companies, Tube once
again broke its exhibitor record in 2012 (and
has grown eight-fold since the first show in
1988). Last time 2,600 extra visitors attended
so 2014 should be equally spectacular.
A new feature at Tube 2014 will be the Plastic
Tube Forum (PTF) a special show about
plastic tubes and their versatile applications.
At the forum the organisers will address the
challenges and opportunities of the plastic tube
market relating to energy and environmental
engineering. It will be located in Hall 7.1 and
is aimed at raw material producers, tube
manufacturers and dealers,
engineers and users.
Enjoy the magazine and have
a fantastic time in Germany.
