Strahman Valves of the US has expanded its product line and increased its presence in Europe with the acquisition of MG Process Valves. Both companies market a range of valves for the pharmaceutical and other process industries.

MG Process Valves will be renamed Strahman MG and will continue to operate from its main facility located in Mery, France.

In addition to expanded geographic coverage, the acquisition provides Strahman with the capability to supply a broader range of fabricated and cast valves, including soft-seated and metal-seated ram-type drain valves, piston-type sampling valves, multi-way diverter valves, spray rinse tank valves, rotating and sliding line blinds, and sanitary and biotech valves.

 

Furthermore, the merger gives Strahman a vehicle for expanding sales of its line of wash down equipment primarily used by the pharmaceutical, chemical and food and beverage industries, into international markets.
