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.”
