Raw materials for pressure-containing parts are mainly sourced from European countries. Where necessary, PEEK as seat material and Duplex as ball material are provided.

Stems are generally made in XM-19, an austenitic stainless steel grade, which has a greater corrosion resistance and higher yield strength than 316 stainless steel. All other trim materials and all non-wetted parts are provided in 316 stainless steel. For valves in special alloys, all wetted parts are made of the special alloy material.
