Chaoda becomes a Shell certified supplier

Chaoda Valve Group Co., Ltd. has obtained Shell certification, which has stringent requirements for valve design, manufacturing, and quality management, making it one of only three valve companies in China to achieve this certification. Thanks to various quality management system certifications and other domestic and international professional certifications, Chaoda has a reliable guarantee for its quality management. This allows the company to undertake the research, development, and manufacturing of key products for various major domestic and international engineering projects, earning widespread praise and trust from users. This provides a reliable guarantee for the company’s rapid and steady development.
Shell, or Royal Dutch Shell, is one of the world’s largest energy companies. It possesses almost all relevant manufacturing qualifications for the valve industry both domestically and internationally and has obtained approval from most international end-users. This certification audit of Chaoda by Shell involved a three-step cyclic test of the valves at room temperature, high temperature, and low temperature, with a total of 100 opening and closing cycles and a requirement of zero leakage. This is a rigorous test of the valve’s performance.
It is understood that Shell, or Royal Dutch Shell, is one of the world’s largest energy companies. With nearly all relevant manufacturing qualifications in the domestic and international valve industry and approval from most international end-users, Chaoda Valve underwent a rigorous certification audit by Shell. The audit involved a three-stage cyclic test at room temperature, high temperature, and low temperature, with a total of 100 opening and closing cycles and zero leakage – a stringent test of valve performance. To help the company overcome technical challenges and successfully pass certification, the Zhejiang Pump and Valve Product Quality Inspection Center not only sent personnel to Hangzhou free of charge to calibrate the necessary measuring equipment, but also provided on-site guidance multiple times, conducted in-depth investigations in the workshop, and collaborated with the company’s engineers to develop test methods and procedures. This laid a solid foundation for Chaoda Valve’s successful Shell certification audit.
