PROFILE |
 |
Valve automation may sound pretty high-tech, but for Rotork, it's basic business. The UK-based holding company's subsidiaries make electronic, pneumatic, and hydraulic actuators that operate valves to control the flow of liquid streams. Rotork's actuators can be found in offshore oil rigs, oil and gas pipelines, water- and wastewater-treatment plants, power plants, tank farms, pulp and paper facilities -- anywhere medium and large valves and dampers are used. The company also makes a wide range of electronic instruments for use throughout process-control industries. With manufacturing plants and service centers spanning the globe, the company sells its products worldwide.
