Though you can find valve producer very easy, but it’s still very hard to decide who can be your supplier. One of the biggest reason is when customer browse supplier’s website, customer will find most of factory can produce many types of valves, the worse thing they use the same valve pictures show in website. That will confuse customer to judge who is the real producer.
So when customer want to place order on one Chinese valve producer, they always need to fly almost 10 hours to China to visit factory first. Because sometimes customer feels disappoint after they visited factory, the fact of factory is so much difference then imagine. It’s not only waste customer’s money also time.
