Pipe Making Business Earns the Utmost Money in 2019

One of the driving forces in starting up a business is profitability. This is in turn dependent on some key factors such as an increase in the demand of the product and ready market. This is so for the pipe making business. With the increasing global demand for more efficient drainage systems, medium of mineral transportation and water, the pipe making business stands to earn utmost this year.

The use of PVC pipes in industrial activities and households as electrical conduits has been widely accepted.

Now, the onus lies on those pipe production industry to step on their production speed to meet up this growing global demand. How can this be achieved? One way to do this is through the introduction of more efficient plastic pipe making machines, particularly for those large-scale industries.

PVC pipe manufacturing is a business that could be started on a small or medium scale. Let’s look at some of the essential factors to be considered when starting up a pipe making business thus;

Pipe Manufacturing – Market Potential

The market for PVC pipes is growing at a relatively good rate. This is because of the government interest and spending on infrastructure. PVC pipes are used over a wide range of purposes such as spray irrigation, land drainage schemes, water supply schemes, and deep tube well schemes. The agricultural and construction sector has shown a high probability to boost the demand for PVC pipes in the future. The PVC corrugated and slotted pipes are excellent systems that could be used to drain water from waterlogged lands and areas. With the rural areas in consideration, rural water supplies, irrigation facilities, rapid growth in the construction industry and rural electrification increases the demand for PVC pipes

Raw Materials Needed For Pipe Manufacturing

The next is to consider the raw materials that would be used in the manufacturing process. The major raw materials needed for the manufacturing of PVC include DOP, PVC resin, lubricants, processing acids, fillers, electricity, water, stabilizers. and colors.

Pipe Manufacturing Business Registration and License

The first step in starting a PVC pipe manufacturing business is to register the business with ROC. Trade license should be obtained from municipal authority. Also, it is important to get a license according to the regulations of the state, acquire a VAT registration and apply for an MSME online registration.

It is important to have a current bank account with a nationalized bank. After this step, the next thing is to ensure adequate state protection for your brand by giving it a trademark registration. It is also advisable to apply for ISO certificate.
