Since 1970…

Kurvalf’s story has begun with our founder’s (Hüseyin Kurumahmut) passion for manufacturing. He dedicated his life for this matter. He started working when he was young with his gun master father and brothers. Prior to focussing on valve manufacturing, he worked on several custom projects like machinery equipment and spare parts, steel constructions and silos for bulk materials with his brothers.

In the late 90s, when the natural gas distribution network started to spread all around the country, Hüseyin Kuruamahmut started to grow interest in maintenance and repair works of natural gas valves. After several years of experience in valve repair and maintenance, he decided to establish Kurvalf and started to produce ball valves with Kurvalf brand.
