Question 3

Do you offer OEM valve manufacturing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In addition to our own KR brand, we provide OEM services, including customer branding, specified body and seat materials, actuation options and project-specific packaging.

Question 4

Should I choose a wafer or a lug butterfly valve?

Accepted Answer

Wafer butterfly valves are lighter and more economical and are clamped between two flanges, making them ideal for standard water and HVAC lines. Lug butterfly valves have threaded lugs that allow dead-end service and removal of downstream piping without draining the whole line, which suits maintenance-critical systems.

Question 5

How is valve quality controlled before shipment?

Accepted Answer

Every process is inspected from raw material to finished product, and 100% of finished valves are inspected before dispatch. Production plans and lead times are defined upfront through full-chain supply control.
