Claude Laval Corporation Celebrates 40th Anniversary With Property Expansion

July 11, 2012 - PRLog -- The new parcel adjoins their current 5 acre facility, and initial plans include a 15,000 square foot building with provisions to double that size in the near future. This latest expansion aligns with the company’s 40th anniversary celebration in selling LAKOS filtration products and is a direct result of their immensely successful TwistIIClean line of home filters. TwistIIClean removes sand and sediment from water lines entering homes, in addition to other uses.

From 1972 to 2012, worldwide sales for LAKOS Separators and Filtration Solutions have grown by leaps and bounds. With a growing demand worldwide for new filtration technology, this new property expansion will help the company continue to meet innovative filtration requirements for years to come. Recent increases in productivity in Fresno operations have led to a decision to move some production lines in India back to the U.S. The Claude Laval Corporation has provided jobs to Californians for 4 decades, and survived many economic rises and declines, but in its 40th year now appears to be on the verge of its greatest growth surge ever.

While the primary use of the new property will be to handle increased production for the company’s successful new line of TwistIIClean sediment filters, other product lines will be optimized as well. Launched in late 2010, the  award-winning TwistIIClean has already received international success, quickly rising to be a popular choice for home filter installation professionals.
