API
| Extensive experience is complemented by a wide range of productsOne of the traditional suppliers of pneumatic components is API (Advanced Pneumatic Industries), which was founded in the late 1980s near Milan, Italy. More than three decades of experience have served API to improve the manufacture of all pneumatic components. At the turn of the new millennium, the company invested heavily in its own development and started its own production of valves and cylinders. Since 2007, the API catalogue contains the widest possible range in its field and the products soon travel all over the world. Today, the company offers production and assembly of valves, cylinders and mounting accessories not only in aluminium and steel, but also in stainless steel. In addition to the standard offer, API also offers the possibility of supplying solutions such as valve terminal assemblies or special ATEX designs. | ![]() |

Quality certificate at a good priceFor all the Italian company's product range, the customer can rely on it. These are products with good technical features, while the price tag is still within reasonable ranges. These words are confirmed by our hundreds of satisfied customers (mainly from industry) for whom API is the preferred brand. Beyond words, however, the reliability of the products is proven by meticulous quality systems such as ISO 9001, CISQ, ICIM or IQNet, whose certificates the products boast. The supply range currently includes pneumatic cylinders, grippers, swing drives, cylinder accessories and mounting brackets, solenoid, pneumatic, mechanical and manual valves, air treatment equipment, fittings, couplings and hoses. |
