LEADERS IN MARINE COMPOSITE FITTINGS
AQUAVALVE
The Tru-Design Aquavalve is the most versatile valve on the market today. The Aquavalve is
designed and made in New Zealand, for demanding marine sanitation applications.
The Aquavalve is typically used in marine toilet applications where protection for the environment
necessitates the need to control effluent discharge – in many countries this is governed by
regulation. The effluent can be held in a holding tank for later discharge overboard or to a shore
side facility.
The Tru-Design Aquavalve is moulded from a glass reinforced nylon composite. High strength,
high-modulus glass fibres impregnated into the nylon provides dramatic strength, stiffness,
toughness, and dimensional stability.
