Companies use our industrial valves in the production of food, beverages, chemicals
and pharmaceuticals throughout the world. Tyco Valves & Controls, the world’s largest
valve company, continues to expand across the globe. We have significantly increased
our product offerings in China and other parts of Asia, Sweden, Australia and Latin
America. Our steel tubing business expanded, as we acquired U.K.-based Glynwed
Metal Processing, a maker of pipes and tubular products. This represents Tyco’s first
initiative to take the Allied Tube & Conduit manufacturing technology and products into
other parts of the world. Tyco Flow Control also acquired
Central Sprinkler Company, a major manufacturer of fire sprinkler
products throughout the world. Recurring revenues rose sharply,
as we signed new contracts to inspect and recondition valves for
some of our largest industrial customers.
Our fast-growing Earth Tech division recently entered into
a joint venture with Venezuela’s state petrochemical company,
