Conflicts, trade tensions, and increased uncertainties in a world with supply chains can affect investment. The pipe sector is no different. However, Brazilian companies are overcoming this difficult scenario with investments in technology and achieving good results.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe steel sector faces worldwide challenges and a prolonged recession in Brazil. Overall volumes have dropped significantly. To keep growing, it is essential that we diversify our operations with both new clients and new products, says Luis Otavio Barbosa, commercial director of\u00a0<strong>BTL Steelworks.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The company is one of the participants in the\u00a0<strong>10th edition of Tubotech, International Trade Fair for Tubes, Valves, Pumps, Fittings and Components,\u00a0<\/strong>organized and promoted by Cipa Fiera Milano with the support of ABITAM (Brazilian Association of the Metal Pipe and Fitting Industry) and Tarcom Promo\u00e7\u00f5es. The event, which is the sector's main showcase, takes place from October 1 to 3 at the S\u00e3o Paulo Expo Exhibition &amp; Convention Center, in S\u00e3o Paulo.<\/p>\n<p>Simultaneously, the\u00a0<strong>4th Wire South America \u2013 International Wire and Cable Fair,<\/strong>\u00a0whose products and visitors have great synergy with Tubotech's audiences. The joint events will feature the participation of more than 500 national and international exhibiting brands, occupying an area of 20,000 m\u00b2, and an estimated audience of 13,000 industry professionals.<\/p>\n<p>BTL Steelworks specializes in seamless steel pipes. Used in the most demanding applications, mainly in situations of high pressure, high torsional stress, and the conveyance of toxic gases (where traditional welded pipes cannot and should not be used), the product is the company's bet to navigate the challenging scenario while maintaining an agile and lean operation. \u201cWe hope that Tubotech will give us greater market visibility,\u201d states Luis Otavio.<\/p>\n<p>BTL, a Brazilian company (100%), began operations in this specific sector in 2009, when\u2014after visiting international manufacturers\u2014it gained access to seamless steel pipe rolling technology and subsequently began local production. For the 10th edition of Tubotech, the company plans to present one innovation for the oil and gas sector and another for the steel industry.<\/p>\n<p>To the director of\u00a0<strong>Nacional Tubos<\/strong>, Jo\u00e3o Luis Groth, only sustainable GDP growth can mean \u201cbetter days\u201d for the sector. \u201cA lot of competition with low consumption makes the market very weak,\u201d he assesses.<\/p>\n<p>As a strategy, Groth states that Nacional Tubos works with all suppliers in order to serve the customer in the best possible way. \u201cWe are going to bring ultra-high-strength tubes, which are increasingly being used by agricultural implement manufacturers. Tubes with a yield strength above 700MPa,\u201d says Groth. The executive sees participation in Tubotech as a way to expand networking. \u201cIt is a relationship channel with current and potential clients, where we can receive them and also meet suppliers and share market information,\u201d says Groth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Customization<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes technology makes room for innovative actions. Such as customizing the service. That is what\u00a0<strong>Oliveira Tubes<\/strong>\u00a0in working with custom-cut parts for the customer, offering greater ease and catering even to the most demanding ones. Despite being a new market for the company, Tubos Oliveira states that it believes the prospects are good.<\/p>\n<p>Specialized in carbon steel pipes, the company says it is confident that the pipe market will grow in the coming years, especially with the prospect of new projects that had been shelved due to the economic crisis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Service:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tubotech and Wire South America<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Data:<\/strong>\u00a0October 1 to 3, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Time:<\/strong>\u00a0from 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM<\/p>\n<p><strong>Local<\/strong>\u00a0S\u00e3o Paulo Expo Exhibition &amp; Convention Center<\/p>\n<p>Imigrantes Highway, Km 1.5 \u2013 S\u00e3o Paulo\/SP<\/p>\n<p><strong>More information and registration on the websites:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tubotech.com.br\/en\/\">www.tubotech.com.br<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiresa.com.br\/\">www.wiresa.com.br<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Cipa Fiera Milano<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cipa Fiera Milano, the Brazilian subsidiary of Fiera Milano\u2014one of the largest trade fair and congress organizers in the world, which each year attracts approximately 30,000 exhibitors and over five million visitors\u2014became the majority shareholder of Cipa do Brasil in 2011, giving rise to Cipa Fiera Milano.
