The pipe market in India is growing steadily and will witness capacity additions as the government gives high

priority to developing infrastructure in the country. Pipes are imperative in all natural gas projects and waterways projects. PVC pipes are becoming popular due to a variety of reasons and are seen to replace traditional pipes. An analysis of drivers explains growth factors such as increasing spend by the government on various oil & natural gas projects and hence the need for pipelines. This also explains the special emphasis on the major upcoming pipelines and the expansion of city gas distribution network. Expansion of water projects and the focus of government towards urban development, competitive edge of Indian players with respect to European counterparts and the tremendous growth in real estate and auto sector are the other important drivers The key challenges identified include rising input costs, appreciation of rupee and tremendous competition from the Chinese manufacturers. Recent trends in pipe market include increasing popularity of PVC pipes, preference of HSAW pipes in comparison to LSAW pipes and entry barrier for a new player.

THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A GAP BETWEEN THE DEMAND AND SUPPLY OF PIPES. SOME INFO ON THE POTENTIAL INDUSRTY EARNING (LATENT/ NOT REALISED YET) IS GIVEN BELOW The Latent demand for pipes and pipe/hose fittings in India is estimated to be $7,911.4 million in 2009. The distribution of the potential industry earnings in India, however, is not evenly distributed across regions. Maharashtra is the largest market with $1,075.6 million or 13.60 percent, followed by Uttar Pradesh with $917.3 million or 11.60 percent, and then Gujarat with $651.2 million or 8.23 percent of the latent demand in India. In essence, if firms target these top 3 regions, they cover some 33.43 percent of the latent demand for pipes and pipe/hose fittings in India.

Madhya Pradesh contributes 5.7 % which is 454 million US dollars towards the potential earning market.

Gully traps are buried in the ground with the tops or surround raised above ground level to prevent ground water entering into the sewer. Gully Trap stops sewage from returning up through the system and spilling into a house.

Optimum Sanitation Solution

Sanitation lines are not concealed & are exposed to sunlight, which leads to expansion & contraction due to temperature variations.The expansion & contraction is maximum in vertical lines. General site observations are that the rubber rings are removed and Solvent cement is applied for ease of operation. Expansion & Contraction is minimum in SWR fittings hence no allowance for this is needed.Hence Finolex introduced Selfit fittings & Ringfit pipes that gives an optimum sanitation system solution. Here Ringfit pipes take care of the expansion & contraction. Selfit fittings make it cost effective without affecting the performance. Finolex also recommends having all horizontal lines with selfit jointing.

This is because : These lines are prone to water logging. These lines are mostly buried under the flooring &/or not exposed to sunlight. They can be of short lengths
