the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also

Consolidating Pipeline

Relatively recent changes in technology in the production process
have involved improvements to welding resulting in better joins and
in-line galvanizing. However, this highly volatile and declining
industry has been rationalizing as a response to having difficulty
meeting the high import competition. This consolidation will continue,
further increasing the already high barriers, and keeping strict
regulations somewhat manageable.
