History of Ross Valve
Founded in 1879 and headquartered in Troy, New York, Ross Valve Manufacturing Company has remained family-owned and operated for over 140 years. The company began as a specialty valve fabricator for steam and water systems and quickly earned a reputation for designing rugged, cast bronze and ductile iron valves for municipal infrastructure.
As water system demands evolved in the 20th century, Ross pioneered advancements in hydraulically actuated control valves for pressure regulation and surge protection. Their innovative valve solutions became industry standards across drinking water, wastewater, hydroelectric, and industrial applications.
Ross Valve continues to lead the control valve industry today, offering a full line of American-made, fully customizable valves with minimal maintenance requirements and long operational life. With valves in service for decades around the globe, Ross remains committed to delivering engineered performance and responsive support to public and private sector customers alike.
