In April 2009 Rotork opened an office to look after customers in New Zealand. Rotork New Zealand, a branch office of Rotork Australia, provides valve actuation markets in the country with direct access to a Rotork office for the first time in the company’s history. The new office is managed by David Croxford, a man with 27 years of Rotork experience in New Zealand. David started to work for Rotork distributor Moyes & Groves in 1982 and moved to Streat Controls when they took over the distributorship in 1996, acting as Rotork product manager with responsibility for sales throughout the country.
