ALLMECH – SOLE AUTHORISED AGENT FOR RUNXIN VALVES IN SOUTH AFRICA
Allmech, leading South African manufacturer of boilers and supplier of water treatment components, is the sole official agent for Runxin water treatment system valves in the country.
Lionel Maasdorp, General Manager at Allmech, says the company has been South Africa’s only authorised agent for Runxin for 11 years. “The valves are produced by Wenzhou Runxin Manufacturing Machine Co, a global company founded in 2000, based in China, which distributes its products into 117 countries around the world,” he says. “We partner with Runxin because we’ve found their valves to be reliable, easily available and user-friendly. They are also easy to service and have proven to be more chemical resistant and robust than other brands on the market. Furthermore, they are a cost-effective option.”
Maasdorp says Runxin has collected various valve models that have been in service for 10 years or more, which are on display at their manufacturing plant. Similarly, Allmech has a softener valve displayed that was in use for a full 10 years without a single service, and still functioning perfectly.
Allmech, which is headquartered in Johannesburg and has an office in Pinetown (KwaZulu-Natal) and distributors in the Western Cape and Free State, supplies Runxin control valves to both domestic and industrial water treatment clientele throughout the country, as well as in neighbouring states. Allmech stocks Runxin manual and automatic valves with a range of flow rates, as well as the Runxin ceramic ball range. Its water treatment division also supplies chemicals, reverse osmosis and demineralisation plants, softeners and filters.
“We have a test bench and host training sessions regularly, and pride ourselves in our technical support and spares supply capabilities,” says Maasdorp. “We really work hard to provide an end-to-end solution for our water treatment clients, whether they are business owners, engineers or downstream distributors. They know they can come to us for expertise on which valve to use for a specific application, for repairs and maintenance, and for other technical input.”
Allmech supplies Runxin valves with flow rates ranging from 4 500 l/hr, such as the F56A1 manual filter valve and the F63B/C automatic filters, right through to 30 000 l/hr F112A softener and F112B filter valves.
Paul Van Der Walt, sales and procurement manager of East Midlands Water Company SA, a leading supplier of water filtration products, says that the range of Runxin valves supplied by Allmech are a perfect fit for their application in whole house water filtering systems. “The valves perform as required, they are of good quality and the support and technical advice from Allmech is much appreciated. Allmech has always provided excellent service to us and in receiving great service, our customers also receive great service.”
