MONTERO
MONTERO ( full name MONTERO FyE, S.A. ) is the direct successor of manufacturing activities begun in 1895 by Francisco Montero Loizaga, grandparent of the present company's Chairman, in the field of thermal insulation and sealing materials.
At present MONTERO is focused in the production and sales of sealing products for industrial fluid handling systems:
- BELPA® compressed gasket sheets for flanged joints.
- MONTERO® mechanical packings for valves, pumps and other equipment.
- BELPAFLEX expansion joints.
MONTERO is also involved in the manufacture of high temperature BARLAN® boards and textiles for thermal insulation, and is a distributor of UCAR Carbon's GRAFOIL® expanded graphite products.
Research and development is a high priority for MONTERO, with its own rubber, textile and paper know-how base. MONTERO's lab can perform state-of-the-art tests on gasket materials along the latest standards ( DIN 28090, EN 13555, DIN 52913, ASTM F 36 ) and is now (2009) installing a new advanced rig for fugitive emissions testing of valve stem packings. These resources are used both for R&D work on new product development and for customer application support.
MONTERO sells in over 45 countries around the world and is certified to ISO 9002 by Lloyds. Important end users and OEMs are serviced directly by MONTERO's own sales force. In Portugal and Spain, a network of specialised distributors, with MONTERO's technical assistance, attend with their local stocks to the needs of the main areas of demand.
Sales in other European markets are made through specialised agents, distributors and technical wholesalers. MONTERO has achieved a well established presence in some Latin American countries, and owns 50% of a manufacturing joint venture in Mexico.
