Safety EnhancEments

We understand our customers demand performance, safety, and reliability from our lines of quality products. With Plattco Double Flap Airlock® Valves being designed to operate for decades, we know that during the course of their operational life, environmental, regulatory, and plant requirements may change. We strive to offer a variety of improvements, many of which can be retro-fitted to existing installations.

Plattco's in-house engineering team is continually evaluating and improving our current product designs by utilizing field data, customer surveys, QA inspections, consultants, suppliers, and real-time feedback from customers to enhance not only the performance of the valves but the safety of them as well.
