The Origins of DEFINOX
Passion for mechanics
Definox came to life in 1968 by the collective will of a Vendéen (department in France) industrial group determined to diversify their activities. In 1968 they bought the patent ‘Lahousse’. This patent was for the first ball valve. This was the starting point for a new activity to be named Definox, dedicated to the Dairy industry.
