Tecnomatic and Puma Plastics Solutions together in the Usa

The Italian manufacturer of extrusion lines and extrusion heads Tecnomatic and the US company Puma Plastics Solutions (Texas), part of JDC Manufacturing, enter into a business partnership to pursue a common goal in the US market. This marks Tecnomatic official entrance into the world of extrusion in the American market, which is considered one of the most important in the world.

Puma Plastics Solutions will provide manufacturing solutions from Tecnomatic to the US market. The scope is to make available to all pipe producers in the Usa the Tecnomatic production with the exclusive support of a proven structure and US-based company. With intense focus on customer service, Puma Plastics Solutions will be with the pipe producers in every step of their way, from consultation and installation to maintenance and troubleshooting.

One of the initial steps to the market will be the participation at the NPE exhibition (Orlando, March 23-27). In this occasion, customers will have the opportunity to enter in touch with the two partners and to check latest innovation in extrusion as the extruder Zephyr 90 (L/D=40) for pipes production with a capacity up to 1,700kg/h and the head Venus 400 with Pipe Air Cooling system, which will be on show.

The US pipe market demand for pipes and pipelines is expected to grow by about 7% per annum to exceed 63 billion dollars in 2018. The increase in demand will be driven primarily by applications in the areas of gas natural and crude oil. The application will also be supported by a recovery in investment in the construction market and in particular for building renovations.
