News in fire protection pipes and fittings
The new GIPP fire protection pipe and fitting line being showcased at Tubotech, which ends this Thursday at São Paulo Expo, is the result of a partnership between IPC Brasil and Chinese industries. The company is exhibiting the new product at the Abimei Island. According to Flávio Antônio Paiva, president of the company, the product was entirely developed in Brazil. “Even the brand was defined by us,” he guarantees. The choice of a Chinese manufacturer, Paiva explains, was to obtain a more affordable product. “The cost of production here would be higher.”.
Paiva points out that market research was conducted and identified that consumers were looking for a product that met certifications and had a more robust appearance. “And we were able to offer exactly what the customer wants,” he states.
