In 1908, the first RegO® Products were designed for the gas welding industry. The name RegO® was derived from the words "Regulator" and "Oxygen". In 1923, the RegO® line was established in the young, but promising, LP-Gas industry. RegO® Product engineers, in conjunction with LP-Gas marketers, pioneered the development of propane valves and regulators to meet the needs of the rapidly growing industry. The RegO® MultiValve illustrates our tradition of innovation. In the 1930s, the MultiValve® was designed to combine several valve functions in one unit. This made more practical tank designs possible - with fewer openings and smaller, less cumbersome protective hoods. Over the years, the MultiValve® has kept pace with the changing LP-Gas industry - continuing to keep tank fabricating cost down and reducing operating expenses for LP-Gas dealers.
