When specifying valves for heating, cooling, potable water, and HVAC systems, access to the right product for the application is essential. The CORE range of valves has been developed to give contractors, installers, specifiers and merchants a comprehensive choice of dependable valve solutions, combining product quality, application suitability and genuine value.
From everyday isolation and control through to more specialist pressure, protection and flow-management applications, CORE offers an extensive range designed to meet the demands of modern building services installations.
A valve for every application
The CORE valve portfolio covers many of the key functions required across heating, cooling and potable water systems. The range includes valves and specialist products for isolation, flow regulation, pressure and temperature control, balancing and mixing.
This breadth means that CORE can provide solutions for both straightforward installations and more demanding applications, helping contractors and specifiers source compatible products from one trusted range.
For example, CORE ball valves are available in a variety of connection types, including screwed, compression and press-end configurations, with options including brass and DZR brass. For larger pipework systems, the CORE140 butterfly valve range provides a compact and versatile solution for both isolation and flow regulation.
Designed with application requirements in mind
Selecting a valve involves more than choosing the correct size. Temperature, pressure, connection type, operating conditions and flow requirements all need consideration.
This application-led approach gives installers and specifiers greater confidence that the selected valve suits the system, rather than relying on a generic product description.
Technical information available 24/7
Access to technical information is increasingly important on today’s projects. Installers may need an installation guide on site, while a contractor or specifier may need to check dimensions, pressure ratings, approvals or operating conditions outside normal office hours.
CORE makes technical documentation available online 24/7 through the SBS website. The valve product range is supported by downloadable technical documents, including installation and operating manuals, giving users access to essential information whenever they need it.

Quality backed by recognised approvals
Approvals such as WRAS, KIWA Reg-4, and NSF are particularly important when valves are specified for regulated applications. They provide an additional level of assurance that the product has been assessed against the requirements relevant to its intended use.
At the same time, CORE’s product documentation clearly states application limitations and installation requirements, helping users understand where and how individual valves should be used.
Quality without compromising value
Quality is central to CORE, with relevant approvals helping demonstrate suitability for specific applications
A comprehensive range reduces the need to source individual valve types from multiple suppliers, while consistent product information helps simplify specification and installation.
Value is therefore about more than purchase price. It is about having the right product available, reducing time spent sourcing alternatives, accessing the information needed to specify and install correctly, and selecting products that are appropriate for the application.
