2025: Plan to introduce mandatory digital marking of polymer pipes in Russia
Mandatory labeling of polymer pipe products in Russia will be launched from March 1, 2026, until the end of August 2025 it is carried out as an experiment. This is stated in May 2025 in the message "Polyplastic" with reference to the director of the department of the system of digital labeling of goods and legalization of the turnover of products of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Vladislav Zaslavsky. According to him, the labeling system includes 25 product groups, an experiment on the development of the mechanism is carried out in several groups of industrial goods.[1]
2024: Digital labeling of pipes using neural networks has been launched in Russia. TMK started using it
At the end of November 2024, it became known that the Pipe Metallurgical Company (TMK) has developed and implemented pipe labeling technology using QR codes, which are read using a neural network algorithm even if there is damage. The first batch of products with the new marking was shipped from the Volga Pipe Plant.
Standard factory markers are used to apply codes, and to read information, the company has developed a special application with a neural network algorithm for recovering damaged codes.
General Director of TMK-Premium Service Sergey Rekin said that the new technology allows you to identify each pipe, track its life cycle and plan service operations for the effective use of stocks.
The software is installed on smartphones or computers and allows you to view the full product passport, including quality certificates. The system operates offline without a network connection, which is important for field use.
The first batch of QR-coded casing with TMK UP PF threaded joints was issued at the Volga Pipe Plant. The company plans to expand the technology to other businesses.
Digital labeling provides comprehensive service support for products at all stages - from transportation and installation in the well to maintenance and decommissioning. QR codes show greater durability compared to traditional alphanumeric labeling.
The labeling application is synchronized with existing inventory management systems to optimize process operations directly in the fields by assessing material requirements to individual pipe levels.[2]
