Metso has signed a distribution agreement for its valve products with Process Control Equipment, PCE, to cover UK, Benelux and Spain. Under the non-exclusive agreement, PCE will add to its current portfolio of Metso’s Neles and Jamesbury product families for all process industries in all countries. PCE has been distributing Metso’s Jamesbury valves in the UK since 2012.
Development of the distribution channel is one of the most important strategic growth initiatives in many key markets for Metso’s Flow Control business. Metso has a strong direct sales organization and an extensive service network globally to serve its flow control customers. The target for distribution development is to strengthen Metso’s presence in the traditional core areas and to open new markets. In North America, Metso’s Flow Control business already has a well-established distribution network serving the process industries.
