Some development experiences from Tianjin steel pipe enterprises

There are many successful experiences in the development process of Tianjin steel pipe enterprises. Although they have certain advantages, they win the pipe market position gradually through their continuous efforts both in foreign trade problems and technology issues of welded steel pipe. They can deal with those problems efficiently. Now we can have a look at what are the experiences worth learning by Tianjin steel pipe companies.

First of all, we should improve the quality of products steadily. Under the market environment where pipe quality is the most important, more and more customer are willing to pay for good quality instead of inferior products. Steel pipe suppliers should make breakthroughs in pipe quality if they want to win the market foothold so as to get a better development without blindly price war. Secondly, we should optimize the production structure of products which is very necessary after meeting the basic demands of products. How to optimize? Constant innovation in product specifications can response to this issue. For example,the specification list of round steel pipe can not meet all the requirements from different customers. More and more customers are willing to purchase customized products. This change is a sign that steel pipe manufacturers should make more creations in steel pipe specifications and the first step is innovate the products mould. Although we can still not meet the needs of all customers, we will expand our customer base to a certain extent.

Thirdly, we should improve our ability in integrating industry resources as the development of pipe industry requires the support of many resources needed integrating so that more powerful production capacity can be formed. This job requires great courage and strength, so structural steel pipe suppliers should unite together to integrate the advantage resources. In order to integrate resources efficiently, we need to know what are the downstream industries for galvanized steel pipes? Such problems should be actively explored and jointed development situation should be formed so as to enhance the ability to cope with market risks.

Finally, we should make the best use of existing resources. Each steel pipe supplier has its own advantages. For example, some are better in raw material such as pipe black steel;some are in pipe market even in government policy. We should see clearly the advantages of their own development first, and then make the fullest use of these advantages to promote the development of the enterprise itself.
