Our promise

Standard where it fits.
Custom where it counts.

Much of what leaves Andilly is adapted to applications customers cannot cover with off-the-shelf components. We serve three particularly demanding areas.

  • Harsh environments

    Extreme pressures and temperatures

    From −270 °C to +200 °C and up to 1,100 bar, with materials, seats and seals selected for actual operating conditions.

  • Critical applications

    Where failure is unacceptable

    Naval defence, test benches and hydrogen applications need components that hold their setpoint cycle after cycle.

  • Regulated markets

    Nuclear, oxygen and ATEX

    We prepare and maintain qualification files, traceability records and third-party test documentation with you.

Services

What we do
beyond components.

  1. Engineering

    We assess pressure, temperature and fluid, then recommend materials and a configuration, from a standard component to a custom assembly.

  2. Manufacturing

    We design, machine, assemble and test in our 1,750 m² factory in Andilly. A custom design can come from the same supplier.

  3. Stock & logistics

    We keep a wide range of valves, actuators and accessories in stock and work with logistics partners on every continent.

  4. Testing

    Actuated and manifold assemblies are function-tested in our workshop. The test report accompanies the order.

  5. Support & audits

    We carry out on-site audits to identify energy losses and likely failures, and provide support long after installation.

The factory

Designed and made in
Andilly since 1964.

Design, machining, assembly and testing under one roof: 1,750 m² in Andilly, 20 km from Paris.

Engineering and production work side by side from drawing to test report. Each component is marked, traceable to its configuration and helium-tested before leaving the factory.
