About Us
Over 40 years of experience supplying high-quality manual valves and automated valves.
Founded in 1980, Omega Valves are a specialist privately owned company that stocks and supplies high quality manual and automated valves to an extensive clientele covering many industry sectors.
Our aim is to work closely with you to ensure that once specification, timescale and scope is confirmed, we are able to supply the very best package to ensure each of these elements are fulfilled. Your enquiry will be handled by a Director who will personally manage your project from start to finish and who you will have direct contact with on a day to day basis.
We recognise that no two clients are the same and accordingly the service which we offer reflects this unique approach by offering you a completely tailored solution. You may have extremely specific requirements down to the smallest details such as documentation, packing, product design and Certification. It is our ability to consistently incorporate and deliver these small details which makes the biggest difference to you.
We represent a number of named manufacturers who are listed on our website but we also represent other approved manufacturers in Europe and Worldwide whose products we are able to offer.
Leadership
Joe Horton
Business Development Director
Joe joined Omega Valves in 2003 having enjoyed a successful sales career prior to that. He is one of the two sons of Chas Horton who originally founded the business in 1980.
Joe has extensive experience of the technical & quality side of the business having spent a number of years in the assembly and test area of our Biggin Hill premises before graduating to a more business development role. In recent years Joe has developed new business with existing clients and built a portfolio of standalone new clients.
Joe’s skills range from tracking down that elusive valve that other supplies cannot to co-ordinating, specifying and supplying 100’s of valves of different type, size and material on large and involved engineering projects.
You are likely to meet Joe should you be an existing or new customer of Omega Valves, as Joe makes it a priority to meet with all clients face to face in order to fully understand his clients.
Joe says of his role at Omega Valves “My view has always been that there is no substitute for meeting my clients face to face in order to really get to grips with what they are looking to achieve. Once I know what they are looking to do I can then set about looking at how I can help them achieve it. As a result some of my best clients see me as part of their team, and call on me as if I am working with them, not for them”.
Dan Horton
Operations Director
Danny joined Omega Valves in 1997 having enjoyed a successful career in the leisure industry. He is one of the two sons of Chas Horton who originally founded the business in 1980.
Dan is responsible for the day to day running of the business and having spent some time working in each area of the business in the past he knows the business inside out. Today he manages the smooth running of our sales office, assembly & test area, and warehouse. He also administers the financial side of the business and communicates daily with our approved worldwide suppliers and manufacturers.
Dan’s attention to detail and diligence ensure that timescale sensitive orders and projects are progressed and managed personally by a Director with the power to make things happen. Dan manages some of our key clients personally, ensuring they have a single point of contact.
Dan says of his role at Omega Valves “Nowadays when you call most companies you get a touch tone system or you get passed from pillar to post as your account can be managed by different people. Pinning someone down to help you is near on impossible and so irritating for a client. I try and cut all that out by being the single point of contact – not only does this save our clients time but also ensures consistency in the management of their accounts.”
