Westad Industri AS

Westad Industri AS is a Norwegian manufacturer of butterfly and ball valves for marine, offshore and petrochemical applications. Westad has been manufac- turing valves since 1895, with a concen- tration on the shipbuilding market.

The production range, as well as the selection of materials and design of the valves, has been made with special con- sideration for extended service in corro- sive media and extreme operating con- ditions. Most Westad valves have been high-performance butterfly valves, for installation in chemical applications and cryogenic temperature conditions re- quired for LPG and LNG use.

Westad is also a pioneer in the devel- opment of butterfly valves of compos- ite material. The polyurethane compo- sition used for the valve body and the disc is reinforced with continuous car- bon fibers. To obtain a full bidirec- tional sealing system, the liner is made from an elastomer polyurethane with an elastic surface to ensure an outstand- ing erosion resistance. The composite is resistant to seawater corrosion, and to most chemicals, and this new butterfly valve series has a 75 percent lower weight than equivalent steel or iron valves.

Westad has representatives in major market areas worldwide, and an estab- lished service network with stations in

Australia, Singapore, Japan, Korea, the

U.S. and Abu Dhabi. These stations carry a range of spare parts and have trained service engineers available at all times to render urgent assistance.
