COMPANY PROFILE AVM International Ltd. AS

The company was formed in 1988 selling valves to the Scandinavian market. As from 1993, AVM International Ltd.

COMPANY PROFILE   AVM Valves AS

Company activities: Sales, design, development and production of our own, wide range of quality valves for water works purpose, sewage, irrigation, hydro-electric power plants and partly industry (rubberlined butterfly valves, strainers etc.).

The marketing was earlier done through AVM International Ltd. A/S, but we wanted to continue the sales of our own valves through a separate company responsible for the production, design, QA etc. (see separate Company Profile for AVM International Ltd. A/S). We have a separate division in Izmir, Turkey doing our design drawings and this division is also acting as our after sales service office.  We can also offer to fit electric or pneumatic actuators in our workshop in Izmir, or at the sites, do valve testing etc.

We are selling our valves among others through distributors and agents in UK, France, Spain, Italy, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Turkey, Russia, Middle East countries, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong etc., and via contractors, water treatment companies, pump manufacturers, suppliers of turnkey projects for hydro-electric power plants, etc. in Europe, Turkey, Middle East, South Africa etc. for final destinations to many countries worldwide.

Even several well-known, reputable valve producers in Europe and Middle East are purchasing AVM’s valves and putting their own brand marks on our valves and reselling same, as we have gained a wide reputation for a high quality. This is done by our valve producer clients among others in UK, Spain, Italy and Middle East.


BEST VALUE FOR PRICE: Our philosophy is to offer the best possible products at reasonable (competitive) prices, and in a transparent way whereby we also invite our clients to visit our 2 main factories etc. Our transparency guarantees you where the actual products are being produced, which is contrary to most of our other European competitors at present, as they tend to subcontract a large part of their products. 

Our experienced sales team, and technical team, have a long experience working with valves, and we know that we can render old and new clients a very good service.
