Valve safety interlocking specialist Smith Flow Control (SFC) has celebrated 30 years of protecting people and assets at process plants worldwide. SFC was formed in April 1985 by Malcolm Brown, Mike Smith and current managing director Mike D’Anzieri.
The company now employs a total of 78 staff, mostly at its headquarters in Witham, Essex, but also in regional offices in Australia, China, India, the Netherlands and the United States. A third of all staff have been with the business for more than 10 years.
SFC introduced the coded card linear key concept to interlocking technology. The firm’s product range includes a full suite of mechanical interlocks for a wide range of applications and valve management products. More recently, new product development has diversified into electronics and RFID technology.
