By virtue of its vast manufacturing industry, China has become a real "world factory". China enjoys this great reputation while at the same time, is a country working to solve a lot of problems and achieve the dream to become the "manufacturing power country”. On the microcosm, China’s plastic pipe industry still has a very long way to achieve all of their aims. In recent years, China’s plastic pipe industry keeps increasing by improving the development model, industrial structure, quality level, comprehensive competitiveness and so on. The country has become the largest production and application country for plastic pipe. Nowadays, China strives to be the “Strongest” instead of the “Largest”. Meanwhile, there are also some barriers to resolve. The two breakthroughs -- technological progress and quality improvement — should be grasped firmly. This paper analyzes the current situation and barriers, as well as propose breakthroughs to achieve the sustainable, stable and healthy development of China’s plastic pipe industry, such as technical progress to drive innovation, quality improvement to promote upgrades in the industry.
