Product Overview
ORBINOX is present in more than 70 countries with over 50 years of experience designing, manufacturing and marketing knife gate valves, penstocks, dampers, and valves for hydraulic works.
ORBINOX was founded in Tolosa in 1964, manufacturing industrial valves to fulfill the increasing demand of the local paper industry.
In 1987, in order to satisfy the demand of new markets ORBINOX relocated to a new factory in Anoeta and introduced special products such as dampers and valves for hydraulic works.
In the late 90’s ORBINOX decided to focus on improving standard valves as core business.
In the early 2000's began a period of change and expansion. Organized into two business units (Knife gate valves and Special products), ORBINOX established manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries in Canada and USA, United Kingdom, India, Spain, France, China and Germany.
In 2007, as result of an organizational restructuring within the Group, ORBINOX VALVES INTERNATIONAL was established.
In the late 2000’s ORBINOX Brazil and South East Asia were established and a majority shareholding of DAMPER TECHNOLOGY Ltd in the UK acquired.
In 2011, ORBINOX became a member of the AVK Group.
In 2015, a new distribution center in Chile was established.
