RIFOX products
In 1982, we entered into a sole agency contract with RIFOX (Germany) for the Japanese market. RIFOX drain traps feature the float mechanism for condensate discharge without compressed air losses, which was rare in Japan at that time. From then until now, the products have been highly reputed for their signature mechanism. Their simple structure enables long product life and low energy loss. RIFOX drain traps are commonly used for not only factory equipment but also peripheral equipment of large marine engines. We see these products as key items in our commitment to SDGs.
