DMI Young & Cunningham can trace its history back to 1924. Our other stalwart brand, Dobbie Mc Innes has an even longer history starting as a compass maker and later diversifying into gauging and finally control systems. Throughout this time the business philosophy has been to offer to the market the highest quality product at a competitive price, well designed and expertly manufactured, guaranteeing longevity of service.

We manufacture valves and other bronze castings to order, utilising the vast experience of the workforce here in North Shields. Many of our people have been with us for over 20 years. The General Manager, George Wood has been part of our team for 47 years and Mike Stafford, Technical Manager has been with us for 49 years. As well as manufacturing Y&C also stock our own valves and partner valves, ready for immediate despatch.

After the recent closure of John Mills’ foundry in Newcastle, we are now the only Bronze / Gunmetal Valve Foundry in the Tyne and Wear area.

We would like to take this opportunity to introduce and formally welcome David Hall to our Sales Team. David was with John Mills as their Sales Manager in Newcastle and has much experience of supplying the full John Mills range of valves. He is looking forward to receiving your calls and will respond rapidly to all enquiries. He also welcomes any opportunity to re-establish contact with his many offshore and petrochemical customers and assures them of the same efficient service they are accustomed to.

DMI Young and Cunningham hold a vast data base of MOD valves and associated equipment along with the NSN (NATO numbers) from its past supply to most of the Royal Navy’s fighting vessels. We are proud to work closely with the present day main contractors and suppliers of U.K. MOD. One of our specialities is Repair and Refurbishment of our previously supplied valves and actuators, many still in service after 20 to 30 years. We are supplying to this present day, the U.S. Navy with our bespoke Actuated Valve Chests and Patented Quick Closers.
