Swissfluid

What Swissfluid does

Swissfluid AG is a privately held Swiss industrial manufacturer founded in 2002 and headquartered in Lenzburg, Canton Argovia, operating from an integrated facility of more than 5,000 m² covering manufacturing, assembly, testing, inventory, and administration. The company specializes in development and production of fully lined process valves (butterfly, ball, diaphragm, cylindrical plug, check, sight glass) and sampling systems for highly corrosive, abrasive, and toxic media, using high-performance fluoropolymers such as PFA, PFA-AS (anti-static), PTFE, PTFE-T, PVDF, ETFE, and polypropylene applied through proprietary metal-to-fluoropolymer lining and encapsulation processes with mechanical locking for vacuum service. Differentiated engineering features include two-piece split-body metal-to-metal joints for bubble-tight shut-off, blowout-proof one-piece cylinder/stem assemblies with external predetermined breaking points, dynamic maintenance-free shaft sealing compliant with TA-Luft (VDI 2440) and DIN EN ISO 15848-1, and cavity-free architectures for representative sampling across a 1 mbar to 50 bar pressure range and -40°C to +280°C/+300°C temperature envelope.

The business model is B2B capital-equipment sales of one-time, project-based customized valves priced on size, material specification, pressure/temperature rating, and customization level, with pneumatic actuators offered as add-on automation. Distribution runs through direct technical sales from the Swiss headquarters complemented by wholly-owned subsidiaries in Stafford, Texas (USA) and Shanghai (China), with no independent distributor channel. Target verticals are chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical/biotechnology, semiconductor, pulp & paper, mining, and power generation, anchored by a comprehensive certification stack (ISO 9001:2015, PED 2014/68/EU, TA-Luft, ATEX 95, FDA, EAC TP TC 032/2013). Customer acquisition is event-led, centered on ACHEMA and similar trade fairs and direct engineering consultation; revenue concentration metrics are not disclosed.

Revenue model

1. Industrial Valve Sales: Swissfluid generates revenue primarily through the manufacture and sale of fully lined process valves (butterfly, ball, diaphragm, cylindrical plug, check, and sight glasses) and sampling systems. Products are sold as capital equipment with pricing based on size, material specification, and customization level. The company also offers pneumatic actuators as add-on components for valve automation. Revenue is one-time project-based, driven by capital expenditure cycles in target industries.

Core offering

Swissfluid AG designs, manufactures, and globally markets fully lined process valves (butterfly, ball, diaphragm, cylindrical plug, check, and sight glasses) and sampling systems using high-performance fluoropolymers. The products are engineered for handling highly corrosive, abrasive, and toxic media in chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, pulp and paper, mining, and power generation process industries, complemented by pneumatic actuators for automated operation.

Product overview

Swissfluid AG is a Swiss manufacturer of specialized lined valves and sampling systems for highly corrosive and abrasive applications. The product portfolio centers on two main categories: Process Valves (including Butterfly Valves SBE and SBP, Ball Valves SBV and SBV Class 300, Diaphragm Valves SDV, Cylindrical Plug Valves SCP, Ball Check Valves SBC, Swing Check Valves SSC, and Sight Glasses SSP, SST, SSP-T, SST-T) with配套的 Pneumatic Actuators (SPA-R and SPA-L); and Sampling Systems (including Inline Sampling Valves SIV, Sampling Ball Valves SSB, Combined Sampling Systems SSO-C, Sampling Stations SSO-S, Sampling Panels SSO-P, and Reactor Sampling Systems SRS in manual SRS-P, ejector SRS-P-E, and automated SRS-P-P variants). Products feature fluoropolymer linings (PFA, PTFE, PVDF) and are certified to ISO 9001:2015 and PED 2014/68/EU for chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, and related industries. Customized linings and moulded parts are also offered.
