Mission
The Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Group seeks at all times to optimize added value for all its stakeholders. We aim to achieve this by careful expansion of our leading position as an industrial distributor of steel pipes, pipe components and  valves. We are specialists and focus on specific market segments, which help create added value for our stakeholders.We stand out thanks to our customer-oriented business approach and the high quality of our products and services. It is guided at all times by an ethical and socially responsible policy with regard to our employees and the working environment.  

Strategy
We are continuously working to strengthen our leading position. We do so via a process of directed growth and the provision of enhanced services. Growth can occur autonomously or through acquisitions, especially in existing market segments. Central to this strategy is a determination to guarantee customers the maximum level of service, and to provide them, at an international level, with as complete a product and service package as possible. We also base our strategy on a combination of international activities, a regional organizational structure and the service and experience of local specialists. This makes Van Leeuwen a powerful partner with cross-border knowledge and experience.

History
The Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Group was founded by Mr. P. van Leeuwen in 1924 in Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands. Expansion abroad started with the foundation of a subsidiary in Vilvoorde, in Belgium, in 1947. After 1950 Van Leeuwen grew its European network by setting up branches in France, the UK and Germany. In the 70s and 80s the company spread its wings to North America, Asia and Australia. This was later followed by expansion into the Middle East and, more recently, China and Central Europe.  The Van Leeuwen Pipe and Tube Group has grown to its present size through organic growth and strategic acquisitions and today has dozens of sites in many countries spread over four continents.
