Launching innovative products for customers is in our DNA

Antti Nelimarkka’s 1973 valve design allowed valves to be more reliable than ever before. He designed a metallic seat ring instead of a rubber one, and the world’s first metal-seated butterfly valve was born, setting the industry standard. Neles has since built itself around innovation and significant breakthroughs to provide our customers with more reliable and safe products – it’s in our DNA.

And there is more to come.

Service is a key benefit of the product itself

Neles butterfly valves are a trusted part of many industrial processes the world over. There are currently more than a quarter of a million butterfly valves installed around the globe. And this number only includes the valves in our installed base database. In addition to the products themselves our service expertise is often a key reason behind many clients selecting our butterfly valves.

Sustainability through long-lasting efficient performance

The sustainable performance of a butterfly valve is dependent on a number of important factors. In essence, a valve that can maintain safe and efficient performance over its extended lifecycle is inherently sustainable. This means minimizing both internal and external leakages as well as the risk of failure in demanding service.
