THE STANDARD IN
NON-STANDARD VALVES
The design of a valve is the result of the wishes and requirements of the customer. These are often so diverse and unique that a standard valve is not the solution. In that case our engineers get to work to develop the valve that will meet your wishes.
Design work is implemented using 3-D CAD and our computer software then initiates the manufacturing process in our factory workshops. Milling, turning and drilling operations then produce the valves to your exact specification. Our production technique, manufacturing from bar material, inevitably results in significant material and labour costs. Nevertheless, we can offer “oneoff” valves at competitive prices and short lead time.
We manufacture valves to withstand very low (-196°C) to very high (+950°C) temperature conditions and very low (vacuum) to very high (4500 lbs) pressure duties. We manufacture valves to meet these very precise standards and provide the necessary testing and verification certifications. In addition, as well as producing single “one-off” specification valves, we can also offer very competitive pricing on larger quantities for project requirements up to 1000 pieces. This has been our core business over the past 75 years, during which time we have designed and manufactured more than 30,000 different valve products. For every application there is an optimal valve solution. We manufacture to your specific requirements each type of valve. We actively engage in continuous development, and as such, our valve range expands every month. Our people love to develop and manufacture non-existent solutions.
