Valves for Glass, Ceramics & Refractory Industries — Melbourne
Melbourne is Australia's second-largest industrial valve market — Esso/ExxonMobil's Longford gas plant (Victoria's primary gas supply, sourcing API 6D gate valves and check valves), the Altona Chemical Precinct (Qenos, Momentive, Huntsman), South East Water and Melbourne Water utilities, and a dense cluster of pharmaceutical, food processing, and mining equipment manufacturers collectively source butterfly valves, ball valves, gate valves, check valves, globe valves, safety/relief valves, and strainers from international suppliers; buyers typically specify AS 4041 (Australian pressure piping), ASME B16.34, and API 6D standards.
Knife gate and pinch valves for ceramic slip and slurry, high-temperature butterfly valves for combustion air/gas in glass furnaces, and IBR gate valves for kiln cogeneration steam.
