The 3rd agent seminar, 1st for Valco Group, took place in Guichon’s facilities on last June 6th to 9th.
This seminar allowed the international agents to have a technical training on Guichon, SNRI & Malbranque brands, but also to exchange, more or less formally, with the sales team and the employees of Valco.
Here is the video of this 3 days :
What is your greatest satisfaction ?
« I became European champion per C1 team with avec Denis Gargaud and Cédric Joly, my French team partners. For our 1st race we do perform a great run without penalties. The course was really crosses focused (we have to cross each other in the red gates….) it was not easy! We really had a good time »
Any anecdote to share with us?
« On Saturday, I ran a quite unusual race as I was on a two-seater boat with Denis Gargaud so that the French team could compete as C2 per team. We had never been in the same boat before. 20min warm-up to try to find our rhythm, sync. and go! It went quite well and we reached the 3rd place. This race was touching as it was the last one of this category. The International Federation decided to remove it from the Olympics in favor of the lady single-seater canoe in order to comply with the principle of parity (one of the criteria which is particularly considered by the IOC to maintain or not a sport in the Olympic program). Concerning the French C2 crew Klauss/Pêche, they did the show by cutting their boat after the finish line, as a symbolic gesture of the C2 and their careers’ end»
New logo, new visual identity to carry out VALCO GROUP ambitions
Ruffec, 2018, June 06 : With an international presence through its subsidiaries/JV (Algeria, South Africa, Australia, China) and in France by means of 4 production units (Ruffec, Bordeaux, Thiétreville and Chambéry) VALCO Group France is one of the world leaders in the field of multi-technologies industrial valves with the D2FC, Guichon, SNRI, Malbranque, VVS brands. It is specialized in the design, production and maintenance of industrial valves in the fields of oil & gas, energy, natural gas industry with some applications in LNG transport, nuclear, hydroelectricity, refineries, chemistry and petrochemicals, plastics, ….
Constituted in 2009 with SNRI, Malbranque and VVS companies, VALCO Group made the acquisition of Guichon Valves in 2015 (specialist in customized high-performance valves), then D2FC Energy Valves in 2017 (specialist in dam valves for hydroelectricity). As a result of these acquisitions, which enabled to raise the turnover to 50.8 M€ and teams to 380, VALCO Group decides today to make its graphic charter evolve and adopts a new logo as a clear expression of its ambitions.
« This new identity aims at creating a spirit of belonging shared between the different brands of the group, expressing our dynamism and who we are: a worldwide leading expert in valves solutions with a know-how recognized for more than 90 years », asserts Stéphane Galichet, CEO of the VALCO group.
A new logo which is reflecting the ambition and strength of the company, proud to design and manufacture resistant high range products, in a wide range of industrial valves as a result of the synergies and experience of each group entity. This precise and sober contemporary typography combines technological seriousness and professionalism of the products range, in the permanent quest for innovative support solutions.
The icon takes the brands’ color code over: blue is for industrial environment technical touch but also symbolically recalls the valves’ fluid control. Black color represents the company strength and capacity to create value and innovate.
This visual identity is upgraded with a signature reflecting VALCO commitment: « Leading expert in valves solutions » and the will to pursue its international expansion, closely with its customers.
In the same way, each company and brand within the group has upgraded its logo, allowing to disclose a distinct identity true to each history and origin while signifying their belonging to the Valco group.
