Vastas

What Vastas does

Vastas is a Turkish industrial valve and actuator manufacturer founded in 1945 and headquartered in Çerkezköy, Tekirdağ. The company designs, manufactures, and services engineered valves and actuators for oil & gas, power generation, water, mining, hydrogen, and nuclear end-markets. With 250 employees and a production capacity of 12,000 tons per year, Vastas reports over 8,000 completed valve projects and 500+ pipeline projects across 75+ countries. The company is family-controlled (Ergin family) and operates from a single integrated manufacturing complex in Turkey.

The core product portfolio includes ball valves, gate valves, check valves, control valves, and actuators spanning sub-sea, pipeline, refinery, LNG/FSRU, hydrogen, and critical-service applications. Notable technical capabilities include large-format valve production (up to 56"), cryogenic service valves, and full pressure-vessel fabrication under ASME U Stamp certification — a designation that distinguishes Vastas among Turkish manufacturers. Manufacturing relies on CNC machining, welding, assembly, and in-house pressure-testing infrastructure; the technology stack is conventional heavy industrial rather than software-led.

Vastas generates revenue through project-based sales of engineered valves and actuators, supplemented by after-sales services and repair work. Go-to-market is predominantly direct to industrial end-users — oil majors, national oil companies, EPC contractors, and utilities — with regional sales partners in MENA, CIS, and Eastern Europe. Contract values are sizable, with references including multi-thousand-valve deliveries to refineries and pipeline mega-projects, implying a project-anchor revenue mix. The company is privately held, does not disclose financial results, and shows no signs of outside equity funding.

Revenue model

1. Industrial valve and actuator sales: One-time engineered sales of industrial valves (ball, gate, check, plug, globe, forged, tailor-made) and hydraulic/pneumatic actuators, typically tied to specific oil & gas, power, water, mining or hydrogen projects. Pricing is project/quote-based; high volume examples include ~2,000 valves for STAR Refinery and 1,000 valves for the KOC North Kuwait flow-line project.
2. After-sales service and field service: On-site and in-plant maintenance, repair, refurbishment, live-pipeline servicing, line-break and partial-renewal services for own-brand and multi-brand valves/actuators; 24/7 dispatch by Level 1 & 2 qualified engineers and foremen. Includes long-running maintenance contracts such as the Çan-2 Thermal Power Plant overhaul.
3. Tailor-made / engineered valve solutions: Custom design and manufacture of valves for severe service and critical applications (cryogenic, hydrogen, offshore/FSRU, high-pressure/temperature nuclear power-plant pipelines), driven by customer specifications rather than catalog items.

Core offering

Vastas designs, manufactures and services industrial valves and actuators for oil & gas, power, water, mining, hydrogen and nuclear projects. Its portfolio spans ball, gate, check, plug, globe, forged and tailor-made valves, complemented by hydraulic, pneumatic, gas-over-oil and electric actuators, pre-engineered operation solutions (ESDV, SDV, BDV, HIPPS, LBV, SSOV, MOV) and 24/7 multi-brand field and in-plant service. Products are built to API, ASME, AWWA, SIL, ATEX and NACE standards for severe-service and mission-critical applications.

Product overview

Vastas offers a multi-module industrial valve and actuator portfolio rather than a single unified product. The portfolio consists of eight core product families: Ball Valves, Gate Valves, Check Valves, Plug Valves, Globe Valves, Compact Forged Valves, Tailor Made Valves, and Actuators. These individual products are combined into pre-engineered Operation Solutions (ESDV, SDV, BDV, HIPPS, LBV, SSOV, MOV, Process Valves) targeting pipeline, refinery, RMS, storage, wellhead, power plant, and water supply applications. The product offering is complemented by a Service Solutions module that provides on-site field service, in-workshop repair and refurbishment, and actuator servicing for Vastas and other brands, available 7/24 with qualified engineers and foremen.
