Truflo Ltd originally made valves for the oil and gas market as well as for the naval marine market. In 1994, then owners Charles Baynes plc decided that Truflo Marine would focus on the naval marine industry.Charles Baynes, renamed FCX International plc, was quoted on the London Stock Exchange until a management buyout in July 2002. This created a privately owned group of primary flow control distribution and manufacturing companies. The Distribution Divisions of the group were sold off in 2005, but the Truflo International group remained to focus solely on the specialist manufacturing of valves, instruments and related flow control products.In May 2006, the international engineering business IMI plc bought the Truflo International Group in a deal worth £113m. The future of IMI is based on two business areas – Flow Control (Severe Service, Fluid Power, Indoor Climate) and Retail Dispense (Beverage Dispense, Merchandising Systems). Truflo Marine Ltd is now a Fluid Controls business of IMI plc, providing high integrity products and specialist services to the naval marine, desalination and civil nuclear industries.
