The FCI is a nonprofit association of manufacturers of fluid control and conditioning equipment, including the following: pressure, temperature and volume regulators; modulating service control valves; solenoid valves; steam traps; fluid clarification equipment such as pipeline strainers; pressure and temperature gauges; process control switches; secondary pressure drainers; and related equipment.

The Fluid Sealing Association (FSA) is an international trade association. Founded in 1933, membership today represents more than 85 percent of the manufacturing capacity for fluid sealing devices in North America. Our membership is most heavily concentrated in North America, but also includes a number of companies in Europe, Asia and South America. Our primary Mission is to provide industry with the most current technical information on sealing systems and devices. This industry consensus education is intended to enable an environmentally focused assessment of best available sealing solutions based on rational Life Cycle Cost (LCC) principles. In cooperation with the European Sealing Association (ESA), the FSA also supports development of harmonized standards in all areas of fluid sealing technology. Our overall objective is to serve as a focus for these efforts to improve devices and to promote a safe, clean environment.

The Institute of Clean Air Companies (ICAC) is the nonprofit national association of companies that supply stationary source air pollution control and monitoring systems, equipment, and services. ICAC's members represent more than 100 air pollution control manufacturers that provide technology solutions to reduce emissions of hazardous air pollutants, particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), mercury, and greenhouse gases (GHG). ICAC's members provide cost effective technology solutions to meet increasingly stringent air permit requirements for a diverse set of industrial sectors including the chemical process industry.

The VMA represents U.S. and Canadian manufacturers of industrial valves and actuators, as well as suppliers to the Industry. We also represent the authorized valve repair facilities of our members through our affiliated group, the Valve Repair Council. The association publishes globally recognized Valve Magazine.
