You can reach out to me. We have USA distributors with inventory. We are in fact 3 hole machine formed Zirconia Ceramic + FKM (Viton) gaskets.
AVD is a crazy story… - they’re splitting to a new company called AVEO. AVD’s marketing team tried to split from the manufacturing team. It’s the same play that happened with Verified Smart carts.
They (Verified before they were Verified) repped AVD for a while - built up the marketing and socials, then quite literally stole the socials and contacts. They swapped to a cheaper manufacturer who tried to duplicate the product, cut corners, did not make compliance, and went down.
The marketing team (who I will not name as I don’t want to get swept up in the drama) who owned distribution for AVD in USA tried to pull a very similar move. They even got the plant manager to switch sides.
The owner and brains behind AVD, Johnathan, told them to kick rocks (the details are pretty funny to be honest) and now he’s started a new brand called AVEO. AVEO is what AVD wants to be but can’t. The QA, connections, and manufacturing practices went with J, and now AVD as a brand is sinking. Failure rates are up, quality is down, and there’s little to no prospects for innovation.
This is combined with the fact that there are huge pending lawsuits for IP over AVD that will take years before the dust settles. If you’re thinking of using AVD or already use them, reach out to us. We can put you through to people who are in the know and give you the low down, and connect you to the best possible prices for AVEO (The true AVD’s new name if I’m being honest… marketing is useless if it’s not backed by solid product and best practices).
AVEO is pricing out AVD and matching / beating them in quality. We’re partnering with AVEO to offer the best metal and the best zirconia carts on the market. ASCERA for Zirconia and AVEO for metal.
We will be in ICBC Berlin, and Cannacon Chicago trade shows this year, and AVEO is a part of our booth. So if any of these things resonates with you, give me a DM and we’ll chat. If you’re planning to be at the events, let’s connect!
