Válvulas Arco
With business figures that place it as the sector leader in the domestic market and within the top 10 of the international rankings, this family-owned company headquartered in Valencia is Spain’s only valve manufacturer. Present in more than 80 countries, ARCO is one of the Spanish firms with the greatest international reach.
Under the motto “quality is manufactured,” ARCO applies the concept of Total Quality as a differentiating value for the firm and a core principle of its business management. ARCO invests nearly half a million euros each year in innovation and exercises comprehensive control over the manufacturing process in order to offer reliable, innovative, ecological, and sustainable solutions with the highest quality and safety standards.
In the 1980s, ARCO’s founder and chairman, José Mª Ferrer, patented and brought to market the famous A-80 valve — the first quarter-turn angle valve. With more than 300 million units sold worldwide, this valve represented a true revolution in both the domestic and international markets.
Since then, ARCO has continued to introduce major innovations every year, establishing itself as the most innovative company in its sector, with 200 patents, 50 utility models, and more than 3,000 product references.
ARCO has a workforce of more than 400 people and two production facilities located in Valencia and Tunisia, with a combined production capacity of more than 33 million valves per year. The company currently exports 70% of its output.
