Best Choice for Fluid Control

Asahi Thermoplastic valves are an exceptional choice for handling corrosive media due to their superior chemical resistance and durability. Unlike metal valves, which can corrode and degrade when exposed to harsh chemicals, our valves maintain their integrity and performance over time, making them ideal for industries where exposure to aggressive substances is common. Their non-reactive nature ensures that the valves do not contaminate the media they control, providing a safe and reliable solution for critical applications. Beyond their technical advantages, thermoplastic valves offer several key business benefits that make them a smart investment for any operation:

Cost Savings

Our valves are more cost effective, both in terms of initial purchase price and long-term maintenance costs, leading to significant savings over the lifespan of the system.

Reduced Downtime

With their high resistance to corrosion and wear, thermoplastic valves require less frequent maintenance and replacements, minimizing operational interruptions and enhancing productivity.

Improved Operational Efficiency

Thermoplastic valves are designed for easy installation and maintenance, which can streamline operations and reduce labor requirements. Their lightweight nature also makes them easier to handle, further enhancing operational efficiency.

Reduced Risk

The non-reactive nature of thermoplastic materials ensures that they do not leach contaminants into the media they control. This is particularly important in industries like pharmaceuticals, where purity is critical.

Applications

Asahi valves are the equipment of choice for applications involving corrosive environments, owing to our extensive application know-how gained from over six decades of international experience in solving complex challenges.

Asahi Valves are suitable
for a variety of applications:

Mining
Chemical Industry
Steel Industry
Desalination Plants
Water Treatment
The mining industry handles extremely corrosive chemicals and Asahi Africa ensures the efficient and safe movement of these crucial materials. We recognize that operational safety and reliability are paramount and our products guarantee exceptional performance and durability, even in the most corrosive conditions.
Our application specialists are very familiar with the critical processes within the chemical industry. They are able to assess the available process data and can analyse and specify the exact materials that fit your application perfectly.
Asahi Africa keeps the hottest media flowing. We know, that operational safety is of high significance in hot environments. Our intelligent products promise absolute safety in corrosive applications.
The desalination of water for the extraction of drinking or service water is based on various processes in which we specialize. Our application specialists can demonstrate how we have developed application-specific product solutions for desalination.
In water treatment we ensure the seamless flow of critical processes. We understand that the longevity and reliability of equipment are paramount. Our innovative products guarantee exceptional durability in highly corrosive environments, meeting the rigorous demands of water treatment applications.

Thermoplastic Advantages

Asahi valves are made from plastic materials such as unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (U-PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), providing numerous benefits such as superior corrosion and chemical resistance when compared to metal valves.

Corrosion Resistant

Our diverse range of plastic materials for our valves provides excellent resistance to corrosion and chemicals

Lightweight

ASAHI valves are much lighter when compared with typical metal valves being between 20% - 25% lighter

Low Maintenance

Due to their resistance to corrosion and scaling our valves require minimal maintenance

Long Lifespan

Our valves are designed for longevity, with excellent resistance to wear ensuring a long service life

Mechanically Strong

Despite their lightweight nature, thermoplastic valves are engineered to be mechanically robust and can withstand high pressures and mechanical stresses.

Theft-Resistant

Thermoplastic valves have little to no scrap value and are less attractive to thieves.
