Richter – Your Safety Is Our Goal. Worldwide.
Richter Chemie-Technik GmbH, a global leader in fully lined pump and valve solutions for 60 years, has expanded its product range to include quarter turn fully PFA lined plug valves & non-lubricated PTFE sleeved plug valves.
With more than 600 Chlor-Alkali plants worldwide and a market share of more than 20%, in addition to the proven range of lined pumps and valves Richter can now offer both fully PFA lined and PTFE sleeved plug valves to these plants as well as other plants that handle aggressive chemicals and process media.
Since 1957, Richter Chemie-Technik have been designing and manufacturing products for use with difficult fluids, regardless of whether they are corrosive, hazardous, pure or even ultrapure.
Ever more complex processes, together with growing demands on plant flexibility and safety, require the use of highly advanced and universally resistant plant components. With a complete range of plastic-lined, chemical process and special pumps, shut-off, control and safety valves and now with the addition of quarter turn plug valves, Richter Chemie-Technik together with Valve & Automation, offers a product spectrum which satisfies these demands to a very high degree. Many years of experience enable us to also control additional difficulties, such as high and very low temperatures, solids contamination or the risk of dry-running.
