About us

Water means life.

But how does it get to you?

Many people don’t think twice when turning the tap and enjoying a glass of fresh water, or luxuriating in a hot bath on a cold winter’s day. Only rarely do people wonder about the journey the water has been on before it flows out of the tap. Hawle products are used to ensure that water is distributed and regulated cleanly and reliably, from the source to the home.

With an extensive range of isolation, distribution and control valves, as well as pipe connections and fittings for drinking water and wastewater systems, Hawle plays a major part in ensuring a reliable water supply. We are deeply committed to finding the best solutions for our customers and meeting the highest quality demands. This quality commitment stretches all the way back to the pioneer Engelbert Hawle, whose passion for inventing and refining can still be seen in Hawle today.

The Hawle Austria Group remains a family-run company based in Austria, but is now active all over the world. We are developing new business sectors with a clear strategy that places “water” at the focus of our actions. Even though the UN declared this vital resource a human right in 2010, millions of people still do not have access to clean water.

Hawle takes its responsibility seriously and sets high standards for all its corporate processes. As a founding member of the “Quality Assurance Association for Heavy-Duty Corrosion Protection” (Gütegemeinschaft Schwerer Korrosionsschutz, GSK), Hawle has its own process approval procedures at all its production sites. This means that it can guarantee consistently high quality worldwide.
