Actuation Valve Expands: New Unit to Enhance Operations
Key Benefits of Our Expansion:
At Actuation Valve, we have always focused on providing high-quality valve and actuation solutions with fast and reliable service. To further enhance our efficiency and meet growing customer demand, we have recently acquired a new unit located just down the road from our current facility. This expansion marks an important milestone in our growth, allowing us to strengthen our stock availability, operations, and overall customer experience.
Greater Stock Availability for Faster Order Fulfilment
One of the biggest advantages of our new unit is the increase in storage capacity. By holding more stock on-site, we can reduce lead times and offer faster delivery on a wider range of products. This ensures that customers have access to TTV Butterfly Valves,?V-Tork Actuators, Samson Globe Valves, Ari Armaturen Steam Valves, and TopWorx Switchboxes without delays. The ability to store more inventory also allows us to support larger and more urgent orders while maintaining the high service levels our customers expect.
Streamlined Operations for Improved Efficiency
The additional space allows us to improve our operational workflow, making order processing, assembly, and testing more efficient. With a dedicated area for actuator assembly,?valve modifications, and testing, we can handle complex projects more effectively while maintaining strict quality control. This ensures that every product leaving our facility meets our high standards.
Strengthening Our Market Position
Expanding into a new unit is more than just increasing storage space—it is a strategic move to future-proof our business. By investing in infrastructure, we are reinforcing our position as a leading provider of valve automation solutions in the UK. The new facility allows us to respond to industry demands quickly, offer greater flexibility in product availability, and continue delivering the same-day dispatch service that sets us apart.
Strengthening Our Operations
We want to reassure our customers and partners that while this expansion is an exciting step forward, we are not moving premises—our main facility remains fully operational. The acquisition of this additional unit, located just down the road, is a strategic move to enhance our stock availability, workflow efficiency, and overall service capabilities. By increasing our storage capacity, we can hold a wider range of products on-site, ensuring faster order fulfilment, reduced lead times, and even greater flexibility when responding to urgent requirements.
This expansion also allows us to optimise our production and testing areas, creating a more streamlined process for valve automation, modifications, and assembly, all while maintaining the same high standards we’re known for. Our existing facility will continue to operate as the central hub for daily operations, with the new unit serving as an extension to support increased demand and ensure we remain at the forefront of the industry. This move is about future-proofing our business, enhancing efficiency, and ultimately improving the service we provide to our customers—without any disruption to our current operations.
Don't worry... we're not moving!
While this expansion is a significant step forward for Actuation Valve, it’s important to clarify that we are not relocating—our existing facility remains fully operational. The acquisition of this new unit is purely to enhance our capabilities, not replace them. By securing additional space just down the road, we can significantly increase stock availability, streamline operations, and improve efficiency without disrupting our current setup.
This means our customers will continue to receive the same high level of service from our main location, with the added benefit of faster turnaround times and increased product availability. The new unit will primarily be used to support our growing stock levels, accommodate larger orders, and create a more efficient workflow for assembly, modifications, and testing. This expansion ensures we remain well-positioned to handle future growth while maintaining the high standards that our customers expect. So while we’re growing, we’re not going anywhere—just improving what we already do best.
Looking Ahead
This expansion represents our ongoing commitment to growth, innovation, and customer satisfaction. The additional capacity will enable us to support more industries, take on larger projects, and continue providing the high-quality service our customers rely on.
With this new investment, Actuation Valve is better equipped than ever to meet the evolving needs of the industry. If you require fast, reliable valve and?actuation solutions, our expanded capabilities ensure we can deliver. Get in touch today to find out how we can support your requirements.
