Over its years of operation, AVK has acquired a number of internationally recognised product brands, that are now part of the AVK Group. These brands contribute to our product package and solution capabilities to the market.

Wingfield, South Australia July 2025 – AVK, a global leader in water infrastructure solutions, has further expanded its capabilities by integrating internationally recognised brands into its portfolio — including the renowned Orbinox, a global authority in knife gate valve technology.

Orbinox a leading European knife gate manufacturer, brings over 50 years of expertise in designing and manufacturing knife gate valves, with a well-established reputation for quality and innovation. Operating under the philosophy of “think global, act local,” Orbinox consistently delivers high-performance valve solutions tailored to regional market needs.

Through this offering, AVK will now assemble and fit Orbinox knife gate valve components at its Wingfield facility in South Australia. This localised assembly process is set to significantly reduce lead times for customers across Australia and New Zealand, enhancing responsiveness and supply chain efficiency within the water industry.

“This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter for AVK and the broader water sector,” said an AVK spokesperson. “By offering Orbinox knife gate valves through local assembly, we’re ensuring quicker access to premium solutions that meet the evolving demands of the ANZ market.”
