Connecticut-based Conval, an industry leader in severe service valves, will celebrate its 50th anniversary on November 7, 2017. The second-generation, family-owned business was founded by Chester “Chet” Siver in 1967. Over the years, the original 3,000 square foot facility on Field Road has been expanded several times, plus two adjacent buildings have been constructed for a combined square footage of 50,000 square feet.
To consolidate its operations under one roof and meet future demand, Conval purchased the former Quad Graphics building at 96 Phoenix Avenue in Enfield, Connecticut and is in the process of renovating the facility to meet its needs. The company anticipates moving into the 72,000 square foot facility in the spring of 2018.
