Walcro metering taps and shower valves

A predetermined flow time and flow rate is set inside the body to ensure the minimum amount required is delivered for handwashing or showering. Shuts-off automatically and thus cannot be left running unattended. No-hold feature available to ensure valve cannot be forcibly held open.
Walcro toilet and urinal flushing valves

The flushing valve excels in high volume traffic usage. The flow volume and flush times are adjustable on site to ensure the precise amount of water required can be set for the application and ensure no excess water is flushed away.
Walcro demand taps

The predetermined minimum required flow volume is set inside the tap. Demand action - The user must physically and continually hold the tap open to get water, e.g. bucket filling. Tap shuts-off immediately as user releases button and thus cannot be left running unattended.
Walcro pressure reducing valves

By lowering the water pressure you can reduce the available flow rate and thus can save water use.
Rada Mixing Valves

The Rada mixing valves reduce and control the hot water temperature to the showers and basins, thus providing anti-scald protection and reducing hot water consumption.
