JC Valves is constantly investing in innovation and products as an engine for growth and leadership in the valve industry. Its latest development is the manufacture and supply of valves for special applications, mainly in the food and pharmaceutical industry. For that, the company has invested in a new FDA & EC-1935/2004 compliant clean room with a controlled atmosphere for the specific treatment of these valves. The room is equipped for cleaning, testing and monitoring of the valves in an environment free from impurities and a special production area for valves with very strict requirements for the above-mentioned sectors. The valves meet food approvals: EU 10/2011 and F.D.A. 21 CFR Ch.I (Edition 4-1-12) §177.2600, section E and F.
A further step to meet the demanding needs of the market is that, to facilitate inventory management and avoid errors in the supply of ex-stock valves, JC has been manufacturing all ASME/API ball valves in accordance with NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 as a standard feature for more than 20 years.
