Valve technology for
power and industry.
Founded in 2010 on the know-how of engineers with more than 30 years of valve design and manufacturing experience, KTS designs and builds Control Valves and Ball Valves for power plants, nuclear, LNG, and industrial plants. Design, manufacturing, and testing are carried out in-house, and the field experience behind them goes back into the products.

01 Who we are
KTS was founded in 2010, building on more than 30 years of valve design and manufacturing experience accumulated by its founding engineers. Since then, KTS has developed its own engineering capabilities to meet the demanding high-temperature and high-pressure conditions of power equipment and a wide range of industrial applications.
KTS was founded in 2010 on the technical know-how of engineers who had spent more than 30 years designing and manufacturing valves. Since then it has built up its own design and engineering capability while working to the high-temperature, high-pressure operating conditions of power equipment and the requirements of a wide range of industrial sites.
Spray Valve development under a government R&D program, Top Entry Ball Valve technology certified as Korean New Excellent Technology (NET), joint development with a power generator, and field demonstration projects — the design experience and field know-how built through that work goes straight back into KTS products and technology development.
