Their expertise in high-performance plastic piping, valves, and automation solutions has made them a trusted partner for critical operations across water treatment, chemical processing, energy production, and countless other industrial sectors.

GF's enduring success is rooted in a commitment to sustainability, innovation, and unwavering quality. Every valve they produce is designed for exceptional accuracy, simplified maintenance, and seamless integration, ensuring system integrity and long service life even in demanding high-pressure and high-temperature environments.


The Comprehensive Georg Fischer Valve Range

Georg Fischer valves are engineered to efficiently control, regulate, and isolate fluid flow. The core product line features a broad selection of essential valve types, each offered in a versatile range of materials—including PVC-U, PVC-C, ABS, PP-H, and PVDF—to guarantee consistent performance when handling both aggressive corrosive media and ultra-pure clean media.

 

Georg Fischer Ball Valves: Reliable Shut-Off

GF's ball valves are among the most popular and dependable options for industrial systems. They are designed for tight shut-off and minimal pressure loss, providing smooth operation and extended service life.

Type 375 Ball Valve: A compact, manually operated valve ideal for low-pressure lines. It features a PVC-U or PVC-C body and PTFE seats for excellent corrosion resistance.

Type 542 Ball Valve: A versatile, low-torque option that offers precise control. It is suitable for chemical and water treatment applications, available in materials like PVC-U, PP-H, and PE.

Type 543 Ball Valve: Specifically designed for fine metering and proportional control, this model provides exceptional flow accuracy and includes lockable handles for enhanced operational safety.

 

Georg Fischer Butterfly Valves: Efficiency for Large Flows

For larger pipelines that require efficient on/off control with a low-pressure drop, GF butterfly valves are the superior choice. They are lightweight, easy to install, and built for long-term performance in both manual and automated configurations.

Crafted from high-grade plastics like PVC-U, PP-H, and PVDF, these valves are engineered to handle aggressive media. The use of materials like EPDM and FKM for the disc and liner ensures excellent chemical compatibility and tight, reliable sealing. Their robust design is perfect for wastewater treatment, marine, and general chemical processing.

 

Georg Fischer Diaphragm Valves: Precision for Corrosive Media

When precision flow control of abrasive or highly corrosive media is non-negotiable, GF diaphragm valves provide a leak-proof and contamination-free solution. Their design delivers linear flow control, making them ideal for sensitive systems where product integrity is paramount.

Constructed from advanced materials such as PVC-U, PP, and PVDF, they offer outstanding corrosion resistance and simple, compact construction for low maintenance. Both manual and pneumatic actuation options provide flexibility for various installations.

 

Georg Fischer Check Valves: System Protection

Also known as non-return valves, GF check valves are crucial for preventing backflow in pipelines, which safeguards sensitive equipment and pumps. Available in spring-loaded, swing, and ball-type mechanisms, they ensure smooth operation and minimal pressure loss across all flow conditions. Built from robust materials like PVC-U, PP-H, and PVDF, they provide reliable protection against system contamination in both industrial and hygienic environments.


Why Engineers Choose Georg Fischer

Georg Fischer valves are the top choice for modern process systems due to their modular designs, advanced material options, and full compatibility with various actuation and control accessories. The company’s foundation of engineering excellence and its global support network ensure that GF continues to define the highest standards for industrial valve technology.
