Company Profile

Carten Controls designs, manufactures and supplies high-performance valves and flow solutions for ultra-high-purity systems. Carten works in industries where cleanliness, containment and safe delivery are critical for process efficiency, performance and reliability.

Our valves are utilized in a wide variety of applications and systems.  These include bulk gas delivery, lateral distribution systems, purifiers, filter-skids, purifiers, valve manifold boxes (VMBs) and valve manifold panels (VMPs), gas panel, hook-up and gas cabinet applications.  Carten valves and custom built flow solutions are used in the high-tech and demanding industries of the semiconductor, LED, solar (photovoltaic), laboratory, LCD and fibre-optics sectors.

Carten Controls’ valves are capable of supporting ultra-high-purity media delivery and toxic, corrosive and explosive applications in a contained and efficient system.

Founded in 1970 to develop, manufacture and supply ultra-high-purity valves to meet the demands of the emerging semiconductor industry, Carten has grown considerably and is firmly established as a leading and innovative valve supplier to blue-chip global customers in the semiconductor, LED, photovoltaic and LCD markets.

The Carten group has two high-tech production facilities – located in Waterford, Ireland and Connecticut, USA – to manufacture valves for global markets.

Both facilities utilise the same design, production processes and quality management systems to ensure all our products meet the organization's intrinsic quality standards.  Carten is continually investing in new manufacturing and engineering technologies to deliver market driven solutions and products that meet global customers’ needs.

Quality and continuous improvement are the philosophy of the company’s management and staff. We are committed to providing the highest-quality products, service and support for our clients that meet customer expectations. Achieving complete customer satisfaction is central to our business philosophy, which is reflected through our actions, relationships, processes and operations.

Our commitment to our customers and quality is demonstrated through our on-going membership and compliance to the IS EN ISO9001:2015 QMS program and by the implementation of continuous improvement initiatives throughout the company.

Carten Controls utilizes leading-edge sophisticated technologies to create engineer to order valve solutions. We work with clients to create unique flow solutions, and provide advice and engineer assistance on designs with the capacity to provide longevity for distribution systems.
