We've been helping people find the right valves for 15 years
Started as a valve supply operation in 2010. Today, we're still the same people with the same mission: make valve procurement less painful for engineers and plant managers who have enough to worry about.
Our Story: Building Trust Through Quality and Service
Founded in 2004, African Valve emerged from a simple yet powerful vision: to provide African industries with access to world-class valve solutions that meet the most demanding international standards. What started as a small operation with a handful of dedicated professionals has grown into one of the continent’s most trusted names in industrial valve supply and distribution.
For over 20 years, we’ve been at the forefront of industrial valve solutions, serving clients across diverse sectors including oil and gas, water treatment, chemical processing, power generation, mining, and manufacturing. Our journey has been marked by unwavering commitment to quality, technical excellence, and customer satisfaction—values that continue to drive everything we do today.

Our Core Values
The principles that guide everything we do
Honesty over sales
We'll tell you when a cheaper option works. We'll admit when we can't do something. We've lost sales being honest, and we're okay with that.
Listening before recommending
Our technical team asks questions first. We want to understand your application before suggesting valves. Annoying for us sometimes, better for you always.
Following through
If we say we'll get back to you by Thursday, we do. If we commit to a delivery date, we make it happen or tell you immediately if there's a problem. Your time matters.
Technical competence
Our team keeps learning about valve applications, industry standards, and new technologies. You shouldn't have to teach us about valves—that's our job.
Making it easier
From initial consultation through delivery, our goal is removing headaches from your plate. We handle supplier coordination, documentation, logistics—the stuff that takes time away from your real work.

Our commitment to quality is backed by international certifications and adherence to the most stringent industry standards
