Keeping you in touch with Opportunities in Asia.

Tube Singapore 2003

Tube Singapore, Southeast Asia’s leading trade fair for the tube, pipe and related industries, has become an important platform for those who seek to find and to keep in touch with the opportunities available in Asia.

Premiered in 1997, Tube Singapore is the Asian version of Tube Düsseldorf, the world’s no. 1 trade fair for tube and pipe. Tube Singapore has established itself as the most effective and efficient forum to gain access to Asia. Exhibitors have benefited from showcasing their cutting edge technologies, new machinery, new equipment and accessories. They were able to meet the buyers and decision makers in the industry face to face, promote and maintain their corporate presence as well as assess the potentials of the Southeast Asian markets. Visitors, on the other hand, were able to acquire comprehensive information on products, materials, technology and equipment and meet the industry experts. These are the very reasons why visitors have acclaimed Tube Singapore as “the” leading trade show for the region’s tube, pipe and the various industries it serves.

Held for the fourth time in Singapore, the 2003 staging of Tube Singapore will provide the industry with solutions and peripherals for the region’s industrial, manufacturing, infrastructure and construction development.

ASEAN - of strategic importance

With Southeast Asia getting ready for recovery and with signs of positive growth in the horizon, the region’s economic prospects are projected to be brighter. It is projected that from 2003 onwards Southeast Asia’s export sector will benefit from the renewed growth in the US and EU and also from the much anticipated world trade growth. The ASEAN free-trade area (AFTA) is also expected to raise the levels of regional trade by 2003.

ASEAN member countries are now looking into strengthening the region as an economic grouping through the formation of an ASEAN Economic Community. Having a more realistic appreciation of its strength and weaknesses and to compete in the global economy, it is the intention of ASEAN to integrate their markets to form a common economic space for manufacturing and other sectors. The ASEAN economic integration will no doubt change the economic structure of the individual member countries. Take for example the electronics sector, Southeast Asia is already a single economic space. Components for products such as television sets and personal computers are made in various parts of Southeast Asia.

As a region, ASEAN will be of strategic importance to countries such as USA, Japan, China, Australia and Europe.

Southeast Asian countries, through the many years of investments, have a good industrial base, sound infrastructure and a reservoir of skilled workers. Situated at the crossroads for East and West, Southeast Asia has always been outward looking and open to trade.

Industrial and manufacturing sectors - main growth impetus

The main growth impetus for most ASEAN countries will come from the industrial and manufacturing sectors which is expected to rebound in tandem with the projected recovery of the US in 2003. This will pave the way for the resumption of a steady and sustained growth pattern in the region’s economy. Analysts are also projecting a surge in world trade by then.

Act Now - Be There!

More and more serious buyers from Asia are congregating at Tube Singapore in search of tube and pipe technologies and manufacturing machinery as well as process technology tools, tubes, pipes and accessories. No one should miss this opportunity to meet with the investments in materials, machinery, equipment and technology.

	Concurent Events

	The All Asia Wire & Cable Trade Fair The fifth presentation of wire Singapore will be held alongside Tube Singapore. The exhibit profile includes machinery, equipment and technology for the the manufacture of wire, cable, fibre optic, spring and fasteners; used machines, process technology tools, measuring and control technology, specialist areas and related trade and services. The parallel staging with Tube Singapore is synergistic especially for both the exhibitors and visitors.


	The All Asia Joining - Cutting - Surfacing Trade Fair The second presentation of Essen Welding Asia, an affiliated event of “Schweissen & Schneiden”, will once again be co-located with wire Singapore and Tube Singapore 2003. Its first appearance in 1999 was well received. Essen Welding Asia will be presenting joining, surfacing and cutting technology systems, accessories, materials for welding, thermal cutting, injection and surfacing as well as measurement and testing technology.
