Altech Valves - Who make them and where/how do I get in touch with them?

I've used google but all I can find is Ashworth who distribute them I rang them and they are part of the travis perkins group or something along those lines, and werent the actually manufacturer of Altech.

I'm talking about commerical valves, 4" cast iron PN16.

Anyone help me? I know there is some mechanical blokes on here too.

Altech is Grahams the plumbers merchants own brand is it not ?

 

[MarkAqua]

I thought that too and it may well be yes - I'll give them a call tomorrow. But it's just strange I cant find any information on the web.

[MarkAqua]

but why cant you buy the commercial stuff from grahams? And why do ashworths sell it? I'm confused!!

Just found online that it's something to do with Saint - Gobain............. Cheers lads.

 

[AWheating]

as with all merchants and manufacturing in general, things are made by one manufacturer and rebranded for others. Everybody thinks rothenberger makes gas torches and pipeslices is an example of this.

Saint-Gobain are the parent company of Grahams and Jewsons amongst others.
