Valve Manufacturers Association Information

The Valve Manufacturers Association of America represents the interests of nearly 100 North American manufacturers of valves and actuators. Collectively, members account for approximately 80% of the total industrial valve shipments out of U.S. and Canadian facilities. The North American valve industry supplies approximately 35% of worldwide valve demand, and VMA member companies employ 20,000 men and women directly in supporting jobs. VMA is the only organization exclusively serving U.S. and Canadian manufacturers of industrial valves, actuators and controls. Founded in 1938, VMA is headquartered in Washington, DC. If you make valves, actuators or controls, or supply products to valve, actuator and control manufacturers, and you have substantial manufacturing activity in the United States or Canada, you may be eligible for membership in the Valve Manufacturers Association.
