Investment thesis

Valle produces ductile iron castings for municipal water systems, freight rail, and mining equipment. The business is a sole-source supplier for several specifications and has invested in low-emission electric melt capacity.

“Pelham backed our electric melt program when other buyers wanted to defer it. Two years later it is the reason we are winning new work.”
Robert Tannen Chief Executive, Valle Foundry Group
