What are Copper Pipes and Tubes?
Copper pipes and tubes are specialized products made from copper that are extremely durable in nature. They are commercially available in a wide variety of diameters and wall thicknesses. They are non-permeable to air and gas and offer reduced chances of leakage and contamination caused by oxygen, ultraviolet (UV) rays, and temperature from the external environment. They possess a high yield, tensile, and fatigue strength with antibacterial properties, which play a crucial role in the transportation of medical gases and water distribution systems. They are widely utilized in underground water and gas services, chilled water mains, drainage and vent systems, solar heating systems, fuel-oil systems, non-flammable medical gas systems, and industrial heat exchanger systems. Furthermore, as copper pipes and tubes offer high thermal conductivity, dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance, their demand is rising around the world.
COVID-19 Impact:
The outbreak of COVID-19 negatively impacted the growth of the copper pipes and tubes market as lockdowns were imposed around the world, causing production to slow down in the initial days. Few operating plants were burdened with supply disruptions due to the unavailability of raw materials, labor shortage, and low stocks. The demand for copper pipes and tubes from the construction, automotive, and electrical industries slowed down during the initial days of the pandemic, which increased the unsold inventory levels and caused massive losses. The pandemic also threatened logistics and transportation activities due to the imposition of road restrictions and social distancing. After the upliftment of lockdowns and road restrictions, several organizations began focusing on improving their operational capacity to increase domestic production and meet the rising demand from the industries.
Copper Pipes and Tubes Market Trends:
At present, the increasing demand for copper pipes and tubes, as they offer long-term reliability and various cost-benefits, represents one of the primary factors impelling the growth of the market. In addition, the rising construction of residential, industrial, and commercial infrastructures around the world is propelling the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing installation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in various buildings to maintain good indoor air quality (IAQ) through adequate ventilation and filtration is offering a favorable market outlook. Additionally, the increasing demand for copper pipes and tubes, as they are easy to handle and offer malleability, recyclability, and non-pyrogenic properties, is contributing to the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising utilization of solar energy due to the growing environmental awareness among the masses is positively influencing the market. Moreover, the increasing popularity of waste heat recovery systems that recover thermal energy from exhaust gas and convert it into electrical energy is bolstering the growth of the market.
