Buyers Guide
Many valve directories can be found
online, but for buyers seeking valves,
actuators and controls made and
engineered in the U.S. or Canada,
there’s only one place to go—the
Valve Industry Buyers Guide at
www.ValveIndustryBuyersGuide.com.
Nearly 100 categories are included;
a simple click from the home page,
and you’ll be able to view a list of companies making the product or service
you are seeking. And for buyers looking for the high-quality manufacturers
that belong to the Valve Manufacturers Association, this online guide will
prove especially helpful. Every VMA
member is identified, along with VRC
companies, which provide OEM repair,
service, modification and testing.
Companies have the option of purchasing enhanced listings. If you think
you might qualify for a listing in the
guide and would like additional information, call 888-777-6578.
Another option for learning about
