Ygros Valves originally started as an internal division of Carollo srl, an engineering company with more than 50 years of experience in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
In 2004, the Ygros project began to take shape thanks to the challenge of particularly corrosive applications. That's when the idea of producing an innovative, springless check valve was born.
Over the years, the company has developed a patented magnetic technology that provides a state-of-the-art, maintenance-free check valve, ensuring unrivalled standards of hygiene, durability and efficiency.
Ygros was founded as an independent company in 2010 and the first valve was immediately patented: it was the EDF model, which is still the company's best-selling product today. Over the years, it has been followed by many new models to suit different applications: Wafer, Pharmaball, Aggroball and the latest models, YEV and YSV, which were added to the Ygros range in 2020.
Ygros valves are an innovative and unique product that combines the use of high-quality materials with a completely new technology.
In fact, Ygros valves can solve the most common problems caused by spring-loaded check valves, such as breakage or jamming of the spring itself (with consequent problems at the industrial plant) and corrosion of the materials, while requiring lower energy consumption to keep the valve fully open. Ygros valves also have high standards of hygiene and efficiency, require less maintenance and are built to last.
Ygros valves are suitable for all installation positions (including vertical with downward flow).
Each model is suitable for specific applications: the EDF valve is mostly used in CIP systems, in the pharmaceutical industry and sometimes in the food industry; Wafer valve is used to treat less valuable applications, such as dirty water; Pharmaball is designed specifically for the pharmaceutical industry, while Aggroball for the chemical industry. YEV valve is suitable for the food and beverage industry, has a lower cost and was developed to be purchased in larger quantities; YSV valve has the property of being extractable.
The EDF valve and YEV valve can also be selected in their 3-A certified version, manufactured specifically for the US market.
At Ygros, everyone plays a valuable role and contributes to the progress of the company.
The team spirit is considered a fundamental value and necessary to achieve new, ambitious goals. The company aims to achieve concrete results with full satisfaction of customer needs.
