AxFlow B.V. Appointed Exclusive MODU ONE® Distributor Benelux

VEJLE, DENMARK, 7TH OF AUGUST 2025

MODU Valves A/S, the company behind MODU ONE® and its ecosystem of modular valves, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with AxFlow B.V., one of Europe’s leading distributors of fluid-handling technologies, covering the Benelux region: the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg.

Through this partnership, AxFlow becomes the local commercial presence for the MODU ONE® Ecosystem - offering the full range of valves, accessories, and spare parts, alongside engineering support and application expertise. AxFlow will also support direct replacements for legacy three- piece ball valves and enable customers to upgrade from conventional to modular valve solutions.

This partnership marks a key milestone in MODU Valves’ European growth strategy to scale MODU ONE® through technically capable, high-quality distribution partners serving critical process industries.

A STRONG STRATEGIC FIT

The partnership between MODU ONE® and AxFlow brings together two companies with a shared commitment to technical excellence and customer-centric engineering.

For AxFlow, the collaboration supports a broader strategic direction – to expand its product and service offering beyond pumps and into adjacent categories that complement their core. The Modular Valve Ecosystem from MODU ONE® represent exactly that: a new layer of value creation for AxFlow customers.

For MODU ONE®, AxFlow represents an ideal growth partner. As part of the Axel Johnson International group, AxFlow combines the strength of a large industrial group with the local presence and engineering capabilities needed to serve process customers at eye level.

“From the beginning, we saw a strong cultural and strategic match with AxFlow –
both companies are deeply rooted in engineering, with a sharp focus on the customer. This partnership gives us the right foundation in the Benelux region, with a technically strong partner who understands the real needs of the process industry.”
- Henrik Svendsen, CEO & Founder, MODU ONE®

AxFlow chose MODU ONE® for its ability to deliver the valve performance, modularity, and simplicity that modern process industries demand - without compromising on industrial-grade quality. As customers place increasing importance on configurability, serviceability, and digital integration, MODU ONE® represents a timely and strategic fit. More than a distribution agreement, the partnership reflects a long-term collaboration rooted in shared engineering values and a commitment to customer success.

“At AxFlow, we’re on a clear path to expand our offering beyond pumps - and valves are a natural next step. What stood out with MODU ONE® was not just the product, but the people and mindset behind this exciting new category of modular valves.”
- Paul ’t Hart, Managing Director, AxFlow B.V.

BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE WITH LARGE INSTALLED BASE

Between 1999 and 2023, a large number of “Series 88” and “Series 83” 3-piece ball valves were installed across Benelux. Manufactured at the same facility that now produces MODU ONE®, these valves built a reputation for reliability and low claim rates. MODU ONE® is the modern evolution of that original design - manufactured in the same factory, and fully backwards compatible with all installations dating back to 1999.

Butterfly valves control flow in large pipes where space is limited. They work in water treatment, power plants, and industrial processes. They are good for both on-off service and flow control.

As the official MODU ONE® partner, AxFlow B.V. offers:

• Seamless upgrades to MODU ONE® equivalents

• On-site identification and technical support

• Expert guidance on replacements, spare parts, and compatibility

If there is uncertainty about the origin or compatibility of installed valves, AxFlow can assist in identifying the product and recommending the appropriate replacement, spare part or upgrade to MODU ONE®.

THE PARTNERSHIP IS NOW LIVE

As of today, the partnership between MODU ONE® and AxFlow is operational. Joint market efforts have started. Customers across the Benelux region can now contact AxFlow for all inquiries related to MODU ONE®’s modular valve ecosystem.
