Oliver Valves Ltd

Oliver Valves Ltd was established by Michael R. Oliver in 1979. Mr Oliver is a graduate mechanical and production engineer and was accountable for the initial design and market development of the product range. Dr Michael Oliver established Oliver Valves from his one-car garage in Hale. The company is formed with only 6 employees. The first needle valve products are designed, tooled up and marketed. In 2012, Dr Michael Oliver, founder of the Oliver Valves companies, was awarded an OBE by Her Majesty the Queen, recognizing his outstanding contributions to British manufacturing and engineering. In 2013, Oliver Valves reached a remarkable milestone with the manufacture of its largest valve to date - a 12" 2500 Twinsafe DBB valve weighing an impressive 8 1/2 tonnes. In 2024, Oliver Valves celebrates 45 years of engineering excellence, marking nearly half a century of innovation and quality.
