BMG’s strategy to expand its fluid technology services to meet growing market demand incorporates the introduction of new products, with the latest developments in design technologies, materials and coatings. The addition of Dual Valves’ products to BMG’s portfolio, enhances the company’s solution services and broadens BMG’s customer base, providing new market and application opportunities. Dual Products International, a local manufacturer of slurry valves for over 30 years, has become one of the world’s leading producers of abrasion-resistant valves. Market share for both companies will be significantly expanded through this distribution agreement, which improves accessibility to Dual Valves’ products throughout the African continent.
“The BMG and Dual Valves’ teams, with their invaluable experience, are able to specify the correct valves needed for every application and also assist customers in solving the problems in difficult installations and applications,” explains David Dyce, BMG business unit manager, Fluid Technology.
The Dual Valves’ manufacturing facility in Gauteng is equipped with the latest equipment, including an in-house pattern maker. An ongoing research and development programme means the range of slurry valves will be continuously improved and extended, according to stringent quality standards and market requirements.
Through BMG’s broad branch and distributor network, customers now have access to the Dual Valves range. Products include dual valves, ball check valves, non-return valves, rotary disc valves, air release valves, double ball check valves and dual pinch valves. Recently launched abrasion-resistant products include pivot gate valves.
The pivot gate valve is a new rotating gate valve, designed specifically for heavy abrasive and corrosive slurries. The patented design, which allows the valve to cycle in heavy slurries without sticking, is available in three types: wafer, flanged and high pressure valves.
