Stafsjö is a well known name amongst major players within paper and pulp, mining, power generation and water treatment. Over 1 million Stafsjö valves have been installed around the world and 86% of the production is exported. Growth markets are USA, Australia and South East Asia, the latter primarily driven by Indonesia. An mining initiative in Mexico was successful.
Established in 1666, Stafsjö is one of the oldest operating company in Sweden. Production commenced with the manufacture of cannons for the Swedish armed forces and remained the core business activity for two centuries. In 1881, the production of valves started and in 1928 the first knife gate valve was launched for the paper and pulp industry in the region.
Since 2005 Stafsjö has been owned by Ebro Armaturen Gebr. Bröer GmbH headquartered in Hagen, Germany, and a specialist in production and development of butterfly valves.
