Complete Valve and Actuation Solutions for Modern Industry

Why Fox Global Is Your End-to-End Partner

In today’s industrial landscape, valves alone are no longer enough. To achieve safe, reliable, and efficient control of fluids, gases, and slurries, industries require fully integrated valve and actuation solutions — engineered, supplied, and supported by experts who understand both the application and the operating environment.

At Fox Global, we specialise in delivering complete valve and actuation solutions, combining world-class valve technology with electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic actuation systems. As a family-owned and Australian-owned business, Fox Global supports customers across energy, water, mining, processing, infrastructure, and manufacturing with solutions designed for performance, longevity, and compliance.

This article explores Fox Global’s comprehensive valve offering, our full range of actuation technologies, and how working with trusted global manufacturers allows us to deliver tailored solutions for even the most demanding applications.

More Than Valves: Complete Actuation Solutions

Many suppliers can provide a valve. Fewer can provide a fully engineered, application-matched valve and actuator package — and fewer still can support it across its entire lifecycle.

Fox Global offers:

Valve selection and sizing
Actuator selection and configuration
Electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic actuation
Modulating and on/off control
Spring return and double-acting systems
End-to-end technical support

By delivering complete solutions, we help reduce installation complexity, minimise downtime, and ensure long-term operational reliability.

Our Valve Solutions Portfolio

Fox Global supplies a complete range of industrial valves designed for isolation, control, throttling, and safety across a wide variety of media and operating conditions.

Valve Types We Supply

Butterfly valves
Ball valves
Gate valves
Knife gate valves
Globe valves
Check valves
Control valves
Severe service valves

Our valve solutions are suitable for:

Liquids, gases, vapours, and slurries
Corrosive and abrasive media
High-pressure and high-temperature environments
Critical shutdown and safety systems

Electric Actuation Solutions

Electric valve actuation is increasingly used across modern industrial facilities due to its precision, automation capability, and low maintenance requirements.

Electric Actuator Options

Electric on/off actuators
Electric modulating actuators for precise flow control
Integration with PLC, SCADA, and DCS systems
Intelligent positioners and feedback systems

Benefits of Electric Actuation

High accuracy and repeatability
Ideal for remote and automated operations
Reduced reliance on plant air
Lower long-term maintenance costs

Electric actuators are commonly used in water treatment, power generation, HVAC, renewables, and process automation applications.

Pneumatic Actuation Solutions

Pneumatic actuation remains one of the most widely used and trusted technologies in industrial environments, particularly where speed, safety, and reliability are critical.

Pneumatic Configurations Available

Spring return (fail-safe) actuators
Double-acting actuators
Air-operated control systems
NAMUR mounting and accessories

Advantages of Pneumatic Actuation

Fast response times
Inherently safe in hazardous environments
Simple, robust design
Excellent for emergency shutdown applications

Fox Global’s pneumatic solutions are widely used in oil and gas, mining, chemical processing, and bulk material handling.

Hydraulic Actuation Solutions

For applications requiring high torque and extreme reliability, hydraulic actuation is often the preferred choice.

Hydraulic Actuator Capabilities

High-torque output for large valves
Designed for severe service environments
Suitable for offshore, mining, and heavy industrial use
Can be configured with manual override and fail-safe systems

Hydraulic actuation is particularly valuable in applications where space is limited or where large valves must be operated under high loads.

Modulating vs On/Off Control

Fox Global supplies actuation solutions for both on/off isolation and modulating control applications.

On/Off Actuation: Used for isolation, emergency shutdown, and safety systems
Modulating Actuation: Provides precise control of flow, pressure, or temperature

Our team works closely with customers to ensure the selected actuator delivers the required control accuracy, response time, and fail-safe behaviour.
