“Having Valve Solutions, Inc. operating in Forsyth County strengthens the County’s industrial and manufacturing base, brings skilled technical jobs to the area, and contributes to the region’s reputation as a hub for advanced manufacturing and infrastructure-support industries,” said Forsyth County Economic Development Manager Jennifer Mihalcoe.

At this location, Valve Solutions, Inc. will perform key functions including valve assembly and automation integration, engineering and testing, procurement and logistics, and customer and field support. The operation will employ 25-30 staff members, with plans to expand to 35-45+ positions as production and project capacity grow.

The professionalism, community-minded approach and hands-on support we received have made this a truly positive experience,” said Valve Solutions, Inc. Director of Operations Justin Hammond. “We are proud to now be part of Forsyth County and look forward to continued partnership.”
