Innovative  safety valves since 1958

For nearly 60 years now, our company has been developing and manufacturing pneumatic and hydraulic equipment and supplying safety shut-off valves – in some cases mass produced ones – to plant and equipment manufacturers in the energy industry the world over.

The innovation of safety valves for the chemical and power generating industries had already become the hallmark of our product range as early as the 1960s.

Over the years, substantial enhancements to new valves previously unknown on the market as well as compact design configurations have made albrecht-automatik into one of the leading companies in this field.
