Iran has capacity of exporting $1b worth of pipes, proàles: Official
The secretary of the Syndicate of Steel Pipe and Profile Manufacturers said that Iran’s pipe and profile industry has the capacity of exporting $1 billion worth of these products to other countries.
Amirhossein Kaveh made the remarks on Monday in an interview with IRNA, and said, “Today, the supply of steel sheets in line with the capabilities and potentials of production units of this industry promises an export capacity of $1 billion.”
Iran’s pipe and profile industry exports its products to 17 countries, but export of pipes and profiles is currently halted due to the problem of supplying raw materials needed in this industry, he emphasized.
Kaveh also pointed out that over 750,000 tons of different types of pipes and profiles were exported in the Iranian year ending on March 20, 2019.
A major portion of Iran’s pipe and profile products was exported to neighboring countries in the above-mentioned year, he added.
It is predicted that about $10 million worth of steel exports will be materialized by the end of the current Iranian year, March 20, 2021.
