To demonstrate our promised value, we invited our customers to experience both the product and workflow up-front. The largest butterfly valve to date is now successfully installed at the Thu Duc water treatment plant.
Experiencing our value first-hand
Scott Cook, director of eBay, once said: “A brand is no longer what we tell the consumer it is – it is what consumers tell each other it is." So, how can we at AVK present our brand and our strengths? One effective approach is to let our customers experience it first-hand.
A unique invitation
To bring this vision to life, we at AVK Vietnam invited representatives from the Thu Duc water treatment plant (a member of Saigon Water Cooperation, SAWACO), to visit the largest factory within the AVK Group: The AVK Valves manufacturing unit in Anhui, China.
The visit featured a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) on the DN2400 butterfly flanged valve and an immersive factory tour.
Delivering the market’s largest butterfly valve
The DN2400 valve, which is the largest size AVK has ever supplied to the Vietnam market, is now installed as part of a comprehensive solution for the new construction of storage tank No. 5 at the Thu Duc water treatment plant.
This solution was tailored to meet the customer’s requirements for quality, reliability, technical specifications, and compatibility with the existing installation space. As one of the largest valve sizes ever supplied for SAWACO, the project owner imposed strict standards for its installation and performance.
AVK Vietnam’s Sales and Technical team collaborated closely with the consultant, the contractor, and SAWACO to ensure that every aspect of the valve met strict durability and efficiency standards. This installation not only reflects AVK’s commitment to excellence but also strengthens our position as a trusted partner in delivering innovative solutions to complex infrastructure projects.
At AVK Vietnam Co. Ltd., we always pay close attention to our clients' needs and demonstrate our commitment to supporting projects with the highest quality products and services.
