""Properties of copper such as excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and machinability enable application of pipes across various end-use markets such as plumbing, air conditioning & refrigeration, and other industrial applications. Though copper is one of the ideal materials for plumbing applications, rapid increase in price has led to substitution by competing materials, mainly steel and various plastic pipes. However,

the metal´s inherent strengths such as corrosion resistance and durability, and high thermal efficiency are expected to drive recovery in the coming years. Additionally, the bactericidal property of copper is gaining importance worldwide, which is also expected to drive demand in the global copper pipes and tubes market.
