CEIR is the European trade association representing the taps and valves industry at European level. Since 1959, we have worked closely with EU institutions, standardisation bodies and industry stakeholders to ensure that the voice of European manufacturers is heard in policymaking and technical developments.

Based in Brussels, at the heart of European decision-making, CEIR represents manufacturers through national associations and collaborates with key organisations such as Orgalim, CEN and ISO. As a member, you become part of a recognised European network that contributes to shaping the future of the sector.

As a CEIR member, you can:

• Engage with European policy developments affecting the taps and valves industry

• Contribute to CEIR committees and working groups, sharing expertise and shaping industry positions

• Stay informed about legislative and technical developments that impact your business

• Connect with key industry players through events such as the CEIR Annual Congress and General Assembly

• Access insights, market perspectives and industry trends to support strategic decisions

• Help position the European taps and valves industry as a leader in innovation, quality and sustainability
  
  

Who can become a member?

Membership is open to national trade associations representing valve manufacturers in Europe. In countries where no such association exists, individual companies may apply for CEIR membership upon request.

Companies can be direct members according to CEIR’s statutes if there is no relevant national associations in the country where the company is based.

Direct member companies can participate the general assembly, without voting rights and are invited to participate working groups and committees.
